Callaway Joins the Mission to Elevate Women’s Golf: Exploring All About Its Partnership With the Annika WAPT

Many changes are being made in the golf world before the start of the upcoming season. The biggest change would be the potential merger of the PGA Tour and LIV Golf. While men’s golf is undergoing tumultuous changes, women’s golf is also entering a new phase. Annika Women’s All Pro Tour has announced a partnership with Callaway Golf.

In June 2023, Hall of Fame golfer Annika Sorenstam and WAPT announced an alliance, growing into the Annika Women’s All-Pro Tour. The new partnership with Callaway will enhance the dream of pros wanting to play on the LPGA Tour. But there is a catch with the new partnership.

In a recent press release, Annika WAPT announced a five-year umbrella partnership with Callaway Golf to provide athletes with support in many areas. In this partnership, the tour logo will feature the words Driven By Callaway. With Callaway’s support, the Race to Stage II program will provide support to the top ten players at the end of the season.

The top 5 players will receive advancement to Stage II and an entry fee scholarship. On the other hand, players 6 to 10 will have their Stage I entry fees paid. Furthermore, Callaway Golf will provide the latest tour model balls for the athletes to practice with each week on the range. Talking about the partnership with Annika Sorenstam, Bjoern Kreutzer, Sr. Manager of Sports Marketing at Callaway Golf said, “We are excited to work with the Annika Women’s All Pro Tour, their outstanding team, as well as Annika herself on this long-term partnership that provides more opportunities for women in the professional arena.”
