"It was the holy grail -- the most sought after image in the world -- but when the first image of &lt;strong&gt;Tiger Woods &lt;/strong&gt;was released through &lt;strong&gt;Getty Images&lt;/strong&gt; yesterday, the move blocked the paparazzi from their million dollar shot. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://www.tmz.com/photos/2010/02/18/2492-tiger-woods-on-the-run\"&gt;&lt;img alt=\"Tiger Woods Run\" src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/06/19/tiger-woods-run-1.jpg\" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TMZ has checked around with some major paparazzi agencies, who tell us the first picture of Tiger could have scored them more than $1,000,000 in worldwide distribution profits. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But when the image was released through Getty Images -- a non-paparazzi, subscription-based photo agency -- the value of the photo plummeted ... as most major media outlets got the pic essentially for free as part of their deal with Getty. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FYI -- Just 24 days before the shot was taken, Getty had announced a \"multi-year\" deal with the PGA, in which both sides touted the move as a \"strategic partnership.\" Turns out, they were right.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We called Getty for comment -- but they're on lockdown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;\n&lt;div class=\"related\"&gt;\n&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span&gt;More Tiger Woods&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;\n&lt;ul&gt;\n&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=\"http://www.tmz.com/2010/02/17/tiger-woods-running-nike-jogging-florida-elin-nordegren/\"&gt;Tiger Woods on the Run -- The Photo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;\n&lt;/ul&gt;\n&lt;/div&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
