Ping re-signs Oosthuizen to multi-year deal

Published

on

Ping has re-signed Louis Oosthuizen to a multi-year contract that will keep him using the Phoenix-based company’s golf clubs and wearing its apparel.

[quote_box_center]“Louis has a beautiful, fluid swing we’d all love to have; it is widely regarded as one of the best on tour,” said John Solheim, Ping’s Chairman and CEO. “On top of it, he has one of the most recognizable smiles in the game, and his easygoing nature makes him a fan favorite. Most important to his success, he’s remarkably consistent. Because of that, he has been among golf’s top players for several years and we’re proud to continue our long-standing relationship with someone who represents Ping so well across the world.”[/quote_box_center]

As part of the agreement, Oosthuizen will wear a Ping hat, carry a Ping staff bag and play a minimum of 11 Ping clubs, including a Ping driver and putter.

Oosthuizen, 32, has won seven times on the European Tour, including his major championship win at the 2010 Open Championship. He had one of the best years of his career in 2015, contending in both the 2015 U.S. Open (he finished T2), and Open Championship, where he lost in a playoff to winner Zach Johnson.

He is also one of 30 players who earned a spot in this week’s Tour Championship, the last event of the 2014-2015 PGA Tour season and its Playoff finale. He is currently the No. 13 in the Official World Golf Rankings.

    11 Clubs? I assume that give the flexibility to use different fairway woods and hybrids

    If he stays healthy he would be a safe bet to win a few more majors, South Africa seems to be a place that produces great swingers of the club. Him and Charl have some of the best swings on tour.

    Good luck to him. My favourite swing on tour. Seems like a good guy too.
