Nike has signed PGA Tour player Lucas Glover for 2007.
“Lucas is an outstanding all-around athlete who has demonstrated impressive performance on the PGA Tour in a short period of time,” said Kel Devlin, global sports marketing director for Nike Golf.
“He’s a long hitter, very strong, and we believe one of the most promising young athletes out there. We are very excited that he has joined the Nike Golf family.”
“When I saw the success that Nike players were having with Nike products on Tour, it caught my attention and certainly peaked my interest,” said Glover.
“Because of my curiosity, I made a trip to Nike’s Fort Worth facility to try out some products and was thoroughly impressed. I was sold right there and then.”
Glover joined the PGA Tour in 2004. Last year, he finished in the top 10 nine times and ended the year by ranking 21st on the PGA Tour money list, a new career best.
