Dec. 21, (THAINDIAN NEWS) The reports of infidelity that has surrounded Tiger Woods for the last few days has disturbed the professional and personal life of the golfer so much that he has decided to take an indefinite break from golf. It appears that the decision to take a break from the sports world has proven fatal for the billionaire and many sponsors are ending their deals with the golfer. Therefore, people might not get to see his image in many brands that was earlier endorsed by him.
According to the reports, Tag Heuer has recently decided to reconsider the sponsorship deal with the golfer. It has been reported that the famous watchmakers would not end the deal with Tiger Woods but they would replace Tiger Woods’ image in different markets. They have stated that they would endorse Tiger Woods Foundation. The spokesperson of Tiger Woods also said that they have taken this decision considering the sensitivity of recent issues that were revealed about the golfer but they still recognize his sportsmanship.
Accenture and Gillette has also decided to end their terms with Tiger Woods after the image of the golfer was tattered by the reports of multiple affairs. Tiger Woods must have been highly affected by the decision of his sponsors but he has not made any comment on the issue. Though many major sponsors have dropped deals and wife has decided to end the marriage for the media reports related to his affairs, he is still named as the PGA Tour Player Of The Year and people are inquisitive to know if this honor would help his comeback in golf.
