Abacus has entered into a sponsorship agreement with Nicole Hage, a professional golf player on the LPGA Tour and the LPGA Futures Tour. Her best finish in 2010 was T20 at the Navistar LPGA Classic. As a brand ambassador for Abacus, she will wear the clothing at all tournaments and support the brand worldwide by featuring the Abacus logo on all apparel.
Nicole started 2011 by playing in five events in Australia and New Zealand. She successfully made the cut each week playing 4 consecutive weeks in Australia and the final week in New Zealand. She finished T10 at the 2010 LPGA qualifying school. Another unique moment came in 2010 when the Bleacher Report ranked her as one of the 25 sexiest single female athletes in sports last year. In 2008, Nicole competed in seven LPGA events and carded her career low 67 in the final round of the Navistar LPGA Classic.
Nicole was a fourÌ¢?åtime National Golf Coaches Association (NGCA) AllÌ¢?åAmerican at Auburn University. In
2004, Nicole was the SEC Player of the Year and also won the SEC Freshman of the Year award. She started playing golf at age three and credits her parents and Auburn coach Kim Evans as the people most influencing her career.
