The 82nd annual Masters are underway in Augusta, GA and all eyes are on Tiger Woods. The four-time Masters champion is competing in his first Masters tournament since 2015 and fans are eager to see what he might have up his sleeve.

Although he’s four strokes over par right now, Tiger’s doing his part to earn back some of the public’s respect.

One stage four lung cancer patient from Columbia, SC was at the first round of the Masters to watch Tiger’s potential comeback. His step-daughter, Jordan Miller, asked her followers to retweet her request to help him meet Tiger Woods while he was at the tournament.

“PLEASE RETWEET!! I need help making my step dads dream of meeting @TigerWoods come true,” she tweeted. “He has stage 4 lung cancer and is very sick. This would mean the absolute world to him. Please help me make this happen for him.”

The tweet received almost 10,000 retweets and 5,700 likes. And on Thursday, they finally made it happen.

“WE DID IT,” Miller tweeted.

She also uploaded a video of him returning with a golf glove signed by Tiger.

You’ve got to love stories like these. Whether or not Tiger makes a comeback, and whether or not you’re a Tiger fan, it doesn’t matter. Seeing him make a fan this happy is one of the purest things on earth. It’s a reminder that you can’t put a value on professional sports in the free world.
