Braselton, GA – The American Junior Golf Association is excited to launch the Mizuno Minute social platform today on TikTok and Instagram Reels as part of Mizuno's Official Partnership with the AJGA.
The platform will focus on minute long stories around the AJGA including Mizuno events like the recent 'Mizuno Pro Experience' held at TPC Sugarloaf in Duluth, Georgia.
Founded in Osaka, Japan, in 1906, Mizuno has long held an enviable industry-wide reputation for crafting some of the finest golf equipment on the market and being at the forefront of technological innovation.
We are delighted to become an Official Partner of the AJGA. Earlier this year we appointed Lauren Smith as our new Player Development Rep as part of a plan to focus on identifying younger talent. This long-term agreement with AJGA demonstrates our commitment to support the next generation of aspiring male and female junior golfers.
Additionally, Mizuno will title sponsor multiple events on the AJGA schedule annually. While Mizuno-sponsored PGA TOUR Professionals and AJGA alumni Keith Mitchell and Greyson Sigg will headline two events by hosting their own tournaments for the first time in 2022.
Keith Mitchell, who has one PGA TOUR win under his belt (2019 Honda Classic), was a 2008 Rolex Junior All-American before heading off to the University of Georgia. The Tennessee native had three top-10 finishes in his three-year AJGA career.
Greyson Sigg, who recently graduated to the PGA TOUR, won twice on the Korn Ferry Tour during the 2020-2021 super season. His wins at the Visit Knoxville Open and the Albertsons Boise Open presented by Chevron earned him the No. 2 spot in the year-end Korn Ferry Tour points standings and his first PGA TOUR card. In his AJGA career, Sigg earned three top-10 finishes and played on the 2012 Wyndham Cup East team before heading to the University of Georgia.
Starting in February AJGA members will receive a 30% discount to shop the entire Mizuno product line via their Player Center on ajga.org.
