At the World Golf Hall of Fame ceremony on Wednesday night, arguably the best golfer to have ever walked the planet was added to the Class of 2021, with Tiger Woods being introduced by his daughter, Sam, as a Golf Hall of Fame member.

The ceremony was an emotional one, with Sam giving a powerful and moving speech in which she detailed Tiger's first Major triumph in 1997, where Tiger became the first black and Asian golfer to win a Major championship, as well as his 2019 Masters success following multiple back surgeries, his devastating car crash in February 2021 and "winning the greatest gift of all." 

Following Sam's speech, Tiger was given a standing ovation by the crowd, before speaking about his childhood, the impact his parents had on his career and his children, Sam and Charlie.

The incredible Hall of Fame induction made many professionals and fans take to social media, with messages of support and thanks being shared via Twitter.
