Celine Dion, who has been facing health challenges due to a rare neurological disorder, made an unexpected and joyful public appearance at the TGL Event in Florida, leaving fans and even golfing legend Tiger Woods grinning from ear to ear.

Dion, who had been diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome in December 2022, a condition that severely affects her mobility and public appearances, surprised everyone with her performance. Despite the limitations her health has imposed, Dion made her way to the SoFi Arena, joining her three children to witness the golfing action firsthand.

But it wasn’t just the golf that had the crowd buzzing. During an interview with ESPN’s Marty Smith, Dion stole the spotlight with a playful moment that even made Tiger Woods laugh on the green. When Smith asked her what song best represented her golf game, Dion smiled and jokingly responded with the iconic lyrics of her hit, “My Heart Will Go On.” Changing the words slightly, she sang: “I believe that my ball will go onnnn.” Smith, not missing a beat, joined in, and the duo shared a light-hearted duet that had everyone, including Woods, in good spirits.

“I used to play golf when I had the time,” Dion shared in the interview. “Then I had kids, had to take a break, but it’s amazing to see my children, all passionate about the game.” Dion proudly expressed how her three kids had developed a love for golf, something that she deeply appreciated as a mother. “Golf is such a beautiful game. You can compete with yourself, play with friends, your family, or your neighbors—it’s a game that brings people together.”

With a contagious energy, Dion also took a moment to check in with the crowd, asking how they were feeling and encouraging them to cheer louder. Her vibrant spirit was evident despite her health struggles. She shared that she was “doing really great” and that it was a true honor to be at the event with her children by her side.

For Dion, the TGL event was a magical experience. The singer’s love for golf is clear, as she reflects on how the game has become a family affair. It’s also a reminder that no matter the challenges life presents, Dion’s resilience and sense of humor continue to shine through, making her rare appearances even more memorable.
