2022 YEAR IN REVIEW

Wednesday, December 21, 2022

What a year 2022 has been for Hambric Sports, both on and off the golf course.

Victories and success stories for our clients across so many tours: the PGA Tour, LIV Golf, DP World Tour, Korn Ferry Tour, Challenge Tour, PGA Tour Champions, Alps Tour, Nordic Golf League – you name it and our clients were showing off their incredible talents.

Off the course, there was the excitement of relaunching our Ladies Division, as well as announcing many partnerships with equipment companies, apparel brands and global corporations.

We would like to thank our clients for continuing to make us proud. It is such an honor for us to represent you and we can’t wait to see what the future holds.

To their sponsors, thank you for the unwavering support which is very special to us.

From all of the team at Hambric Sports, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year. See you in 2023!
