Tiger Woods injured his knee at some point in 2007, while the exact details remain a bit unclear. Theories proposed have included that this occurred while running with his dog, while training with the Navy Seals, and even while offering a celebratory fist pump at the 2007 PGA championship. Bottom line, all we know is that at some point he tore his anterior cruciate ligament and tibial stress fracture. Often times, ACL tears occur following pathological hyperextension of the knee. In addition, with rupture of the ligament it is common for the tibia and femur to traumatically collide as a result of the lost stability of the joint.
