The Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) body has unveiled a marketing partnership with US sports conglomerate Fenway Sports Management (FSM).
The tie-up will focus on developing the tour's commercial agreements with brands, and aims to “create unparalleled opportunities for all stakeholders involved.”
FSM’s partnerships team will now assist in selling LPGA partnership assets across the globe, as it does with other sports properties such as English soccer’s Liverpool, baseball’s Boston Red Sox, ice hockey’s Pittsburgh Penguins, and golf’s TGL Boston.
The aim is to assist the LPGA in expanding its commercial reach, and in identifying and connecting with new commercial partners.
Of the LPGA’s current list of commercial partners, heavyweight brands present include Acer, BetMGM, John Deere, KPMG, NEC, Rolex, Titleist, and Whoop.
In April, the LPGA agreed to a partnership with the golf division of premium experiences company Legends.
