No more free Gatorade for Tiger Woods: the golfer has lost his endorsement deal with the sports drink.

"I can confirm that we no longer see a role for Tiger in our marketing efforts and have ended our relationship," a Gatorade spokeswoman told the Associated Press Friday. "We wish Tiger all the best."

Look back on the Tiger Woods scandal

The PepsiCo Inc. beverage subsidiary says it will continue its partnership with the 34 year-old golfer's charitable foundation, however.

It's the third loss for Woods, who has already been dropped by Gillette and global consulting firm Accenture.

The golfer -- who gave his first public apology Friday -- still has deals in place with AT&T, Tag Heuer and Nike. Prior to his adultery scandals, he made an estimated $110 million a year in endorsements.

    Tiger Woods should F***ing disappear into the shadows. He is lower than the dog sh*t in the cracks of my shoe. Nobody cares how well you can play golf you fu**ing degenerate. Gatorade isn't the only thing that should drop your stupid A$$, Dipsh*t. Your lucky your not my husband.

    I agree with Dumb Asses, Your a Moran and Your Dumb. Jossie is an attention hound and Jodi is just a w.hore trying to get attention. Now as far as Tiger is concerned, Gatorade is on the losing end of this battle. Their product sucks big time and Tiger can do much better trying to represent a healthier drink. Who cares what this man does as far as his personal sexual life????? Does that make him a bad golfer? No. Does it hurt the sporting events he's involved with? No. The only person that needs to be concerned with his sexual escapades is his wife. And I'm sure any punishment she is putting him through is going to be alot more painful to him than what any sponsor can do.

    Why does Gatorade put 30 grams of sugar in a "performance" drink? Does Michael Phelps even eat/drink that much sugar in a couple days?

    Amen, Beverly!!!

    Tiger call me, I will be your baby mamma.

    To BO the Bfer: How do you know that Elin "quit putting out?" Were you living with them? By the way, a wife doesn't "put out" to her husband---they share their love together, both wanting each other. You have a teen-age mentality, it would seem. Yes, Tiger should have stayed single instead of getting married. He could have had all those women and it would have been fine to play the field. No one would have gotten hurt. As far as Elin being "a gold-digging ice queen," you don't know anything about her. No one does, except the people who know her personally, which you, I'm sure, don't. Therefore, it isn't right to make snap judgements about her.

    To Nicole: Tiger did not "make mistakes." He made "choices." When a man gets married with no intention of remaining faithful to his wife and who starts to see other women almost immediately after he gets married, how is that a "mistake?" It's a conscious choice and now he is seeing the consequences of the choices he made. Everything in life has consequences. Tiger chose to be unfaithful with numerous women. He should never have gotten married in the first place.

    Gatorade SUCKs and htis will eb the last time I ever buy this product. Who are we to judge others. WE ALL make mistakes.

    What a bunch of hypocrites these CEO's are , I'm sure they are perfect and they never ever cheated on their lovely wives ???? My ass. Sure they did but they certainly hired expensive prostitutes. I hope and pray Tiger will be back on the golf course better than ever and all these stupid sponsors who dropped him will regret this decision. Woods is the greatest golfer and will be reminded for that and nothing else. Enough for this kind of hypocrisy. Bush was never treated that way and he did so much worse .....

    TIGER DESERVES WHAT HE GETS, HE DOESNT OWE ANY OF HIS MISTRESSES AN APOLOGY, DESPITE GLORIA ALRED ATTY FOR ONE OF HIS MISTRESSES, ALL THOSE MISTRESSES OWE ELIN AN APOLOGY!

  • February 27, 2010 - 3:18am BO the BFer

    Elin quit putting out, so Tiger went elsewhere. Tiger should have stayed single instead of marrying the gold-digging ice queen.

    People do you know he slept with elin only once and boom she says she is has taken in. Check out their photo together he always seem distant with her. He married coz he scared she would sell her story to the media. She knew he was cheating. Just a ...ho nanny biting the hands that fed her. She can't divorce him, she doesn't wanna go back cleaning people's baby poop.
