Glenmuir renew partnership with International Pairs
Published: Last updated:
Prestigious golf clothing company Glenmuir has revived its relationship with International Pairs and agreed a deal to be the official supplier for the 2009 world final at Carnoustie from October 11-13.
Competitors and staff at the tournament will receive a range of Glenmuir products branded with the International Pairs World Final logo, including a waterproof top, polo shirt and cap.
The Scottish-based company last teamed up with International Pairs at the 2000 world final in Ireland and sales director Graham Hayward is looking forward to working with the global competition again.
“Glenmuir is delighted to be involved with such a prestigious global event,” said Hayward.
“As we know from years of supporting the European Ryder Cup team, in this type of pressurised environment it is essential to look good and feel comfortable on the course.
“By wearing Glenmuir, each member of staff and finalist can be sure of getting the very best in style and performance from their clothing.”
Glenmuir has been the preferred supplier to the European Ryder Cup team for 23 years and enjoys partnerships with the PGAs of Europe, the European Tour and the English Golf Union among others.
The new agreement with International Pairs follows after the company finalised deals this year to supply the team kit to the Great Britain and Ireland Walker Cup and PGA teams and both teams in the Vivendi Trophy.
Ross Honey, managing director and founder of International Pairs, said: “Glenmuir is a clothing brand that is synonymous with the best golf competitions in the world.
“Their involvement in International Pairs can only strengthen our status across the world and it is fantastic to be working with them again.”
Competitors from 20 countries including South Africa, America, Spain, Canada and Portugal will gather at Carnoustie next month for the chance to be crowned as the sixth International Pairs world champions.
This year will also see Romania, Antigua and Barbuda make their debuts in the 36-hole event, which will be played over two days on Monifieth’s Medal Course – an Open qualifying venue – and the Championship Course at Carnoustie – venue for the 2007 Open Championship.
