AT&T is through with Tiger Woods -- and his signature golf bag. The company announced Thursday that it is ending is relationship with the philandering golf superstar, joining Accenture and Gillette in dropping Woods' contracts.
According to a Wall Street Journal report, the communications giant issued a very short statement, saying:
We are ending our sponsorship agreement with Tiger Woods and wish him well in the future.
A company spokesman said AT&T will continue to sponsor the AT&T National PGA Tour golf tournament in July that benefits Woods' charitable foundation, but its name will no longer be featured on Woods' golf bag.
Tag Heuer also has stopped featuring Woods' image in advertising, though they continue to support his charitable foundation. Proctor & Gamble had already decided not to run any more of Woods' Gatorade ads before the Enquirer ran its first article exposing the golfer's affair with New York party hostess Rachel Uchitel.
Woods admitted to "infidelities" and took an "indefinite" break from golf after being caught in multiple extramarital affairs and linked to porn stars and prostitutes. Some sources have said he is currently in an Arizona rehabilitation facility for sex addiction.

Who can blame AT&T! Tiger basically used AT&T technology to exchange pornographic texting and photos with his mistresses and he probably was getting free service from AT & T. What a sick person he is!!!
