Wolsey Signs Three British Golfers to Endorsement Deals
January 21, 2014
Clothing company Wolsey have announced three British golfers will endorse the brand on the European Tour this year.
Robert Rock, apoplectic Tom Lewis and James Heath have all signed multi-year agreements with Wolsey to wear its recently re-launched historic Sports Line Sportsman Collection. As part of the team of inspiring pioneers being built by Wolsey, they will work closely with the design and product development team to offer their valuable input. They will also take leading roles in the brand’s new AW14 advertising campaign starting in July. Both Rock and Lewis wore Wolsey this week at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship.
“Robert, Tom and James are the epitome of a Wolsey Sportsman and they are joining our team during an exciting time in our brand’s evolution,” said Louis Wolcott, Wolsey brand director. “We are planning to recreate a team of inspiring pioneers that champion Wolsey’s spirit of adventure and demonstrate key brand messages through advertising campaigns and media activities.”
“I’m really impressed by the modern, clean look and attention to detail in the Sportsman collection,” said Rock. “It’s a distinctive line and performs incredibly well.”
23-year-old Tom Lewis burst onto the golf scene in 2012 winning the Silver medal as the leading amateur in the Open Championship.
James Heath, 30, finished 2013 on a high claiming his PGA European Tour playing privileges for the first time since 2007. He had a superb amateur career winning both the English Amateur Championship and the Lytham Trophy in 2004.
