Wilson Golf signs John Augenstein to multi-year deal

Published

on

Wilson Golf announced today that John Augenstein, the former number three ranked amateur in the world, has signed a multi-year deal to join the Wilson Golf Advisory Staff – and will play Wilson’s Staff Model Blades and Staff Model wedges while continuing to test drivers and putters from the company.

Augenstein is coming off an impressive four-year, four-time All-American career at Vanderbilt University where he was named 2020 SEC Player of the Year and was among the finalists for the 2020 Collegiate Player of Year honors. He joins Team Wilson, which includes Gary Woodland, Kevin Streelman, Brendan Steele and Padraig Harrington.

Augenstein participated in both the U.S. Open and The Masters in 2020 and was the runner-up at the 2019 U.S. Amateur. The youngster will make his debut as a professional this week at The American Express.

Speaking on joining Wilson, Augenstein said

“Getting to know the team at Wilson, it just felt like the right fit. When I first started testing their equipment I was blown away at how great of an iron and wedge that they make. As classic of a look as you can get and the feel is incredible. I really love the equipment and I value the people that make it.”
