The Greg Norman Collection solidified its commitment to the company's growing women's business at the weekend when it announced that it had signed an endorsement agreement with Spanish golfer of the future, Belen Mozo.
Born and raised in Cadiz, Spain, Mozo will be entering pro golf with a long list of amateur highlights that include winning the Ladies British and Girls'Amateur Championships, also as winning the NCAA (team) Championship, the European Ladies Amateur Championship, and the Junior International Championship of Spain title. She has in addition played in successful teams at the Junior Solheim and Junior Ryder Cup competitions.
Mozo earned her 2011 LPGA playing privileges by finishing 8th at the LPGA Qualifying School and her Ladies European Tour playing privileges by finishing 3rd at the recent LET Qualifying School.
"We are excited to welcome Belen to the Greg Norman Collection family and await having her speak for the sponsor all over the world in 2011," said Michael J. Setola, CEO/President of the Greg Norman Collection.
Belen will wear the Company's GN Women's Collection during match and be featured prominently in upcoming advertising and marketing campaigns.
Belen plans to launch her 2011 fresh season at the Handa Women's Australian Open.
Here's what Norman, a former Worldn No 1, and Beth Ann Baldry of Golfweek have had to say about Mozo.
Look at what they're saying about Belen:
Norman: "She has what it takes on the course, and she has what it takes off the course. It's hard to generate a more marketable person in this [2010] Q-School field than Mozo.... The 22-year-old Spaniard is as personable as they come, attractive, bubbly and gifted."
Beth Ann Baldry, Golfweek: "She's just what ladies golf needs, a refreshing mixture of talent, character and beauty. Our sponsors absolutely loved her."
