Latest Tiger Woods activity described as 'sad': "Must be bad blood"
Tiger Woods' team have edited iconic photographs of the golfer on his official website to remove any trace of the Nike logo.
Iconic images of Tiger Woods have been edited on his official website to remove any trace of the Nike logo.
The change was spotted by the ever-informed TW Legion who tracks the movements of the iconic golfer.
Woods left the sporting apparel giant in early January after being associated with the swoosh for 27 years.
He has since moved on to launch his own line, Sun Day Red, in a joint venture with his equipment manufacturer TaylorMade.
The decision to remove the Nike logo from photographs from some of Woods' most iconic moments has led some fans to question if there is animosity.
"That's crazy," one X user wrote. "Why edit old pics to remove the Nike logo? That's not commonly done. Must be some very bad blood."
Another added: "It's wild to edit out the logo from the 2019 Masters win."

Woods wore Sun Day Red apparel for the first time at the 2024 Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club.
The tournament is an annual PGA Tour event of which he serves as the tournament host.
Woods was forced to withdraw early in the second round with the flu.
Before the tournament began he held an official launch party for the new line.
The Sun Day Red logo is a stretched-out tiger with 15 stripes -- one for each major championship Woods has won in his career.
Woods joked that he would have to 'redo' the trademark in the unlikely event he wins another major.
The 48-year-old also clarified he wanted to close the doors on his iconic TW logo.
The TW logo debuted in 2000, just in time for the Tiger Slam, which was completed the next year.
"I don't want it back," Woods said of his old logo. "I've moved on. This is a transition in my life.
"I've moved on to Sun Day Red, and we're looking forward to building a brand that elicits excitement and is transformative."
Woods has yet to announce when he will make his next tournament start.
It was widely assumed he was going to be in the field for the 2024 Players Championship but he opted to skip the event.
That has thrown into doubt whether he will be able to compete at next month's Masters.
