March 10 (UPI) -- Tiger Woods shed tears as he addressed the crowd at his World Golf Hall of Fame induction ceremony in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. He discussed his support system and rise through the sport as he battled discrimination.
Woods' 14-year-old daughter Sam presented her father with the honor Wednesday at the PGA Tour's Global Home headquarters. He son Charlie, 13, mother Kultida, girlfriend Erica Herman and several other golfers were in attendance.
Fellow sports legends Tom Brady, Michael Phelps, Jerry Rice, Serena Williams and Jack Nicklaus were among those who spoke about Woods' greatness in an introductory video.
Sam started her speech by sharing lessons she learned from her father. She also mentioned his road to recovery from serious leg injuries he sustained in a Feb. 23, 2021 car crash, which he says ended his career as a full-time participant on the PGA Tour.
