Sometimes Tiger wears the Nike Swoosh on his hat and sometimes the has his own TW Logo. Does anyone know how he decides which day to wear which? Thanks, Jim

I believe this is correct - originally his agreement called for him to be able to wear his TW logo on Thurs/Fri but then Nike required him to switch everything up front to the Nike logo. Not sure if its the fact that all rounds are now routinely covered on national TV and Tiger is demanding more exposure or, more likely, Tiger made it clear to Nike that as long as they wanted him around they would defer to whatever he wanted to do. The swoosh is in the back now on the weekends like the TW used to be.

Well, for what it's worth, the version of the hat that Nike sells to the public has the TW on the front and the Nike swoosh on the back. (I have two of 'em.)

Good way to put it- the TW emblem looking like a 7th graders initials sketched on a book cover, and I agree that Norman's logo is classy, still seen on his wines. on a similar note- golden bear logo OK lion- goofy.

But in this case it is a pretty dumb looking brand, although it could be used to brand cattle or sheep. I guess if you are a big time golfer, you need a logo. I always thought Greg Norman's shark looked cool. Tiger's logo just looks dorky.

In answer to someone else's comments about it sometimes being on the front, sometimes on the back, this, I think is how that shook out... Back when Tiger was using his original logo (that ying-and-yang kinda thing), it always appeared on the side or the back, with the Nike swoosh on the front. Once Tiger switched over to the TW logo, it has always appeared on the front of his caps. FWIW, I just did a Google search trying to find that old ying-and-yang Tiger logo, and I can't find it anywhere. Anybody got it? Randy

In previous seasons Tiger had the TW on the front and the Swoosh on the back for the first two rounds and then after the cut was mad the Swoosh moved to the front and the TW moved to the back. I noticed this past tournament that the TW was on the front for all four rounds. I didn't notice where the swoosh was located on the hat. Tiger might have had a clause or two changed when he signed with Nike again. "R&B" wrote: > He always wears the TW logo on the front.
