Even the former President of the USA, Barack Obama tweeted about Woods’ incredible performance. Notably, Woods was going through many personal problems in his life before that Masters title win. Moreover, his last Major Championship came back in 2008 at the US Open, almost 10 years ago. In the final, he shot two-under 70, which was truly exceptional and reminded everyone of his previous self. With that win, he won his 15th Major title in his professional golf career.

Currently, both Woods and Williams are enduring a tough time on their respective tours. Earlier at the Open Championship, Woods missed the cut and Serena also lost in the first round of the Wimbledon Championships. Sadly, they are both nearing the end of their remarkable careers.

Serena is determined to win her 24th Grand Slam title

While Serena is currently 40 years old, she is not yet giving up on her dream of winning her 24th Grand Slam title. In 2017, she won her 23rd Grand Slam title at the Australian Open, while being pregnant with her daughter Olympia. Since then, she got plenty of opportunities to win her 24th Grand Slam title and match Margaret Court’s record, but couldn’t.

It will be interesting to see if she can equal the all time record on her home soil.
