Hadwin made history this past week at the CareerBuilder Challenge, becoming the 4th player in PGA TOUR history to shoot sub 60 on a par 72 course. As Hadwin sunk a 3-footer on the 18th hole on Saturday, he finished the round with an incredible 59, the first Canadian ever to do so on the PGA TOUR.

Apparel that allows me to feel good from a performance, innovation and style perspective is something that has always been important to me,” said Hadwin. “Throughout the process of testing Levelwear’s apparel, I was thrilled to learn of its comfort, flexibility, and quality while still manifesting a sense of style.
