TRAVIS MATHEW TAPS CHRIS PRATT AS AMBASSADOR

Travis Mathew has tapped actor Chris Pratt as the latest celebrity to officially partner with the golf brand.

Pratt is Travis Mathew’s first ambassador in the entertainment space but joins a well-rounded roster of professional athletes including Jon Rahm, Matt Ryan, Jimmy Garoppolo, Corey Seager, and Alex Caruso. The partnership kicks off with a multi-day charity flash sale benefiting Special Olympics, which announced Pratt as a global ambassador earlier this year. Travis Mathew has committed to a minimum of $1 million in donations to the charity.

“Our initial conversations with Chris were about partnering with him to give back, using our incredible brand following and his even larger following to raise awareness and ultimately generate the largest charitable donation in Travis Mathew history,” said Ryan Ellis, CEO of Travis Mathew. “While we have typically signed ambassadors in the sports world, Travis Mathew is equal part sports and lifestyle so Chris was a perfect fit. We view this as a home run partnership and are excited to collaborate together.”

“I am so excited to officially partner with Travis Mathew, a brand that I’ve been wearing on and off of the golf course for a long time,” added Pratt. “Travis Mathew is a brand that shares my mission of doing good and I am humbled that I can use this partnership as a vehicle to donate to the Special Olympics, an organization that’s near and dear to my heart.”
