Florida, Mar 8 (THAINDIAN NEWS) The ace golfer – Tiger Woods has declined a $75 million sponsorship offer from the Irish bookmaker – Paddy Power. After being rejected, Paddy Powers says that it would not take it lightly, and would instead try to lure the golfer with a better offer.

Tiger Woods is already having trouble with his sponsors, as one by one they all are dropping him. Last week, Gatorade bid adieu to him, as his popularity figures are steadily falling. Three other major contracts have also slipped from his hands, in the recent times. A popularity poll was conducted by ABC News/ESPN in February 2010, and it says that his popularity is steadily eroding away, even after he apologized publicly on TV.

It may be recalled that on the 19th of February, he had made a public apology. In the public apology, the ace golfer Tiger Woods spoke passionately about his repeated irresponsible behavior, and apologized profusely for his mistakes at a press conference today. He said that he is deeply sorry for his irresponsible selfish behavior that he indulged in. He also revealed that he and his wife Elin Nordegren have had many discussions about his affairs. He said that Elin said that his real apology would be his behavior over time. So he has vowed that he would not repeat his mistakes ever again.
