With Tiger Woods set to return to professional golf at this week’s Masters, Nike – the one major sponsor that stuck by Woods’ side through his recent sexual indiscretions and entire ordeal – have just released their latest ad featuring the World’s #1 ranked player.

Powerful stuff. I think I’m going to go buy myself a new pair of Tiger’s Air Zoom TW 2010 shoes now.
Boo hoo Tiger. Who ever had the idea at the marketing company for this is one sick puppy. Tiger just play golf. Do the commercials the old way. And let’s all move on. Your wife is the only one who needs to make any judgment call.
its different, provokes interest, gets you attention, but in the end who really cares? He is a jerk and why should we forgive him or care about him? he cheated and his sport is all abou honour!
