Patrick Cantlay

[Asia Economy Reporter No Woo-rae] ○…Patrick Cantlay (USA) has become the first sponsored athlete of the global investment bank Goldman Sachs.

On the 16th (Korean time), the American business magazine Forbes reported, "Goldman Sachs has signed a sponsorship contract with Cantlay, who plays on the PGA Tour," adding, "This is the first athlete sponsorship in Goldman Sachs' 150-year history." Goldman Sachs explained, "Our customers who use our products and services have a strong interest in sports, especially golf," and "This sponsorship contract primarily considered Cantlay's tenacious characteristics."

Cantlay is a player who has won two PGA Tour events, including last year's Memorial Tournament. His best major finish was a tie for 3rd place at last year's PGA Championship. Although he had worn Titleist hats until now, since early this year he has been competing with the phrase 'Marcus by Goldman Sachs' printed on the front of his hat. Tonight, he will challenge a consecutive win at the Memorial Tournament, which opens at Muirfield Village in Dublin, Ohio.
