Forsetar og stórstjörnur hylltu Tiger

Tiger Woods fagnar sigri sínum í gær. AFP

Donald Trump, forseti Bandaríkjanna, Barack Obama, fyrrverandi forseti Bandaríkjanna, tennisstjarnan Serena Williams, körfuboltastjanan LeBron James og golfgoðsögnin Jack Nicklaus voru meðal þeirra sem sendu Tiger Woods hamingjuóskir eftir að hann tryggði sér sigur á Mastersmótinu í golfi í gær.

Tiger vann þar með sitt 14. risamót á ferlinum og það fyrsta í 11 ár en þessi frábæri íþróttamaður vann Mastersmótið í fimmta sinn á ferlinum en hann hrósaði fyrst sigri á þessu móti árið 1997.

Very few people really know what @TigerWoods has been thru to get back to this point. So cool seeing him with Tida, Sam, Charlie, Erica and the rest of the team behind 18 green. Couldn’t be happier for him! What a great day for golf! #TheMasters
