CARLSBAD, Calif. (Dec. 11, 2013) – Today,
COBRA PUMA GOLF announced
its partnership extension with professional golfer and brand ambassador,
Lexi Thompson. As part of the extension, Thompson will continue to have
a prominent presence throughout COBRA PUMA
GOLF activities in 2014 and beyond.
“Lexi
Thompson has been an instrumental global force for the company’s growth
over the past three years,” said Bob Philion, president of COBRA PUMA
GOLF. “We are thrilled to continue our work with her in the coming
years and watch her evolve as a world-class golfer and trend-setter on
and off the course.”
Notably,
at the age of 15, Thompson was the first professional athlete to sign
with both COBRA Golf and PUMA Golf after the brands joined forces to be
formally known as COBRA PUMA GOLF. Since turning professional
in June 2010, she has been a key brand ambassador, sporting COBRA Golf
equipment and PUMA Golf attire on and off the course. Over the course of
the partnership, Thompson has also developed her own signature look –
The Sunday Blue – which features PUMA Golf’s
seasonal hue of blue apparel from head to toe.
“Being
part of the COBRA PUMA GOLF team has played a huge role in the success
of my professional golf career, and I’m excited to continue our
partnership,” said Thompson. “I’m looking forward to the new
opportunities
and challenges the coming years will bring with the COBRA PUMA GOLF
family behind me.”
Since
joining the brand, Thompson has secured five professional wins,
including the Navistar LPGA Classic, Dubai Ladies Masters, Fuzion Minor
League Golf Tour, Sime Darby LPGA and her most recent win at the Lorena
Ochoa Invitational. In 2014, she will look to continue her winning
streak with COBRA Golf’s BiO CELL Driver, BiO CELL+ Irons and Tour
Trusty wedges.
