Former Masters Champion Will Wear ProQuip Wind and Rain Apparel on Tour
Ponte Vedra Beach, FL (April 7, 2008) – Craig Stadler received his first ProQuip rainsuit back in 1983 as a member of the United States Ryder Cup Team. He got another one as a team member in 1985 at The Belfry. Today, a quarter century later, Stadler reconnects with ProQuip as the newest endorsement partner for the venerable leader in technical outerwear for golf.
Stadler, a former Masters champion and 20-time winner on the PGA Tour and Champions Tour, will wear ProQuip’s new Ultralite II rain suit, and Silk Touch and Aquasoft Windshield products in competition through 2009.
“We are thrilled to have Craig as part of the ProQuip team,” says company president Randy Payne. He is one of the most talented and popular faces to ever play on tour, and we look forward to a long and successful relationship."
