“I’m pretty sure he questioned himself, whether he could get it back ... But he took it head-on.” Tiger's earned some high praise from MJ.
Woods earned his first major win in nearly 11 years this past Sunday and his performance resulted in an outpouring of adoration from the entire sports world. One golf fan enamoured with Woods’s accomplishment was none other than basketball icon Michael Jordan.
Woods won 14 majors between 1997 and 2008 before multiple injuries — including several that required him to undergo significant back surgery — as well as personal transgressions derailed his dominance. The 43-year-old was a complete non-factor at majors between 2014 and 2017, before a strong showing at the 2018 Open Championship and a second-place finish at the PGA Championship.
