Tiger Woods showed up in the Masters media center on Tuesday for his usual pre-Augusta news conference wearing a unique Nike shirt. He was wearing a black polo shirt with an embroidered version of his famous Frank the Tiger headcover on the left breast.
One of the reporters in the room noticed the look and asked Woods about it, and the 14-time major winner explained that it was indeed Frank, the former star of several Nike commercials, on the shirt.
"Oh, that's Frank, my headcover," Woods said with a smile.

Then, at the 2019 PGA Championship, Woods showed up to his Tuesday news conference wearing a white version of the shirt. He's making a bit of a tradition of it.
The next question for a lot of golf fans is: How do I get my hands on that Frank the Tiger headcover shirt? The good news is Nike already has you covered.
After selling out the black version of the polo during the 2019 Masters, Nike is selling a green version of the Nike unisex polo for Nike Plus members (it's free to sign up) for $72. PGA Tour Superstore has a T-shirt version with a bigger Frank the Tiger Headcover for $35. The Nike Polo features a pique fabric with a classic cotton look, as well Dri-Fit technology so a golfer could wear it comfortably on the course or off. Nike even suggests some people would wear this polo shirt to the gym. That's not me, but hey, whatever.
