UPDATE: Tiger Woods Ads Off the Air

Tiger Woods' sponsors may have pulled his ads from TV for now. According to CNN, Nielson reported that commercials featuring Woods have not aired since November 29. The last ad was for Gillete and played during "Football Night in America" on NBC. CNNMoney notes that it's not out of the ordinary for Tiger's sponsors to hold off on airing ads that feature the golf superstar for a matter of weeks. Woods' sponsors Gillette, Nike, Gatorade and Electronic Arts claim to be sticking by him. However, Gatorade recently announced that they would be discontinuing Tiger's drink Focus, but denied that it was due to his "Transgressions."
