President Trump Will Honor Tiger Woods With A Presidential Medal Of Freedom

Tiger Woods pulled off an incredible win at the Masters at Augusta on Sunday. Tiger's victory represents his first major win in eleven years, and his first win at the Masters since 2005.

There's no doubt that Tiger Woods has overcome a lot in the past few years. Winning the Masters could represent the start of a great comeback for a golfer who many assumed had lost his edge.

President Trump announced on Monday via Twitter that he would be honoring Tiger Woods by awarding him a Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Spoke to @TigerWoods to congratulate him on the great victory he had in yesterday’s @TheMasters, & to inform him that because of his incredible Success & Comeback in Sports (Golf) and, more importantly, LIFE, I will be presenting him with the PRESIDENTIAL MEDAL OF FREEDOM!

Naturally, Twitter erupted with condemnations of President Trump's decision to honor Tiger Woods.

it's a good thing Tiger Golf is a sex addict who hits a ball with a stick for a living and not, say, a tortured prisoner of war like John McCain was, because people who get captured don't deserve any of your tacky gold-plated medals

I have no idea who this Tiger Golf is. Apparently he's a better golfer than Tiger Woods, but not as good a war hero as John McCain. Also a sex addict.

Weird.

Seriously do you ever work?

Dude, you just replied three times to the same tweet. Yet you're complaining about Trump not working?

Next he will be giving OJ Simpson the Medal of Honor...

Grandpa's gone senile. Time to put him down.

Coming from you, that's meaningless.

I know I've said this before, but I'd just like to point out that this man is a "mental health counselor" according to his Twitter bio.

Let that sink in.

Leftists seem to be awfully mad that President Trump is choosing to honor a black man in the White House with the highest award that can be bestowed.

Seems kind of racist if you ask me.
