Scottish Golf Partners With Aberdeen Asset Management

On its first day as the new unified governing body for the sport in Scotland, Scottish Golf secured a major sponsorship deal with Aberdeen Asset Management as the organization unveiled its new look. The new body -- an amalgamation of the Scottish Golf Union and the Scottish Ladies' Golfing Association -- was launched on Thursday at St. Andrews. Aberdeen Asset Management's latest commitment highlights the improved commercial opportunities for Scottish Golf, with the global investment group continuing to back Scotland's leading amateur golfers through a new two-year agreement, with funding to support the national teams at men's, ladies, boys and girls level. The partnership between Scottish Golf and Aberdeen Asset Management will see the players wearing the sponsors' logo on their national apparel and bags through the end of '17 (Scottish Golf).
