EA will drop the Tiger Woods name from its next-gen golf games. In a post on EA’s official site, Daryl Holt, VP and GM of Golf at EA Sports, wrote that “EA Sports and Tiger Woods have also made a mutual decision to end our partnership, which includes Tiger's named PGA Tour golf game. We’ve always been big fans of Tiger and we wish him continued success in all his future endeavors.”

Holt added that “EA Sports golf fans have always loved authentic courses and players, but they've also asked for more choice and customization in how and where they play. We're working on a new approach to deliver the best golf experience to our fans — we think you'll love it, and so we’re excited to share the first screenshot of our next generation golf game currently in development.”

“Moving forward, we will continue to work with the PGA Tour exclusively to create groundbreaking golfing titles and our partnership remains strong,” he concluded. “EA Sports is committed to creating a new golf experience that leverages the best technologies across EA to deliver a stunning and immersive game for mobile and next generation consoles. We'll have more news soon.”

This makes Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14, which was released earlier this year, the final Tiger Woods game, and resolves a rumor from earlier this year that Tiger Woods 15 had been canceled.

weird that this happens now, and not after the whole fiasco happened with tiger.
 
Yep, There must be more to this fiasco. Maybe he just wanted more money than EA was willing to pay?
Yeah, or they just wanted change. Tiger isn't as popular as he used to be. They could put phil on cover and it would burn tiger so deeply
 
He's not that long off the tee but he comes on strong on the back nine with his up and down game and drives his oh nevermind
