Proctor & Gamble's Gillette brand will end its sponsorship agreement with Tiger Woods on December 31,2010 , USA Today reported Thursday .
The company , which sells men's grooming products like shaving cream and razors is dropping Woods as part of its plans to end Gillette campaign , spokeman Michael Norton told USA Today .
The campaign was launched in 2007 behind Woods , tennis star Rogar Federer and french soccer player Thierry Henry .
Gillette also plans to cut ties with Henry and fellow football stars Lional Mersi , Kaka and Rafa Marquez , but will keep using Federer , Yankee shortstop Derek Jeter and NHL star Alexander Ovechkin in its ads .
Since news of Tiger Woods numerous extramarital affairs broke in late 2009 , Woods has also lost lucrative sponsorship deals with AT&T , Accentune and Gatorade .
Woods divoriced from Elin Nordegren in August and struggled through the worst professional season of his career failinf to win a single tournament in 2010 .
Just a thought : Tiger's dad built a championship golfer , too bad Tigers' dad did not give him a soul .... Woods = Sleaze ... good move Gillette .
