Get some tissues ready.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you everyone for taking time out of your day to come and celebrate these inductees. Without your contributions, I know that this achievement would not be possible,\u201d Sam said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlthough I never met my dad\u2019s most influential role model, my grandfather, Earl Woods, I feel like I can hear his voice every day, reminding me to \u2018train hard, fight easy.\u2019 This is an old Special Forces saying that he ingrained into my dad, who now says it to Charlie and I. It not only teaches us that we need to put in the hard work to get what we want, but it\u2019s that hard work that\u2019ll pay off in the end,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn 2007, my dad found himself in position to make an 18-foot putt to force a U.S. Open playoff \u2014 which he missed by a foot\u201d Sam said, prompting laughter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe then had to rush to the airport, fly from Pittsburgh to Orlando and drive to the Winnie Palmer hospital. Within five minutes of walking into the hospital room, still wearing his red golf shirt, on June 18, I was born. He may have lost that day, but he won the greatest gift of all,\u201d she said, drawing laughter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis continual presence has been a significant pattern throughout our relationship. Whether it\u2019s on FaceTime or school pickup, or violin concerts or when we fail to teach our dogs tricks, he\u2019s always there. And it\u2019s been at the soccer fields and golf tournaments over the years that Charlie and I have begun to realize how famous he actually is. I mean, how can a guy who still facetimes his friends to discuss Marvel and DC timelines and who goes to ComicCon dressed as Batman, be one of the greatest golfers that ever lived?\u201d Sam continued.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn a family trip to the Bahamas one year, we jumped into the ocean and started swimming along a reef. At first realized a couple of jellyfish but then noticed more and more. And after an epic battle with a swarm of jellies, we wound up having to cover ourselves with anti-itch cream. This did not deter us. We still went on diving and finding hermit crabs on the beach for the rest of our vacation,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI realized while writing this speech that no matter what life throws our way, we somehow come out together and stronger. You know, \u2018trade hard, fight easy.\u2019 Recently, Daddy, you\u2019ve had to train harder than ever. About a year ago, you were stuck in a hospital bed at one your ultimate lows and one of the scariest moments of your life and ours. We didn\u2019t know if you\u2019d come home with two legs or not,\u201d Sam added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, not only are you about inducted into the Hall of Fame, but you\u2019re standing here on your own two feet,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is why you deserve this. Because you\u2019re a fighter. You\u2019ve defied the odds every time, being the first black and Asian golfer to win a major, being able to win your fifth Masters after multiple back surgeries and being able to walk just a few months after your crash. Through thick and thin, you Charlie, Erica, Kunya, and I will always be a team,\u201d Sam said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDad, I inducted you in the dad Hall of Fame a long time ago. But today, I\u2019m so proud to present my dad, Tiger Woods, into the World Golf Hall of Fame,\u201d she concluded.<\/p>\n<p>A teary eyed Tiger walked to the podium, hugged his daughter, whispered into her ear, and opened his remarks with this: \u201cCrap, I just lost a bet to [fellow golfer Steve] Stricker that I wouldn\u2019t cry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Joseph Curl has covered politics for 35 years, including 12 years as White House correspondent, and ran the Drudge Report from 2010 to 2015.
