The simple fact of the matter is that there is no other golfer that comes close to Tiger Woods status or renown. Tiger Woods is golf to the mainstream public. Non-golfers would struggle to name two other golfers. EA of course wants a broad an audience as possible and that means keeping Tiger.
Some women may refuse to buy it because of Tiger but I don't think that'll hurt sales too much. Also the next edition isn't due for a while, hopefully things will have blown over by then.
Really the only problem is Tiger is no longer playing golf.... At least, not currently.
