A talented group of people manages the Woods SPAC. The Chairman of LeAD Sports ltd. Andrew White, a managing partner of Excel Sports Management, Mark Steinberg, the chief financial officer of Tiger Woods Ventures, Christopher Hubman, are all part of the management team.
Furthermore, Tennis star Caroline Wozniacki and retired NBA player David Lee are among the executives in this new project. The trio brings a powerful portfolio with them and while Woods is the lead investor, the Woods-Wozniacki relationship is crucial for the project’s success, as per a document:
“Their relationships and experience produce proprietary deal flow that, when paired with leAD’s rich industry experience and subject-matter expertise as well as its own corporate network, will allow the company to be competitively positioned to source and select a value-generating target opportunity, and generate value post combination,” the document states.
