Commissioner Finchem on Woods' knee surgery announcement
"For an athlete as talented and competitive as Tiger Woods, taking the rest of the season off must have been an incredibly difficult, yet necessary decision, one that we understand and support completely. The fact that he needs additional surgery only makes his performance and victory at last week's U.S. Open all the more impressive. First and foremost, our concern -- as it would be for any of our players facing surgery or illness -- is for Tiger's health and overall well-being, both on and off the golf course. We wish him the best toward a speedy recovery." -- PGA TOUR Commissioner Tim Finchem regarding Tiger's announcement that he is taking the remainder of the season off to have/recover from reconstructive knee surgery
