Knee, Jerk, Reaction

You know what it’s like. You make a flippant comment with your tongue in your cheek and then it spectacularly backfires on you. Yes, we’re looking at you Retief Goosen.

Goosen was quoted saying: "Nobody knows if he (Woods) was just showing off". When asked if he thought Woods might have been faking the extent of his knee pain, he replied: "I think he was."

Cue many a raised eyebrow. Everyone knows what happens if you make a Tiger angry. You get eaten 10&8 in your next match-play face off.


Retief, hoping the cage will protect him.

However, Goosen told Reuters before playing in the BMW International Open pro-am that he had not been serious.

"I was joking, really. I mean, how do I know? I never spoke to the guy," Goosen said.

"He's got a sore knee, yes, and at the end of the day it's a great achievement by Tiger winning his 14th major.

"But I wouldn't really know how sore or not his knee was. Obviously if his knee was really bad he would have withdrawn.

"I won't say I knew he was faking it. How would I know?

Well Retief the proof is in the press release. Woodsy is going to have another op on his knee and miss the rest of the season. The World’s number one said, "Now, it is clear that the right thing to do is listen to my doctors, follow though with this surgery, and focus my attention on rehabilitating my knee."

Now that’s taking the charade a little far. It’s also been revealed thatieve these are yoursTiger has a double stress fracture in his leg. That’s right he won the US Open with a bum knee and a broken leg.

We’re thinking with his ridiculous pile of cash and friends in high places Woods could get a bionic replacement. Just call him Leads Majors the Six Billion Man.


The person for resposible for mocking this up has been fired.
