Twitter is great for connecting with celebrities and your favorite sports stars. But sometimes it’s the interactions between the two that make for the best encounters.

The golf world sat and watched Friday as Tom Watson made his final walk up the 18th fairway at Augusta National.

Rapper Lil Wayne was one of them.

"Weezy" sent his heartfelt congratulations to Watson after giving the eight-time major champion a standing ovation in his living room.
