NEW YORK – March 14, 2017 – Revo has signed a multi-year agreement to be a sunglass partner of the PGA Ambassador Program. A global performance eyewear brand known as the leader in polarized lens technology, Revo will now be available to this elite group of PGA Professionals through the PGA Ambassador Program.
“We are extremely pleased that Revo Sunglasses has committed to a multi-year agreement with PGA Magazine and their commitment to green grass PGA Professionals. Long term partners like Revo make PGA Magazine and the Ambassador Program a better resource for all PGA Professionals,” said Rick Summers, CEO of PGA Magazine. “With a renewed commitment to golf, Revo is a perfect fit for green grass PGA Professionals, as they have a wide array of men and women styles built specifically for wearing on and off the course.”
Cliff Robinson, President of Revo Sunglasses, remarked on their decision to support the Ambassador Program, “Working with PGA Professionals and their businesses was a natural step in Revo’s growth and expansion. Revo is committed to focusing on the golf industry and our extensive lens palette is perfect for managing the unique light conditions experienced on the course. As an added bonus, we’ve partnered with Bono on the Buy Vision, Give Sight initiative. For every pair of Revos sold, we donate $10 to help those fighting for their sight. Together, we are committed to preventing vision impairment and preventable blindness in more than 5 million children and adults by 2020.”

In a sport with unique light requirements, the Revo lens palette has numerous offerings for golfers to improve contrast and visual acuity while also highlighting key parts of the light spectrum for a more precise visual experience on the course.
