The Belfry signs Danny Willett as tour ambassador

3.40pm 7th July 2022 - Sponsorship & Events

The Belfry Hotel & Resort has signed a sponsorship deal with former Masters Champion Danny Willett for him to act as a brand ambassador for the famous Warwickshire venue.  

Yorkshire-born Willet is an eight-time winner on the European and PGA Tours, and famously won his first major at Augusta at the 2016 Masters. He’s also hosted the Betfred British Masters on The Belfry’s award-winning Brabazon course for the last two years.  

Willett will be teeing it up at the 150th Open Championship at St Andrews next week, a venue where he will also defend his Alfred Dunhill Links Championship title in October this year.  

Speaking about the new partnership, Willett commented: “I’ve always loved playing at The Belfry and hosting the British Masters this year was a real highlight for me. I’m very excited to be associated with what is one of the world’s best-known and highly regarded golfing resort and I’m looking forward to the second half of the season, especially the 150th Open where I can’t wait to play in front of the home crowd.” 

Chris Eigelaar, Resort Director at The Belfry, said: “We’re delighted to have Danny on board to represent The Belfry. We’ve long been committed to supporting golf at every level and we’re excited be alongside Danny on his journey this year and beyond. We wish him the best of luck with his golfing season.”
