Golf Digest January Issue Cover features Barack Obama and Tiger Woods with a cover story titled, "10 Tips Obama Can Take From Tiger."
Golf Digest spokesperson Bret Hoffman explains:
“We’re a monthly magazine with monthly deadlines, the January issue went to press almost two weeks before Tiger’s accident.”
But that’s not the only brand that will be having problems because of Tiger Woods. The PGA Tour is allegedly losing sponsors for the upcoming tournament, ads with Tiger Woods have been pulled from TV and PepsiCo is dropping Gatorade Tiger Focus.
The cover comes amidst the biggest scandal of Woods’ career, and as Obama is set to address the nation on his decision to send 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan.
The two have enjoyed a close relationship, with Woods calling Obama’s election “incredible,” participating in his pre-inauguration ceremonies, and visiting the White House.
Coincidence or just Bad Timing? Golf Digest Cover featuring Barack Obama and Tiger Woods looks great though…what do you think?
