EA and Tiger Woods have parted ways. EA has been transitioning away from Woods for the past couple of years. Once they secured the Masters it was only time until Woods would be off the cover... Like he was last year. The endorsement fee was probably something EA no longer wanted to pay and with no other golf games on the market there's no competition. They get to save money from the Woods endorsement contract while still sell the same amount units.
