WWT Forms Strategic Alliance with Golfer Keith Mitchell

World Wide Technology (WWT), a prominent global provider of technology solutions, has unveiled a new strategic alliance with PGA TOUR golfer Keith Mitchell. This partnership represents a significant milestone for both WWT and Mitchell, who gained recognition with his impressive victory at the 2019 Honda Classic. As part of this collaboration, Mitchell will proudly display the WWT logo on his apparel during PGA TOUR events, beginning with the Farmers Insurance Open in San Diego.

Matt Horner, Executive Vice President at WWT, expressed his excitement about the partnership, noting, "Keith’s approach on the course mirrors our company’s culture of innovation, determination, and precision in achieving success. We are impressed by his progress, passion, and dedication, and he serves as an excellent role model for aspiring golfers. We are eager to collaborate with Keith while engaging our clients and partners through the opportunities presented by the PGA TOUR and the sport of golf."

Under the terms of the multi-year agreement, Mitchell will participate in WWT’s client and partner events, contribute to marketing initiatives, and serve as a brand ambassador. This partnership provides WWT clients and partners with exclusive access to PGA TOUR events featuring Mitchell, including his participation in the World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba in November.

Mitchell expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, "I am honored to partner with World Wide Technology and embody the brand values we share. I admire the company’s commitment to innovation and creating a brighter future for all. As a relatively new member of the PGA TOUR community, I aim to make a significant impact on the future of the golf industry, and the support from World Wide Technology will be instrumental in helping me achieve that goal."

Mitchell's career on the PGA TOUR began when he secured his card in 2016. His dedication and perseverance culminated in a victory at the Honda Classic in 2019, where he edged out notable golfers Brooks Koepka and Rickie Fowler by a single stroke, thanks to a crucial 15-foot birdie putt on the final hole.
