I'm blown away by this newest Nike advertisement. People may watch it and not know what to think and that is understandable, but this is deep, real deep. Earl Woods was the father of Tiger, his mentor, his coach, his best friend; he was also ranked a Lieutenant Colonel in the United States Army Special Forces while serving in Vietnam, he was also an author, he was also a very competitive athlete. Earl passed away on May 3rd, 2006, leaving people in disbelief and feeling skeptical about this new commercial which features Earl talking to Tiger in the background, while Tiger stands there motionless in a black and white frame sporting a Nike hat and tee. The audio track of the commercial was taken from a 2004 interview of Earl for the documentary DVD "Tiger: The Authorized DVD Collection", in which Earl discussed comparing the "authoritative" nature of his wife, Kultida, to his own "inquisitive" nature. Needless to say, this commercial came out at perfect timing and was a great stepping stone for Tiger to get back into the real world. Hell, he shot his best 1st round ever at a Master's Tournament in his career yesterday shooting a -4 (68), tied for 8th and just 2 strokes back from the lead. Hate to break it to ya people, but Tiger's back and better than ever.
