Ping extends deal with LPGA star In Gee Chun

Published

on

Ping has signed In Gee Chun, a two-time LPGA major champion and No. 4-ranked golfer in the Rolex World Rankings, to a multi-year deal.

Since turning pro in 2012, the now 22-year-old has won 13 times worldwide including the 2016 Evian Masters and the 2015 U.S. Women’s Open. She was also awarded the LPGA tour’s Louise Suggs Rolex Rookie of the Year honor in 2016.

“In Gee has been playing at an elite level since she turned pro in 2012, but it’s still amazing that she’s only 22 and has already won 13 times worldwide,” Ping Chairman John A. Solheim said in a press release. “As her multiple major titles demonstrate, she has a tremendous all-around game and her consistency is what any player looks for. It seems like if she’s not winning she’s always in the mix on Sunday. We welcome the continuation of our relationship with In Gee and we look forward to watching her compete in the coming year.”

The deal with Ping dictates that Chun uses a Ping staff bag, showcases a Ping logo on the side of her hat and that she plays a minimum off 11 Ping clubs including a Ping driver and putter.

Here’s are the Ping clubs in her bag currently as she tees it up in this week’s Honda LPGA Thailand.

    But it’s so weird how so many of the Korean female star players all play Srixon balls and not their own Volvik

    Smart signing. Sung Hyun Park plays Ping too. Two young elites on the staff.
