...Upper Deck On Tuesday, in its first public statement since the scandal broke, Upper Deck, a trading-card and memorabilia company, said it is standing by Woods. "Tiger and his family have our full support," said Richard McWilliam, founder and CEO of Upper Deck. "We look forward to his eventual return to the PGA Tour."
