Tiger Woods gets cortisone shot

Tiger Woods is back to work after getting cortisone shots in his right ankle 10 days ago.  Woods will continue to work on his craft and film a commercial. 

Mark Steinberg, his agent at IMG, said Woods had intended all along to have the shot after the Chevron World Challenge, which ended Dec. 5. Woods has nearly two months off before his next tournament at Torrey Pines.

"This was always the plan," Steinberg said. "He's looking at 2011 as a big year for him."

At this year's Masters, Woods revealed he ruptured the Achilles tendon in his right leg in December 2008 while recovering from knee surgery. Steinberg says it still causes soreness, prompting the cortisone shot.
