Nike RESPONDS To Tiger Woods Shoe Controversy..

Welcome back to Sports Craze, today on the channel we are going to discuss details as Nike responds as Tiger Woods’ shoes cause a stir at The Masters. Tiger Woods traipsing around Augusta in hopes of competing in The Masters is a mostly familiar sight, except for his shoes. The New York Post reports Woods, who has been sponsored by Nike since 1996, was spotted in FootJoy shoes during his practice round at Augusta, creating some surprise and confusion across social media. Nike issued a statement addressing the matter.

“Like golf fans around the world, we are delighted to see Tiger back on the course. He is an incredible athlete, and it is phenomenal to see him returning to the game at this level,” the company told ESPN’s Michael Collins. “His story continues to transcend sport and inspire us all. As he continues his return, we will work with him to meet his new needs.” It has been 14 months since Woods was involved in a debilitating single-car accident in California. There were fears he could lose a leg over injuries sustained in the wreck. As recently as February, he was casting doubt on his availability for The Masters. “I’m still working on the walking part,’’ he said. “My foot was a little messed up there about a year ago, so the walking part is something that I’m still working on, working on strength and development in that. It takes time. “What’s frustrating is it’s not at my timetable. I want to be at a certain place, but I’m not.’’ It is therefore unsurprising Woods would need the footwear that provides him with the most support, and right now FootJoy is apparently ahead of Nike in that regard.

  1. Nike like the PGA is in it for the money, Tiger brings in the bucks for them!!

  2. Tiger is not the undisputed greatest golfer to ever live — unless you're under 40 years of age, which most of those at this site must be.
