Former Kent State graduate becomes brand’s fist signing on the Symetra Tour
Leading Italian golf fashion brand Duca del Cosma has added Swedish Symetra Tour rookie Michaela Finn to the growing portfolio of professional players wearing its distinctive shoes.
Working hard to fulfill her ambition of playing on the LPGA Tour, Michaela is set to compete in the Symetra Tour’s return event in Michigan later this month wearing her favorite Duca del Cosma shoes.
“I’m looking forward to being back out on the Symetra Tour turning heads with my footwear and my game,” said Michaela. “Duca del Cosma shoes are very comfortable and I love how the design is so thought through – every detail is there for a reason and just completes the look.
“These details put Duca del Cosma at an advantage and they catch people’s eyes right away. I’ll be playing in the POSE shoes a lot in different colors, plus the MARQUESSA shoe in Gold. I love having the opportunity to change my shoes from day to day,” she added.
A graduate from Kent State University, Michaela was a member of ‘The Golden Flashes’ team that won the 21st consecutive Mid-American Women’s Golf Conference championship last year.
“We are really excited to have such a promising and talented young player as Michaela become our first signing in the US,” said Diederik Moreu, International Sales Director at Duca del Cosma. “As a talented European golfer, she has shown great determination to do well in the most competitive environment and we’re thrilled to be able to support her aspirations on the American Tours with our latest range of Duca del Cosma shoes,” he added.
A Swedish international player since the age of 14, Michaela was among those making history last year by competing in the first ever women’s amateur event at Augusta. During her short professional career, she has won the Swedish Golf Tour title and been runner up at the Eggland’s Best Tour Championship on the NWGA Tour, the developmental golf Tour for aspiring women professionals.
Once ranked 45th in the world as an amateur, she was a winner of the Jim West Challenge, the Illini Invitational and the MA Championship. She also had top three finishes in the European Girls’ and Ladies Team Championships, plus the Girls’ British Open Amateur Championship.
Duca del Cosma POSE spikeless golf shoes feature Italian styling and fashionable color options in Rose Pink/Navy and Rose white/Black. They incorporate a waterproof bootie system with a breathable membrane and Airplay VI outsole for enhanced stability during the swing, plus a comfortable Arneflex® insole with a memory foam. The metallic Nappa leather MARQUESSA Gold spikeless golf shoe is designed for female golfers looking to impress on and off the golf course. Other models in the style include Gold and Silver versions with animal prints such as Zebra, plus plain Silver. All shoes come with two pairs of luxurious laces to match with different outfits.
