Stacy Lewis re-signs with Mizuno Golf
American Golfer Stacy Lewis has extended her partnership with Mizuno Golf
Women's world number three Stacy Lewis has signed a multi-year contract extension with Japanese club manufacturer Mizuno Golf.
Mizuno has now extended the services of both the women's and men's world number threes, with Luke Donald also committing his future to the brand.
Lewis, who recorded four wins on the LPGA Tour in 2012, has employed Mizuno equipment since her freshman year at Arkansas University.
"Stacy has been an incredible ambassador and we are thrilled to see the relationship continue," said Dick Lyons, Vice President and General Manager, Golf Division for USA.
"Stacy's amazing story of overcoming Scoliosis as a teenager to winning Player of the Year in 2012 is a testament to her attitude and the embodiment of what Mizuno looks for in a brand ambassador."
Lewis used her Mizuno JPX irons and woods and Mizuno MP wedges to record 16 top-10 finishes last season, more than any other player.
"Since my Freshman year at Arkansas, Mizuno has been my equipment manufacturer of choice," said Lewis.
