(LONDONDERRY, NH) ECCO GOLF, a global leader in golf shoe manufacturing, welcomes LPGA Tour player Alison Lee to its team of brand ambassadors. The 29-year-old Los Angeles native brings a wealth of talent and will step into the 2024 season wearing the ECCO GOLF TRAY.
“I can’t wait to get started in 2024 wearing ECCO GOLF shoes. They are by far the most comfortable golf shoes I’ve ever worn, and having the opportunity to take the next step with the brand as a global ambassador is a wonderful opportunity,” she commented.
The World No. 18 enjoyed one of her most successful seasons as a professional with three runner-up finishes and two additional top-10s on the LPGA Tour in 2023. She is a two-time winner on the Ladies European Tour with victories at last year’s Aramco Team Series Riyadh and the Aramco Team Series Sotogrande in 2021.
Lee enjoyed a meteoric rise through the amateur ranks earning her LPGA Tour card at Q-School as a UCLA sophomore, receiving the 2013 ANNIKA Award as the nation’s top college player and being named the Pac-12 Player and Freshman of the Year after winning the 2014 Pac-12 Championship. She competed in the 2014 Curtis Cup, played in five LPGA events as an amateur and represented Team USA in the 2015 Solheim Cup during her rookie season on Tour.
