Bethesad, Maryland: Shortly after Roger Federer won his record 15th grand slam title at Wimbledon, Tiger Woods sent the Swiss a congratulatory text message.
"I think it was 14-all when we were all on the putting green, and then I went to the range and I heard that he had held and then he broke to win," Woods told reporters on Sunday.
Woods said he sent the simple message, which read "great job. Now it's my turn", before he teed off. The American then went on to win the AT&T National tournament he hosts by a stroke.
