What I want to know is what the hell Tiger was doing eating at Applebees. I mean….really….this guy could afford to snort Russian caviar on his own Gulfstream, and wash it down with a bottle of Italian lingerie model sweat.
Drugs….hmmmm…he did win the US Open with a broken leg.
To your point on Buick…….you can hear the WHOOOSH of Pepsi, Proctor & Gamble and Accenture leaving the room……TAG Heuer may stick around because their brand has a bit more “Badass” tinge to it. But I think Tiger’s looking at a nasty list of potential endorsers: GoDaddy, Trojan, Hummer and Pledge Brass Pole Wax,
“Gillette….the best a man can get.” Again….I say “Applebees?”!!!
The TAG Heuer website is still oddly on point: “His personal obsession with results and perfection, his ability to withstand pressure, to meet expectations and exceed them, but also his love of discipline – all this makes him a natural partner for the brand.” The Brand > Stars & Glamour > Tiger Woods > Biography - TAG Heuer, Swiss Watches and Chronographs - TAG Heuer swiss avant garde since 1860
Even Fortune has started a “Tiger Woods Sponsorship Deathwatch.” Tiger Woods' sponsorship deathwatch - Dec. 9, 2009
For now…..the Accenture ads are very much still viewable: Accenture Print Advertising ? Tiger Woods
And let me just say……ooops: http://www.accenture.com/NR/rdonlyre...t_print_Ad.pdf
The guy may actually have to make his money golfing.
His future ex-wife, however, has a glorious future in movies, reality TV and Lifetime Television….if not Nike, Accenture and Amex. Or she can snort caviar on Tiger’s jet, and whenever he calls to complain….she can say “Applebees.”
