Tiger Woods and Nike announced their widely publicized breakup earlier in January. According to Golf, TaylorMade has filed a new patent that seems to indicate that the two companies are close to signing an apparel deal.
TaylorMade Lifestyle Ventures LLC filed multiple trademark applications for a Sunday Red brand with the US Patent and Trademark Office.
Since Woods already owns TaylorMade golf clubs, this would be a logical extension of his relationship with the company. Following the golf icon’s departure from Nike, rumors began to circulate that Woods might join with TaylorMade. These rumors intensified when the golf retailer retweeted an episode of Woods’ participation on the TaylorMade podcast, captioning it with the phrase “Stay tuned.”
