Bunker Mentality golf clothing company signs European Tour pro

Bunker Mentality, the UK's most fashionable golf clothing company, today announces a new sponsorship arrangement with fast-rising English tour pro Paul Waring.

The 24 year old golfer, who represents Bromborough Golf Club on the Wirral, will wear Bunker Mentality clothing on the European Tour in 2009.

Waring won the English Amateur Championship in 2005, and last year finished in a tie for 19th in the 137th Open Championship at Royal Birkdale - guaranteeing him a start in this year's event at Turnberry.

The young pro recently attracted praise from one of the game's global stars. Phil Mickelson, speaking after he was paired with Waring in the final round of the 2008 Open Championship, said: "Paul Waring can become a force in European golf." Waring matched Mickelson's score on the day, in difficult conditions.

Robert Hart of Bunker Mentality said: "Paul is exactly the right pro to represent our brand on the European Tour this year. He looks good, and he has a great mentality, as he showed in his final round at Birkdale last year when he matched big Phil shot for shot. We're tipping him to have a superb 2009, and we're proud that he will be wearing Bunker Mentality all the way."

In more good news for Bunker Mentality, the brand is also celebrating recent deals with new distributors in both Japan and Canada.
