Adam Scott to Play at 2016 Masters Tournament in Golfwear Co-Developed with UNIQLO
In pursuit of his second Green Jacket
NEW YORK, March 31, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Adam Scott, Australian professional golfer and UNIQLO Global Brand Ambassador, will play in the 2016 Masters Tournament. This preeminent golf championship will be played from April 4 through 10 in Augusta, Georgia, USA. In pursuing his second triumph in this event, Adam will wear several items of golf apparel* that he developed jointly with UNIQLO. They include Dry Stretch Pants, the Dry EX Polo Shirt, and Jogger Pants, which are a fashionable, relatively new golfwear item.
UNIQLO seeks to offer affordable items in keeping with the LifeWear philosophy of providing comfortable clothing that matches all lifestyles. It is thus drawing on valuable feedback from top athletes like Adam to create clothing that delivers even greater quality to customers. An excellent example is the Dry Stretch Pants that Adam will wear at the Masters. This item incorporates a highly breathable, stretch fabric around the waist that reflects his impressions from practice and gameplay. These pants deliver outstanding comfort even in intense heat while looking great as business or casual wear.
Commenting on his golf apparel line, Adam Scott said that, "I've had a great start to the season, winning back-to-back events on the PGA Tour for the first time in my career. The goal now is to maintain this momentum leading into Augusta." He added, "Working with UNIQLO, we have developed the Dry Stretch Pants, Dry EX Polo Shirt and Jogger Pants. I'm very pleased with the fabrics, style and fit of the clothing, ensuring I'm completely comfortable and able to perform at my best both on and off the course. These are some of UNIQLO's 'made-for-all' clothing items that I plan on wearing at this year's Masters."
*All of the items are available now at UNIQLO stores and online, as well as UNIQLO stores around the world (without the UNIQLO logo). Items to be worn at the tournament are subject to change.
