Jordan Spieth

Here's an interesting story on how Jordan ended up as Under Armour's leading golf brand ambassador http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/dc-sports-bog/wp/2015/06/23/jordan-spieth-and-under-armour-a-former-redskins-defensive-linemans-golf-bet-pays-off/?tid=hpModule_a4df998e-86a7-11e2-9d71-f0feafdd1394&hpid=z11

Jordan Spieth’s path to Under Armour began exactly as you’d expect: when a former Redskins defensive lineman started covertly following the teenage phenom during a practice round at Congressional Country Club.

Spieth was then a freshman All-American at Texas, playing Tiger Woods’s 2012 Washington event as an amateur. And Ryan Kuehl — a star athlete at Whitman turned University of Virginia lineman turned NFL veteran turned Under Armour executive — already thought he might be a fit for the Baltimore apparel company, which was looking to make a major play in golf.






 
J.B. TexasEx is bringing it! Love it! 
Spieth is a Longhorn, but he belongs to the country now.  The USA, has fallen in love with him.  The world soon will when he kicks Rory's butt.

Buh-bye, Eldrick

Edited - thanks J.B.
