'Stay strong and keep fighting,' Woods said in the video for former Wake Forest golfer Daniel Meggs, who has colon cancer.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Harold Varner III worked up the courage to ask a favour ofWoods made a videotaped message for Daniel Meggs on the Wednesday before the Masters, encouraging the former Wake Forest golfer to keep fighting and to never give up hope.
And then it got even better. Meggs was so excited to get the video he predicted that Woods was going to win. Varner was at home on Sunday of the final round as he watched Woods come from two shots behind on the back nine at Augusta National to win his fifth green jacket and his first major in 11 years."For like a good 20 seconds, we didn’t say anything. We just cried," Varner said. "I’m just glad he wasn’t in front of me because I would not have said anything.
"Hey, Daniel," Woods says in the video. "I know you’re going through a difficult time. But I just want you to know that I’m pulling for you. Stay strong and keep fighting. That’s the most important thing. Never give up hope. You’re an inspiration to all of us. Just keep hanging in there, all right? Take care, dude."
