| Abstract | This is the first case report of an acute bucket-handle tear in an amateur golfer. The injury occurred during the follow-through phase of the golf swing. The rate of incidence of knee injuries in golfers is only 10%. There is a difference in the injury pattern between amateur and professional golfers; amateurs are more likely to sustain injuries related to poor swing technique. Professional golfers, on the other hand, report more injuries related to overuse. Although forces in the knee are relatively minor in this sport, acute injuries can happen when poor technique is used. |
