Reports have suggested that EA is set to sue the creators of South Park over one of their newest episode featuring Tiger Woods.

According to an anonymous "source", soon after the airing of the (hilarious) episode in question, this week "the top beef were called in, even Peter Moore was informed of the situation."

The source claims:

"Before the episode aired the marketing folks were already worried, but now they have a lot more to worry about. while I personally found the episode quite funny, there are definitely a few copyright infringements in there that I'm sure will be dealt with accordingly."
Tiger Woods on South Park
If you haven’t already watched it, the episode sees Tiger’s personal life with his ex-wife being played out in a game. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11, to be more precise, which is obviously developed by EA. Make sense now?

The creators of South Park, Trey Parker and Matt Stone have come across many different lawsuits in the past, so it‘s very unlikely that this latest lawsuit is going to slow them down.
