This was just \u200cthe beginning, as in 2000 he secured a staggering \u200b$100 million \u200bdeal with Nike, which at the time \u200dwas\u200c the \u200dlargest sponsorship ever awarded to\u2063 an athlete. In 2013, Woods\u2063 signed \u200ca ten-year extension worth a \u2063jaw-dropping \u2062$200 million.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout his career, Woods faced a scandal involving extramarital affairs in 2009, which led to other brands dropping him.

At the time, many questioned the decision, \u200bas\u200d Nike was \u200cprimarily known\u200c for producing athletic shoes\u200b and apparel,\u200b not golf equipment. However, \u200dit quickly became apparent that this partnership \u200dwould be one for \u200dthe ages.<\/p>\n<p>Over the \u200cyears, Woods and Nike revolutionized the world of golf.
