After hitting the green on our short par 3 2nd hole in a 4BBB knock out comp slipped on some wet stones, went down like a sack of S**t and my leg went under me, felt something pop, got up and tried to walk it off, by the 5th I was done knee size of ballon stretching my trousers.

Been to A&E appears X ray revealed nothing broken but I've have torn ligaments, Knee Brace, Crutches and and pain killers for at least a week and no golf for at least a mont.

What the heck am I going to do, at least I can't go Christmas Shopping!

Ouch. Really sorry to hear this. Hope it gets better soon. Howling winds, rain, frost and snow - You ain't missing much

I hear the French judge gave you 4.9 for artistic content!

Sorry, but I couldn't resist trying to put a smile on your face. Good luck with the recovery... at least you did it in winter.

Maybe I was only listening to the upside, based on your experience it might be worse than I thought!

Fundy I hope you get good news Monday!
