Tiger Woods meets Sachin Tendulkar, says batting legend is a 'cool guy'
While Tiger Woods was in the capital for an exhibition golf tournament, Sachin Tendulkar was here to receive his Bharat Ratna.
They are legends in their own domain, but it seems iconic cricketer Sachin Tendulkar has managed to floor ace golfer Tiger Woods when the two greats caught up in the capital on Tuesday.
After meeting Tendulkar and his family in new Delhi, Woods wrote on Twitter that the batting genius was a "cool" guy.
Just met a cricket legend and his family. Sachin Tendulkar @sachin_rt was so cool and loved being welcomed to India.

While Woods was in town to take part in an exhibition match at a private event at the Delhi Golf Club (DGC), Tendulkar was in the capital to receive Bharat Ratna, the country's highest civilian honour. (Also see: Pics from ceremony at Bharat Ratna)
Tendulkar, who retired from all forms of cricket in November last year, has been a keen follower of golf.
