Scottie Scheffler’s ambassador role at Huntington National Bank

World number one Scottie Scheffler has signed an ambassador partnership with Huntington National Bank as part of the brand’s expansion into golf.

The leading name in the men’s game, Scheffler has a history of having Huntington first partnered with C. Malcolm Holland III and Veritex Community Bank, known as the Golf Bank of Texas, during its early golfing days.

Holland III is now part of Huntington and the new partnership with Scheffler is designed to help the brand grow in golf and expand its presence in the American’s home state of Texas.

Scheffler becomes the first professional golfer to partner with Huntington, which already has sponsorship deals in other sports, including NFL and college sports.

Scheffler is already a Nike athlete and plays a full bag of TaylorMade clubs as part of its sponsorship with the brand.
