No, it's no a Michael Jordan-esque changing of sports gone wrong. But let's call this what it is - an odd partnership.
TigerWoods.com, the official Web site of golfer Tiger Woods, and MLB Advanced Media LP (MLBAM), the interactive media and Internet company of Major League Baseball, announced that they have entered into a multi-year agreement under which MLBAM will host, manage and operate TigerWoods.com in concert with the golfer's staff. The new TigerWoods.com has been re-launched in advance of his title defense at the 2009 United States Open Championship and includes unrestricted access to exclusive content from Mr. Woods, including Tiger Tips, Tiger's Blog, Dear Tiger and his Fitness Q&A.
Tiger Woods is a world-class athlete and person and this partnership is an exciting opportunity to support his digital initiatives by leveraging our proven state-of-the-art technological infrastructure, particularly in the area of streaming high-quality video," said Leslie Gittess, vice president, business development, MLBAM. - Source: PR Newswire
I find hard to believe that just because MLB has done a good job of offering the streaming of high quality video that it automatically leads to them working with Tiger Woods.
