“The opportunity to partner with such a global and forward-thinking brand in DP World is an honour for me,” said Bring ahead of this week’s KLM Open. “I’m looking forward to representing DP World and have no doubt that this partnership will be fantastic. DP World’s focus on innovation in the game of golf and growing the game globally perfectly align with my own dreams and goals. I am looking forward to being part of the DP World family at this week’s KLM Open.”
The new partnership, that will see Bring wear the DP World logo on his right sleeve, will provide DP World with a new platform to communicate its global business operations, its commitment to enabling smart trade across the world and its focus on data driven logistics services, innovation, and education. Additionally, Bring will be support DP World’s mission of helping to grow the game of golf and supporting grassroots development, as well as creating opportunities for all abilities, to promote that golf is a game for everyone.
