There is going to be one hell of a bidding war for this kid.

Interesting.

He signed a 3 year deal on February 4th, 2010.

I've been wondering this for awhile as well. Probably safe to say he will not be representing them after this sponsorship is over

Wow I wonder if someone else can buy him out of that contract?

I am thinking Nike or Titleist is going to make a serious offer soon.

Nike might be looking to transition out of the Tiger generation and Titleist is probably worried that they are going to miss out like with Tiger.

He hits Titleist irons right now I think. Could be off on that. But I know he hits the titleist driver.

He's a Titleist staffer. It's just that Jumeirah paid much more for the hat space. This happens alot. He's also under contract with Oakley for clothing so wouldn't be surprised to see them make a big push for his headwear.

Rory is great, but people and companies can't crown him yet, he hasn't accomplished anything. (although it looks as if he will soon)

I'm thinking this or maybe Calloway

Absolutely! But if he goes the rest of his career without another major, that will be a blip. Let's see him win some more and then talk about "the next Tiger."

But for the purpose of this thread, yes, he is DEFINITELY an up and comer and needs a big contract with a big label.

Me either.


I know we shouldn't crown him as the next Tiger, but these companies are always looking for an edge and will try to get on him early.
