The Epic Old Course Experience Celebrates Extension of Callaway and St Andrews Links Partnership

Callaway and St Andrews Links Trust, have announced an extension to their long-standing partnership that showcases the history and prestige of the ‘Home of Golf’ with Callaway’s innovative, high-performance golf equipment.

The two iconic brands have worked together for more than a decade, with Callaway installing a state-of-the-art Performance Centre within the St Andrews Links Trust Golf Academy.

Callaway also supplies the very latest equipment for rental across the seven St Andrews Links Trust golf courses (with more than 7,000 visiting golfers each year) and Callaway Golf Balls to the Academy (5.8m are hit annually).

The St Andrews Links Junior Golf Association, which has inspired and developed more than 3,000 young golfers over the past 10 years, also benefits from Callaway’s ongoing support.

Callaway and St Andrews Links Trust are launching an amazing competition for a 2-ball to win The Epic Old Course Experience, a trip to the Home of Golf to fully appreciate the partnership between these iconic brands.

This very special prize coincides with St Andrews Links Trust’s ‘Old Tom 200’ celebrations marking 200 years since the birth of the golfing legend and four-time Open Champion, Old Tom Morris, who was born in the town and played a pivotal role in developing the game.

Neil Howie, President and Managing Director of Callaway Golf EMEA, commented: “The St Andrews Links name is known and respected around the world and stands for a commitment to quality, excellence and enjoyment of golf. Callaway shares these same values, which is why it is completely fitting, and an honour, to continue our longstanding Partnership.

As we also celebrate golf courses reopening across the UK, this seemed like a wonderful opportunity for us to offer up a once in a lifetime golf experience”.

Danny Campbell, Commercial Director St Andrews Links Trust, said: “We have been proud to partner with Callaway Golf for more than a decade and are delighted to celebrate our extension today. Renewing our Partnership is particularly satisfying as it demonstrates that we have not only delivered on our shared expectations but gone beyond them, which is always our ambition.

“Our Partnership is built on a commitment to golf’s value of integrity, collaboration and the pursuit of excellence. We will continue to work together to increase engagement and inclusion in golf, showcasing the many opportunities that lie ahead for our sport.
