Top 8 Inspirational Sports Comebacks

Okay, cool, here are the eight sport comebacks ranking among the best inspirational true stories ever written on the pages of athletics, thick with courage and invincible spirit and determination. So let's get to it and see what kind of stories we have. Here we go:

1. Muhammad Ali Returns to the Ring (1974)

Overview: After three years in retirement and suspension for his declaration that the heavyweight title exempted him from drafting into Vietnam, Ali came out of retirement to win the "Rumble in the Jungle" against George Foreman. That victory reinstated him to the heavyweight title and, historically, made him one of the great boxers and, from that view, an icon.

2. Tiger Woods Won the Masters at 2019

Summary: This is actual battle and really hard stuff going on, personal or injuries with surgery here and surgery there but this is the moment when Tiger Woods finally won his historic 2019 Masters, winning his 15th major championship. All in all, he needs to have perseverance that man abounds.

3. Liverpool's 2005 UEFA Champions League Final

Summary: Perhaps the most dramatic thing we may ever actually forget is when Liverpool came back from a 3-nil deficit at halftime to win the UEFA Champions League Final for AC Milan on penalties, ushering in belief and power for determination .

4. Kurt Warner’s NFL Comeback

Overview: This is Kurt Warner-from the bagger at the supermarket checkout, to coach a St. Louis Rams to a Super Bowl 1999-is the best embodiment of grit and perspiration. It's the most inspiring story ever told in football-to emerge from obscurity and capture the NFL MVP, then win the first Super Bowl they were sent to.

5. Monica Seles comes back to Tennis

Summary: Monica Seles is attacked on court in 1993 and back playing tennis with a heart in 1995, winning the Australian Open. What makes this such a great story is that this nightmare represented everything she had to recover from.

6. Ben Hogan's victory in the 1950 U.S.

Overview: Among the comebacks in sports, few can be matched up to the glory of that orchestrated by Ben Hogan after almost being killed in his car smash-up of 1949. Severe injuries had left this golf star disfigured to a shocking extent. And yet just about a month shy of sixteen months after the infamous car crash, Hogan marched victoriously onto the stage of golf's greatest moment as he went on to win the 1950 U.S. Open.

7. Boston Red Sox 2004 ALCS Comeback

Overview: The crowning jewel of the Boston Red Sox -the most glamorous 2004 season in which the team sweeps the World Series against St. Louis Cardinals after snatching victory from the jaws of defeat all through the epic comeback from a historic 3-0 deficit in the ALCS and turned baseball history. This was the end of an 86-year old 'Curse of the Bambino and' for this reason, it is still cherished even to date.

8. Michael Jordan`s Return to the NBA (1995)

Overview: After that baseball interlude, Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls have dominated the trophy series three times between 1995-1998, a feat that is well enough to mark his name for eternity among the gall of all-time greats since, in fact, this return was perhaps one of the greatest sporting history ever witnessed.

That is the heart of why sports are so riveting: to brag over the victory of the human spirit over seemingly insurmountable circumstances, and that's why these stories ring true outside of triprm alone.
