PING has signed two promising US collegiate golfers, Rachel Heck of Stanford University and Ollie Osborne from Southern Methodist University, to ‘name, image and likeness agreements’ ahead of the new season.
Heck, as a freshman, was the NCAA individual champion, the first woman in school history to accomplish the feat and is the no.3-ranked amateur in the world. She garnered numerous awards after her six-win freshman season, including the Annika Award as America’s top female collegiate golfer.
A junior at SMU, Osborne has won twice. Last year he competed at the Masters and US Open on the strength of his runner-up at the 2020 US Amateur. As a sophomore he made the AAC All-Conference Team, and was the Mustangs’ top finisher at the NCAA Championships.
