Funk's surgery sideline 4-6 weeks

Posted: Thursday May 15, 2008 06:39AM ET

Fred Funk yesterday underwent an arthroscopic procedure on his right knee that will keep him from playing competitive golf for the next four to six weeks. Funk underwent the procedure after his knee was drained Monday, a procedure that also revealed loose particles and minor cartilage damage. Funk said his knee has been bothering him for some time and that he "tweaked it" getting out of a bunker at the 13th hole in the second round of the Players Championship last Friday. Funk missed the cut in an event he won three years ago, when he became the oldest champion in tournament history.
