Woods undergoes knee surgery again

UNDATED (AP) - Tiger Woods has undergone surgery today to repair
cartilage damage in his left knee, a procedure that's expected to
keep him out of action at least a month.
The surgery comes two days after Woods finished two shots behind
Trevor Immelman in the Masters. Woods likely will miss The Players
Championship but should be ready for the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines
in June.
It's the third time he's undergone surgery on the knee since
1994. He gave no indication his knee was bothering him the first
three months of the season as he won his first four starts. But his
agent says Woods had been experiencing pain in the knee since the
middle of last year.
