The bond between Tiger Woods and Nike is inseparable. The most famous golfer in the history of this sport has been associated with Nike since 1996. Woods was a child prodigy and was already a well-known name in the sporting world even before his pro debut. Moreover, the 15-time major championship winner revolutionized golf and made it a global sport. 

Meanwhile, his first signing with Nike came in 1996, just before his pro debut at the Greater Milwaukee Open. So let us have a look at Tiger Woods’ Nike contract and get to know more about this powerful pairing. 

What is the worth of Tiger Woods’ Nike Contract?

The first deal Tiger Woods signed with Nike was worth $40 million for five years in 1996. According to the reports, Tiger’s next contract came in 2001, which was more than double his initial contract.

This was said to be roughly worth $100 million with a similar five years span. The third deal came in 2006, but this time it was for seven years until 2013.
