Adidas Golf Signs Top Ranked Amateur Joaquin Niemann

A multi-year contract that sees him in adidas headwear, apparel, and footwear on the course

Hailing from Santiago, Chile, Niemann enters the professional ranks following a successful amateur career and becomes just the second 19 year old to sign with adidas Golf behind Sergio Garcia who signed with adidas in 1999.

Niemann won the 2015 IMG Junior World Championship at the famed South Course at Torrey Pines Golf Course and then defended his title the following year, lapping the field with the next closest competitor eight strokes behind. He’s also a former Rolex Junior All-American as part of the American Junior Golf Association (AJGA), where adidas Golf is a National Sponsor, adding three consecutive victories in AJGA events last year alone. He also competed in the 2017 Greenbrier Classic on the PGA TOUR where he made the cut as an amateur and finished tied 29th.
