The popular PGA Tour professional officially extended his deal with Cobra Puma, and will continue to use their equipment and apparel, both of which have become almost synonymous with Fowler, for years to come.
Fowler initially signed on with Puma in 2009, while has been with Cobra since 2012. He’s been using their gear for over a decade and that’s not going to change in the near future. The two companies have since merged and are now one functioning entity.
While Rickie Fowler isn’t changing his primary gear and apparel supplier for 2025, he is adding a brand sponsor to the mix. Fowler reportedly came to an agreement with Ernst & Young to wear their logo on his chest for TGL matches every Tuesday for the next few weeks. He debuted it last week.
Rickie Fowler is replacing Grant Thornton, the sponsor of the annual Grant Thornton Invitational mixed event, with Ernst & Young moving forward.
Dan Ladd, the president of Cobra Puma Golf, said in a statement via Golfweek:
“We are thrilled to officially extend our relationship with Rickie and look forward to continuing our work with him for many years. Rickie is a special talent who brings a competitive spirit and style to the game that we absolutely love. We’re very excited to keep him in the fold and watch how his career continues to develop.”
Fowler also added his own statement, stating:
“The fact that they know what I look for in fashion and style gives me extra confidence on and off the course. While their products are incredible, I also truly value all the relationships I’ve built here throughout my career. Extending this partnership was a simple decision, and I’m excited to stay part of these amazing brands.”
Speaking on his decision to sign with Ernst & Young via Golfweek, Fowler said:
“They were in a position where they wanted to get back into the golf space a bit more. Lucky for me I happened to be in the right place at the right time and everything came together organically.”
