IRVING, Texas – Just five weeks ago, Colt Knost thought his season was over.

After a tie for 14th at the RBC Heritage, Knost was informed that his ailing left thumb was more serious then he originally thought and could require surgery.

When he returned home to Scottsdale, Ariz., an MRI revealed it was a small cyst that was causing the discomfort and that he only needed rest, not surgery.

“Probably the best thing that could have happened, taking two weeks off, refreshed and honestly came back out and played pretty good at Charlotte (T-41 at the Wells Fargo Championship), a terrible golf course for me,” Knost said.
