Tiger Woods Still PGA Tour's Cover Golfer

Despite dropping to number 55 in the world and with all his personal baggage, Tiger Woods is still going to be on the cover of his own game!

By Matt Mann /

EAannounced today that Tiger Woods will still be featured as the cover golfer and namesake for Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13. However, this year he will be joined on the cover by two new golfers Rickie Fowler and this year's U.S. open winner Rory Mcllroy. There had been rumors that Tiger Woods might be replaced on the cover of his own gaming franchise because of the 2009 scandal, and the fact he fell from number one in the world to 55. This is what Tiger Woods had to say:

"There have been a number of great young and up-and-coming golfers to join the sport over the last few years and Rickie Fowler and Rory McIlroy are certainly on that list, Their wins are a testament to their passionate fan base and I'm looking forward to having Rickie and Rory join me on the cover of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13."
In all honesty Tiger Woods still has way too much pull for him not to be on the cover of his own video game, in fact I don't think anyone in golf outside of maybe Phil Mickelson is as marketable as Tiger Woods even after the scandal. Do you think they should remove Tiger Woods from the cover of his own game, or do you think he is still the most marketable golfer?
