Cutter & Buck’s Jake Rawson said the company will work on the team’s uniform design in collaboration with Annika Sorenstam, legendary golfer and longtime Cutter & Buck brand ambassador, who is the 2017 European team captain.

“We are extremely honored to be working with Annika to outfit the European Solheim Cup team in the ANNIKA Collection,” said Rawson, Cutter & Buck Global Director of Sales—Golf. “She has had a strong voice throughout the design process and each piece from the Collection will combine incredible functionality along with stylish details.”

In 2004, Cutter & Buck launched the ANNIKA Collection, a popular performance apparel line that offers three new deliveries each season. Sorenstam lends inspiration to designs that emphasize style and playability.

“The Solheim Cup has always been one of my favorite events,” said Sorenstam. “The passion and camaraderie that takes place that week is fantastic. As the 2017 Captain, it’s a tremendous honor to have Team Europe wear my collection.”

The European team will wear brightly hued uniforms in the Ladies European Team colors of blue and yellow.
