The legendary American golfer, Tiger Woods, and his achievements on the PGA Tour have inspired a number of notable figures in the country. Serena Williams‘ husband Alexis Ohanian is one such notable personality who has followed Woods’ incredible career over the past few years. Although, in the past, Woods’ performances with a golf club in his hand have often mesmerized the Reddit cofounder, this time it was his World Golf Hall of Fame induction speech that deeply moved him.

During that speech, the 47-year-old golf legend opened up about his experiences with institutional racism during the early phase of his illustrious journey. Taking note of his emotional and powerful speech, the Reddit cofounder recently hailed him on social media.

Serena Williams’ husband Alexis Ohanian lavishes praise on Tiger Woods

In the previous season, the legendary American golfer was quite emotional when he was inducted into the Golf Hall of Fame. His speech portrayed all his struggles with discrimination and racism at a very young age. Before he made his mark on the PGA Tour, Tiger Woods was denied entry into different clubhouses while other juniors were allowed entry.

Woods detailed how his skin color dictated that and suggested he was a victim of institutional racism. However, he overcame these racial barriers with his sheer determination. In the process, Wood proved his naysayers wrong by reaching unprecedented heights on the PGA Tour. The American golfer never allowed his detractors to define him; instead, he utilized them as fuel for his ambition.
