PLANO, TEXAS, January 10, 2007 – Adams Golf (OTCBB:ADGO) announces the signing of two-time Masters Champion, Bernhard Langer, to its growing list of tour staff professionals. Along with wearing the Adams Golf logo and carrying the Adams Golf tour staff bag, Langer will be playing a full arsenal of the company’s golf clubs throughout the season.
"We’re thrilled to have Bernhard Langer join the Adams Golf family. He’s not only a great player, but he’s also a first-class gentleman and we’re proud that he will represent our company around the world," said Chip Brewer, Adams Golf CEO and President. "He’s known internationally for his successful and consistent career of winning, something we don’t expect will change anytime soon."
Langer’s most recent success came in December when he led Team Germany to its second World Golf Championship in Barbados. That win came on the heels of Langer and his son, Stefan, winning their second consecutive Del Webb Father/Son Challenge title on Dec. 2.
Turning pro in 1972, Langer’s career began with three German National Championships before making his entrance on the American stage in 1985 by winning his first of two Green Jackets. Winning two Masters Championships, 70 international tournaments, playing on 9 Ryder Cup teams and serving as captain of another, Langer earned induction into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2002.
