PXG signed three-time Masters champion (1961, 1974 and 1978) and 24-time PGA Tour winner Gary Player to an endorsement deal.
Player will compete in The 2019 Masters Par 3 Contest, and hit the ceremonial opening first tee shot, with 14 PXG clubs in the bag.
“Golf is a puzzle without an answer,” Player said in a press release. “While I’ve been at it for years, I still haven’t the slightest idea how to play. However, I have learned that the tools you choose will go a long way toward putting together a better round. PXG clubs are my tools of choice for this chapter of my career. They are simply remarkable.”
Player joins PXG’s current PGA Tour staff that includes Zach Johnson (2007 Masters champion), Charl Schwartzel (2011 Masters champion), Billy Horschel (2014 FedEx Cup champion), Ryan Moore, Pat Perez, James Hahn, Wyndham Clark and Scott Langley.
“Gary Player has had one of the most remarkable careers in golf,” PXG founder and CEO Bob Parsons said. “He personifies what PXG has set forth to accomplish – to be the finest example of excellence in the industry. I have tremendous respect for Mr. Player, and couldn’t be prouder to count him among the PXG Troops.”
