When the news spread about Tiger Wood secret affairs with many girls, it was just the beginning of Tiger Woods brand value drop which later on effected so many other brands also falling from free fall, like a stone from the sky.

He was the only person, who made about a billion dollar a year solely from the brands, he represented. Some biggest names like accenture, Gillette and Tag Heur pulled their brand endorsement instantly sponsor from his name. As his image was bankable as very secure and reliable, and this affair with many just tarnished his image as dependable brand. When he took some time off from his messy professional life to save his marriage; just then Irene [ his wife] asked for a divorce, which caused more damage to his brand image.


For Gods shake, it is U.S.A and people are believed to be more tolerant towards the extra marital affairs but not always it ends up in public glare like Tiger woods.

Like all the western country America is not a conservative nation at all, when it comes to sex. But fall of Tiger Wood tells us very different story about the mind set of westerners as he did not plummet to dust from the sky with his poor performance on PGA or any other respective competitors rise. His sexual habit, his character pulled him from the grace.
