Adidas has signed American golfer Rose Zhang to a multi-year contract. The most decorated athlete in the history of amateur women’s golf will wear apparel, footwear and accessories from the German brand as she begins her professional career on the course.
Zhang’s accolades as an amateur are second to none. In addition to winning every major amateur championship for women – U.S. Girls’ Junior (2021), U.S. Women’s Amateur (2020) and Augusta National Women’s Amateur (2023) – Zhang capped her sophomore season by becoming the first woman ever to win two straight NCAA individual championships. Last May, Zhang became the first female student-athlete to sign a name, image and likeness contract with Adidas.
As 20-year-old Zhang finishes her amateur career, her historic run of 141 weeks atop the Women’s Amateur Golf Rankings is a record that may never be broken.
Zhang joins a lineup of Adidas athletes that includes several Major champions and athletes in the top 25 of the World Men’s and Women’s Rankings, including Jin Young Ko (World No. 1), Minjee Lee (World No. 5), Nasa Hataoka (World No. 14), Linn Grant (World No. 22), Xander Schauffele (World No. 5), Collin Morikawa (World No. 17) and Tyrrell Hatton (World No. 18).
Zhang will make her professional debut this week at the Mizuho Americas Open.
