(VÄxjö, Sweden) – Galvin Green – the world’s leading maker of functional golf clothing for serious players and the No. 1 global golf partner of GORE-TEX® – announces the signing of PGA Tour Winner Troy Merritt who will compete in the brand’s range of premium outerwear, tops, bottoms and accessories.
Currently positioned within the top 60 in the FedEx Cup rankings, Merritt started his 2016-2017 season with two top-15 finishes. Since turning professional in 2008, the 31-year-old has notched wins on both the PGA Tour and Web.com Tour, along with winning the Final Stage of PGA Tour Q-School and claiming the $1 million season-long Kodak Challenge prize on the PGA Tour.
“As a global leader in golf apparel, Galvin Green’s premium outerwear offers the technology and performance I need,” says Merritt. “Whether it’s hot, cold, windy or raining, the brand’s proprietary layering system has me covered so I can focus on my game, not the weather.”
Based in Sweden, Galvin Green is a pure golf brand that developed the sport’s first apparel layering system – the Multi-Layer Concept – more than a decade ago. This distinctive approach uses leading-edge fabric technologies to ensure the dry comfort, thermal regulation and outer protection that helps players optimize performance.
“With Troy’s experience on Tour, we know he will be an excellent brand ambassador and we expect him to be in the winner’s circle again soon,” says Andrew Creed, President of Galvin Green USA. “He’s started off this season strong and is poised for a successful 2017.”
Galvin Green is the Official Team Supplier of Outerwear for the 2016 and 2018 European Ryder Cup Teams. Through this partnership, the company will provide its premium waterproof garments to the captains, vice captains, team members and their caddies during the upcoming matches at Hazeltine National Golf Club (2016) and Le Golf National (2018).
Also distinguishing the brand is its ‘Dress for the Weather’ app. Free on the App Store or Google Play, the app provides detailed five-day forecasts for thousands of courses in the U.S., Canada, the U.K. and Europe, and recommends ideal layering solutions for expected levels of heat, precipitation and wind speed.
