woods10 Chicago, Jan 5 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Despite the gloomy year-end of the ace golfer, EA Sports said on Monday it was moving forward with plans to introduce a Tiger Woods online game. Even though there has been a terrible drop in the ace golfer’s popularity following his adultery scandal. Since Thanksgiving as many as 14 mistresses of the ace golfer have popped up that include cocktail waitresses and even porn stars.

The Electronic Arts Inc unit’s president, Peter Moore, said in a company blog, www.itsinthegame.com, that the company would offer “Tiger Woods PGA Tour Online,” which is a browser-based golf game that was developed in 2009. “Our relationship with Tiger has always been rooted in golf,” he wrote on the blog. “We didn’t form a relationship with him so that he could act as an arm’s length endorser.

“Regardless of what’s happening in his personal life … Tiger Woods is still one of the greatest athletes in history,” he added.

Tiger Woods is the top ranked golfer, and was said to be earning over $100 million in just endorsements. But after the mistress’s scandal broke, many of his top sponsors have distanced themselves from the star. Tiger has also confessed to his ‘transgressions’ and to repair the damage done to his family, on account of his affairs, he has said that he is taking an indefinite break from golf.
