KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City golfing legend Tom Watson took to social media this weekend to let everyone know he is recovering from a recent go-kart accident.

Watson, 73, posted on Twitter that he required surgery on his left shoulder after rolling over a go-kart. 

He thanked his doctor Felix Savoie and said he was recovering without any pain.

Barry Hyde, a member of Watson’s team, told KSHB 41 News that the surgery went well but that he didn’t have any additional information on how long Watson would be sidelined.
