Fresh of his seventh PGA tour victory, Jordan Spieth has hit the marketing Powerball with a massive endorsement deal with Coca-Cola. According to Darren Rovelle of ESPN, Spieth‘s new deal places him in the same territory of Lebron James and Taylor Swift.
The amount of the deal was not disclosed, but given the fact that Lebron recently signed a one billion dollar contract with Nike, it’s likely that Spieth’s new deal is significant.
Spieth released the following statement:
“It’s a special brand with a rich history, and I couldn’t be more excited to be a part of that history,”
Stuart Kronauge of Coca-Cola commented as well:
“As a company, what we admire most about Jordan is the way he has embraced being a role model. His actions, values and character both on and off the course make him an ideal Coca-Cola brand ambassador.”
It’s good to be Jordan Spieth.
