Nike's latest Tiger Woods ad sparks controversy

Winning can take care of many things, but some are questioning the wording of Nike's newest ad with Tiger Woods. The 14-time major champion returned to the No. 1 spot in the Official World Golf Ranking with his win over the weekend, and Nike released this on Monday:

After Tiger's well-publicized affairs, the 14-time major champion lost major endorsements with companies such as Gatorade and AT&T. Golf Digest's relationship with Woods also ended, but Nike stuck with the embattled star, and has been using him in its commercials as frequently as ever in 2013.

Nike isn't afraid to push the limits to generate buzz and its latest ad has people talking. Does it send the wrong message or is it simply meant to inspire? Let us know what you think.
