Troy Merritt doesnt know when he will return to the PGA Tour, but he does know one thing: Ill have one less rib and Ill be a much shorter dude, he said with a laugh.Last Wednesday, Merritt had the top rib on his left side removed after being diagnosed with Thoracic outlet syndrome last year. The syndrome occurs when blood vessels or nerves in the space between the collarbone and the first rib are compressed and led to Merritt having a large blood clot removed from his left arm last August.I didnt want to be on the blood thinners for the rest of my life and after getting off to a good start this season and having won last year [Barbasol Championship] it seemed like a good time to have the surgery, Merritt said from his home in Idaho.Merritt had the surgery at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas and was able to fly home on Saturday. Major league pitchers who have had the procedure take between three to six months to recover, but doctors are confident Merritts recovery shouldnt take that long.Merritt plans to begin rehabilitation on Friday and said he can start chipping and putting in three to six weeks.The pain isnt bad at all and there was no nerve damage, which was good, he said.Merritt is currently 41st on the season-long points list following a solid fall season that included a tie for fourth place at the season opener in Napa, Calif. Hes also exempt on Tour for two years following his victory at the Barbasol.
After falling behind in his must-win match against Patrick Cantlay, Tiger played his last six holes in 6 under par for a 4-and-2 victory and a spot in the Round of 16 against Rory McIlroy.

The USGA didn't cave. They cut fescue on just 4 holes and on at least 2 of those holes, the area was cut was pretty much nowhere near play. The reason why it was done was because there was over an inch of rain that fell Monday night/Tuesday morning as well as high winds Monday evening so there were spots that were too thick or the pruning was done for aesthetic reasons.
