I thought a player lost their amateur status to play in amateur events if they earned money on their golfing ability? No?

As Charlie rejoices about his new apparel deal, Tiger Woods is entangled in rumors with Nike. The golf god is supposedly parting ways with his long-term business relationship.
Is Tiger Woods Concluding His Journey With Nike?
Tiger Woods entered into an endorsement deal with Nike in 1996. Since then, the contract has been renewed plenty of times, and it is reported that over the years, Nike paid a total of $500 million to Woods. But the separation news has been circulating since the 2022 Masters, where Woods was noticed wearing FootJoy.
Recent reports also say that TaylorMade is expanding its business and opening an affordable apparel brand, which might sponsor Tiger’s specialized shoes. At the PNC Championship, Woods was asked to explain the situation. He remarked diplomatically,
“I’m still wearing their product.”
Whether the journey will continue or conclude, it’s uncertain as of yet. Only time can tell what will come of this lucrative partnership.
