Ranked 1,199 - in November 2017, and four back operations. What is the greatest sporting comeback you've seen and why? With Tiger that is something that I thought never see again.

Also Monica Seles winning the Australian Open in 1996 following that attack in 1993. Federer recently never thought I'll see him win a Grand Slam title again.

She lost the first set 6-0 and fell 5-0 behind in the second. It got worse - she was 40-30 down in the sixth match of the second set, facing a 6-0 6-0 drubbing. She saved that match point and went on to win the match 0-6 7-6 6-3.
