One of the most remarkable come backs in sports history. After the injuries, surgeries, private life turmoil, public life turmoil, Woods came back as a much more human, and humble man. 

Trump awarded Woods the Medal of Freedom; highest civilian award. Woods achievement doesn't rise to that standard. Trump again showed why he isn't presidential. 

This is one example of the kind of civilian excellence for whom the Medal of Freedom is reserved and meant.

"In 1958, Van Cliburn became an instant celebrity when he won the Tchaikovsky International Competition in Moscow. It caused a sensation for an American to win a Russian competition during the tense standoff between the United States and the Soviet Union known as the Cold War. Van Cliburn’s triumph in the competition was celebrated not only by Americans, but by Russians. New York Times Moscow correspondent Max Frankel covered the competition and later wrote that “The Soviet public celebrated Cliburn not only for his artistry but for his nationality; affection for him was a safe expression of affection for America.”

Woods achievement didn't rise to this kind of level.
