Seems like the season for getting injured. And stress fractures in the leg seem to be the most popular choice.
It started off with basketball player Yao Ming of the Houston Rockets, followed by a whole host of Olympic track stars who are likely to miss the Beijing games because of it, including Paula Radcliffe. And now looks like I'm in some elite company as no less a name than Tiger Woods joins the list!!!
Just read this.........
"Tiger also suffered a double stress fracture of his left tibia two weeks before the U.S. Open, ignoring doctors' advice to take six weeks off to let it heal. And he still won the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines, going 91 holes over five days on a knee that was getting worse."
And this was less than two months after having arthoscopic surgery in his left knee...........remarkable!!
