AT&T is latest to dump Tiger Woods

AT&T is the latest sponsor to drop Tiger Woods following his infidelity allegations.

AT&T Inc. said Thursday it would no longer sponsor Tiger Woods.


The phone company hasn't used Woods' image extensively in advertising, but its logo appeared on his golf bag. That deal had been billed as a "multiyear" agreement when it was signed early in 2009.

Tiger Woods has also been the host of the AT&T National PGA Tour event since it started in 2007.

Tour spokesman Ty Votaw said that since Woods is on indefinite leave from professional golf, he will not serve as host for the 2010 event.
