The long-time AOR (Wieden + Kennedy) for Nike Inc. has debuted a new Tiger Woods ad in time for the Masters.
Similar to the defiant Kobe ad (opens as pdf. Does anyone have the larger size ad? I used to have a higher-resolution jpg and the body copy is really well-written.) released after Kobe's acquittal of sexual assault charges in 2003, this ad has shades of independence and does not mention Nike golf products at all.

Tiger by the tail.
I did not think much of it. Fake. It did not motivate me in any way. I personally think we're not concentrating on what is important: GOLF.
I agree with you Francisco. Not much emotion involved.
I think Nike and W+K rushed this ad out so they can have some presence. It's not as well thought out or refined as their previous ads.
