The Ottawa Senators and Ontario native LPGA star Brooke Henderson entered into a multi-year partnership on Wednesday.
Per the agreement, Henderson will wear Senators gear and team colors one day per tournament and use the team’s branding on her golf towels and water bottles. She also will participate in activities linked to the NHL team while in Ottawa.
“(It’s) a piece of home,” said Henderson, who is from Smiths Falls, Ontario. “I’m very proud to do it: Show everybody who I’m cheering for and where my love is. And also, I feel like, with the water bottle I’ll feel like one of the guys on the bench, so that’ll be pretty cool too.”
Henderson, 26, is a 13-time LPGA Tour winner — including victories at the 2016 Women’s PGA Championship and 2022 Evian Championship.
“I’m super excited to team up and partner with the Senators. It’s such a cool opportunity,” Henderson said. “Growing up, I played hockey, I loved hockey, and I always cheered for the Senators, so it feels like a perfect fit.
“Just being involved with an organization that has world class athletes who, every day, are pursuing their dreams and pushing themselves, I think it’s really neat to partner up with them, and I’m excited to see where it goes.”
