Deloitte Becomes Official USGA Partner In Three-Year Agreement

The USGA has signed its fifth corporate partner with a three-year deal through '18 with Deloitte. Financial terms of the deal were not available, but USGA partnership deals are seven-figure annual agreements. Deloitte becomes the USGA’s official professional services provider and joins American Express, Rolex, Lexus, and IBM as official USGA partners. Deloitte has done consulting work in the past for the USGA but the company will now have USGA rights in the deal, which also includes a media buy. The company also will help the USGA develop business growth strategies.

“The organization is vast in what they do so there are a number of ways they can help us,” said USGA Senior Managing Dir/Business Affairs Sarah Hirshland. “They bring perspective from other industries and non-profits. It is a fresh set of eyes.”
