Florida - Knee surgery has kept Tiger Woods away from golf since June. Off the course, he's kept a busy schedule.
Woods said on Wednesday he has kept busy with his foundation, the design of three golf courses and fulfilling corporate sponsor obligations during the last month. He's had time to take his daughter, Sam, to a Halloween party.
"She dressed up as Tigger," Woods said in a monthly newsletter, referring to the Winnie the Pooh character.
During the last month, Woods caddied for a contest winner at Torrey Pines club in San Diego, introduced his new golf course design in Mexico, raised $700 000 for his Tiger Woods Learning Center through his fourth annual block party, conducted a golf clinic during two corporate days with Nike, and filmed a commercial with baseball star Derek Jeter.
As for the golf?
"The knee is progressing," Woods said. "I'm working hard every day and there have been no setbacks. I've actually started to do a little chipping and putting, but no full swings. That's not going to happen until early next year."
