Tiger Woods introduced on Monday that he's ending his 27-year partnership with attire king Nike.
Inking a cope with Nike when he was 20 years outdated, Woods went on to win 82 PGA Tour titles and 15 majors sporting the swoosh of Nike. Woods’ first cope with Nike was 5 years for $40 million.
“Over 27 years ago, I was fortunate to start a partnership with one of the most iconic brands in the world. The days since have been filled with so many amazing moments and memories, if I started naming them, I could go on forever,” Woods stated in an announcement.
“Phil Knight’s passion and vision brought this Nike and Nike Golf partnership together and I want to personally thank him, along with the Nike employees and incredible athletes I have had the pleasure of working with along the way. People will ask if there is another chapter. Yes, there will certainly be another chapter. See you in LA!”

Nike thanked Woods in an Instagram publish, saying, “It was a hell of a round, Tiger.”
“Tiger, you challenged your competition, stereotypes, conventions, the old school way of thinking. You challenged the entire institution of golf. You challenged us. And most of all, yourself. And for that challenge we’re grateful,” Nike stated within the publish.
Woods is the event host of The Genesis Invitational, held in Los Angeles, which will probably be performed from February 15-18.
Woods has been sporting FootJoy golf footwear for about two years.
