Walt Disney Co. is preparing to announce that it has signed Tiger Woods as a spokesman for various Disney properties, an executive familiar with the deal told The Wall Street Journal.

Mr. Woods won his fourth straight major golf championship last weekend. The agreement would solidify the 25-year-old Mr. Woods’s position as one of the most prominent endorsers in professional sports. Last year, Mr. Woods earned an estimated $54 million from a dozen endorsement deals, according to Burns Sports Celebrity Service in Chicago.
