woods10 Chicago, Jan 5 (THAINDIAN NEWS) EA Sports said on Monday it was moving forward with plans to introduce a Tiger Woods online game despite the top golfer’s terrible drop in 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.

Meanwhile other sponsors of Tiger Woods have ditched him, following his adultery scandals, and many have distanced themselves for the time being. And Tiger Woods has also announced an indefinite break from golf, as he tries to repair the damage caused to his family, by his numerous affairs. Whereabouts about Tiger Woods are not known, as some people claim that he was seen in Florida with his mistress Rachel Uchitel, whereas others say that he left with his close pal on his private yacht to the Bahamas. And yesterday there was speculation that he had left for Africa.
