Woods had a shot in right ankle: Tiger Woods had a cortisone shot in his right ankle 1 weeks ago to relieve lingering soreness. By Tuesday, he was back to work hitting discount golf clubs and filming a commercial for EA Sports.
Mark Steinberg, his agent at IMG, said Woods had intended all along to have the shot after the Chevron World Challenge, which ended Dec. 5. Woods' next tournament is the Farmers Insurance Open, which starts Jan. 27 at Torrey Pines in San Diego.
"This was always the Callaway X-24 Hot Irons ," Steinberg said. "He's looking at 2011 as a big year for him."
At this year's Masters, Woods revealed he ruptured the Achilles tendon in his right leg in December 2008 while recovering from knee surgery. Steinberg says it still causes soreness, prompting the cortisone shot.
Steinberg spoke in response to Internet chatter Woods had torn his Achilles while skiing. He said Woods has not been on skis in more than three years.(Callaway Diablo Forged Irons )
