Callaway® Apparel Ambassador Georgia Hall Captures the Ricoh Women’s British Open
Callaway® Apparel congratulates Georgia Hall on capturing her first Major Championship victory at the 2018 Ricoh Women’s British Open.
“We are thrilled Georgia has won the women’s fourth major of the year in such a dramatic come from behind fashion,” stated Gregg Hemphill, Senior Director Global Soft Goods and Licensing at Callaway Golf. “Our women’s collection provides the ultimate in performance, comfort, style, and versatility, giving Georgia a 15th club in her bag and a big advantage over the rest of the field.”
Playing in front of the home crowd and with her father on her bag, Hall became the fourth the Englishwoman to win the championship. “I had so much support today from all the people backing me and supporting me and cheering my name, and the support, I’m just so grateful,” Hall said after the tournament. Hall played spectacular golf for her maiden victory by shooting four rounds in the sixties with only three bogeys. “I can’t really believe it,” added Hall. “I always said my first professional victory would be a major but I can’t believe it has actually come true.”
Wearing a combination of Callaway polos, skorts, shorts and waterproof pants, Georgia was able to withstand the ever-changing British Open elements so she could perform at the highest level.
