Mark Steinberg, the agent for Tiger Woods the last 12 years and head of the IMG golf division, did not renew his contract Tuesday with the sports management company, The Associated Press reports.
“He is no longer with IMG,” company spokesman Jim Gallagher said.
Steinberg’s contract was to expire in June. He became Woods’ agent three years after he turned pro in August 1996.
At a press conference earlier Tuesday to promote the AT&T National outside Philadelphia, Woods was asked about his future with IMG and with Steinberg.
“I’m committed to both, with IMG, and Mark’s my agent,” Woods said. “It’s been a great relationship. I had a chance to go through a lot of … basically my entire professional career and learn a lot about the business.”
IMG said Guy Kinnings and Robbie Henchman would be co-heads of IMG Golf, with Kinnings as senior vice president of European golf operations, while Henchman for the Asia Pacific region.
