Tiger Woods‘ historic partnership with Nike is no more … the golfing legend just revealed he’s split with the Swoosh after 27 years.
The 48-year-old made the announcement on his X page just minutes ago, thanking Phil Knight … while reminiscing on the “amazing moments and memories” he’s had with the athletic apparel giant.
“If I started naming them,” he said of his most memorable times with the brand, “I could go on forever.”
Woods first inked a deal with Nike back when he was still an amateur golfer … and he went on to become synonymous with the brand — wearing swooshes on his gear for every one of his major tournament wins.
However, Woods dropped breadcrumbs recently that a breakup could be coming … most notably when he was seen wearing FootJoys at the 2022 Masters — a year after he seriously injured his leg in a car crash.
Woods also wouldn’t confirm his future with Nike when reporters asked him about it at the PNC Championship last month … saying only, “I’m still wearing their product.”
Unclear where Woods will go next when it comes to brand partnerships … he said only in his statement Monday morning, “People will ask if there is another chapter. Yes, there will certainly be another chapter.”
“See you in LA!”
