Kevin Streelman to have surgery for torn meniscus in coming weeks

Kevin Streelman announced Saturday over social media that he will require surgery to repair his injured knee.

“It saddens me to report that I suffered a knee injury the other day. The MRI showed a tear in my (meniscus) that will require surgery in the upcoming weeks,” Streelman wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

“I’m beyond appreciative of my family, friends, and sponsors that continue to stand by me during this difficult time. After the necessary rehab I’ll be excited to return to the (PGA Tour) even stronger than before. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. Much love.”

Streelman, 46, has captured a pair of PGA Tour titles. He won the then-Tampa Bay Championship in 2013 and the Travelers Championship in 2014.

Steelman recorded a T-15 finish at the Farmers Insurance Open in January.
