G/FORE AMBASSADOR PHIL MICKELSON PUTS ON A FINAL ROUND MASTERCLASS AT THE AT&T PEBBLE BEACH INVITATIONAL TO SECURE 44TH PGA TOUR TITLE
Los Angeles, California – Luxury lifestyle brand, G/FORE stepped into the winner’s circle again on Monday at the PGA Tour’s AT&T Pebble Beach Invitational, with brand ambassador Phil Mickelson putting on one of his masterclass performances while wearing his Gallivanter shoes and claiming his fifth title and 44th PGA Tour victory.
The Collection Gallivanter is fully waterproof and constructed using full-grain leather. As stylish as it is comfortable, it forms part of the recently launched G/FORE Spring/Summer 2019 collection and is available in a variety of fashionable colours.
Entering Sunday’s final round with a three-shot deficit, the 48-year-old West coast native produced some stunning golf around the turn, finishing with a bogey-free 65, making key birdies at the 13th and 14th holes to take command of the tournament while the leader faltered.
In all, Mickelson produced six birdies in the final round with some relentless iron play, attacking the pins at every opportunity. After play was suspended due to bad light on Sunday evening, Phil added a par on 17 and a birdie at 18 on Monday morning, to close out a three-shot victory.
G/FORE Founder, Mossimo Giannulli, said: “It was fantastic to see Phil capture his 44th PGA Tour title this weekend and, once again, trusting the superior performance and styling of our G/FORE shoes. When Phil’s playing at his very best, attacking the pins on every hole, it really does bring an exciting dimension to golf.
He epitomises what we are trying to achieve with the G/FORE brand in adding some elegance and personality to golf, both on and off the course.”
G/FORE recently unveiled its much-anticipated ‘Irreverent Elegance’ inspired Spring / Summer 19 collection, featuring a stunning line-up of men’s and women’s shoes, apparel, gloves and headwear in a variety of classic and street-inspired designs which are synonymous with the LA based brand.
