Nike Golf’s tour staff players will once again feature innovative new designs and apparel technology in their outfits during next week’s Open Championship from Hoylake.
As with other major outfitters, Nike Golf’s players will be ready for the unpredictable nature of Open Championship weather.
“Our athletes will be prepared for every possible weather condition at Royal Liverpool,” says Merritt Richardson, VP of Global Golf Apparel and Footwear. “Every piece of apparel – from polos to sweaters to cover-ups – is made for easy layering and built to move with the athlete’s body. We’ve armed our athletes with some of Nike Golf’s newest and most innovative pieces from the Fall 2014 collection to keep them warm and comfortable no matter what each round brings.”
