New Delhi: Gaganjeet Bhullar, the hottest young golfer in India, has snapped up another sponsor, this time for men’s wear. At a time when Indian sportsmen crave for sponsorship, Bhullar, winner of two Asian Tour titles since September 2009, was sponsored by Indian Terrain.
Bhullar will promote the brand in a partnership that starts with immediate effect and will last for a period of two years. As part of the association, Gaganjeet will wear Indian Terrain designed and made clothing for all tournaments to be held in the country.
“We could not desire a better partnership for our new golf wear, the Indian Terrain consumer is young, stylish and a go getter from the middle class India chasing their dream. This profile fits Gaganjeet perfectly,” says V.Rajagopal, chairman and managing director of Indian Terrain.
“Our fundamental desire is to present clothing lines that connect with our urban consumer,” he adds.
Bhullar, runner-up at SAIL Open, an Asian Tour event in India, will start his association with the same event next week as he attempts to add a third title to his kitty.
The sixth ranked player in Asia, also played the British Open last year in his maiden Major appearance.
“To me, wearing something that is both comfortable and stylish is indeed a bonus,” said Bhullar.
