Jordan Spieth recently took home his 13th PGA Tour victory at the RBC Heritage at Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head, South Carolina.
The win paid off in more ways than one.
Spieth currently has a 10-year deal with Under Armour and following his victory, their partnership has been extended for another four years through 2029. In addition to the extended contract, Under Armour has also committed to donating more than $1 million over the next eight years to the Spieth Family Foundation.
Spieth’s foundation focuses on special needs youth, junior golf, military support and pediatric cancer. His foundation has provided scholarships, grants and opened up golf programs that help break down socioeconomic barriers.

“Under Armour took a chance on me,” Spieth told company founder Kevin Plank in 2020. “I was just leaving school, and I guess in other sports I would have been considered a high draft pick but at the same time I didn’t have PGA Tour status, which in golf means everything.”
