EXCLUSIVE: AT&T Reconsidering Relationship With Tiger Woods
Posted on Dec 11, 2009 @ 10:53AM
The fallout from Tiger Woods’ extramarital affairs continues. Shortly after he announced on Friday that he is taking a hiatus from golf, AT&T, one of his major sponsors, released a statement to RadarOnline.com saying they are currently reevaluating their relationship with the pro.

"We support Tiger's decision and our thoughts will be with him and his family,” the statement read. “We are presently evaluating our ongoing relationship with him."

With Tiger literally out of the game, will his endorsements stick around? Gatorade, another one of Woods’ high profile supporters, downplayed dropping his drink by explaining that it was a long-decided strategic move to make way for other products. However, the company has not yet issued a public statement regarding any continued relationship with Woods.

Swiss watchmaker Tag Heuer, who recently pulled their Australian advertisements highlighting the golfer, echoed Gatorade’s explanation saying the move had nothing to do with the current scandals.

"We change our campaigns probably four or five times per annum," Tag Heuer general manager Philip Richards said.

I wonder how many people on here are PR spokesholes?
For now, Tiger is going to live on a prisonlike tiny, damp. very cold island?
Wow. The only way to undue this mess is for him to get out of the marriage and take care of his kids.

I own AT&T phones too and will dump them if they keep serial fornicator Tiger as a celebrity spokesman. How can anyone believe anything he endorses? He has lost all credibility. It is why you see no Tiger Woods ads rerunning on TV now.

Hey AT&T, Why don't you be our hero and take the money you would have paid Tiger and lower our bills? Show some gratitude !

The full damage of what he has done may not be known until the kids are adults. Will one or both follow in his cheating ways. His father cheated and Tiger did big time. Now the question is will that legacy be continued with the kids.
