ORLANDO, Fla. -- TigerWoods.com has been recognized as the top Athletes Award by SportBusiness Group in its annual Ultimate Sports Websites Awards.
TigerWoods.com won four of the seven categories -- Multimedia Content, General Content, Monetisation, and Partnership Activation.
Relaunched in June 2009, the site earned praise from the judges for its "general and multimedia content," and said it also "delivered for sponsors." TigerWoods.com was also lauded for its attractive, clean layout, menu bar and easy access for fans to register, log in and search the site.
The judges also liked such features as Club Tiger, which enables members to receive regular newsletters from Woods, fantasy games and fan contests, and the message board.
"This is a nice honor," said Woods, the top-ranked golfer in the world. "A lot of people have worked very hard to improve our product, and the recognition is well-deserved. This year-round site was created for my fans, and I'm extremely grateful for their loyalty and support."
