ECCO GOLF ambassador, Thomas Bjørn, delivered an impressive performance at the Stifel Charity Classic for his first individual victory on the PGA TOUR Champions.

Bjørn, wearing ECCO GOLF LT1, shot a final round four-under-par 67 to get into a playoff – where he would triumph on the first sudden death hole.

His victory this week at Norwood Hills Country Club marks his second title of 2025, after winning the American Family Insurance Championship back in June.

Commenting on his second victory of 2025, Bjørn said: “I played so well this year, I got close in a few of the majors and I think when you’re in those senior major championships where you’re going up against some really strong guys that eventually you’re going to get over the line, eventually something’s going to go your way.”

Timo Vollrath, Head of Global Marketing at ECCO GOLF, commented on Bjørn’s latest triumph: “Thomas has been a stalwart of ECCO GOLF for many years, and we’re delighted to see him thriving on the PGA TOUR Champions.

“It’s a privilege to work with Thomas, and he is a fantastic ambassador for ECCO GOLF shoes. We look forward to continuing to support him going forward!” he added.

In addition to Thomas Bjørn, ECCO GOLF shoes are worn in competition around the world by Lydia Ko, Thorbjørn Olesen, Alison Lee, Erik van Rooyen, Henrik Stenson, Freddy Schott, Janet Lin, Rick Shiels and Erik Anders Lang among others.

ECCO GOLF has announced the addition of PGA TOUR star Aaron Rai to its elite tour ambassador lineup. A consistent performer on the global stage and a familiar face within the ECCO GOLF community, Rai joins the brand’s roster of ambassadors as one of the most exciting English talents in the game today.

Currently ranked inside the top 30 in the Official World Golf Ranking, Rai has established himself as one of the most accurate and composed players on the PGA TOUR, with a breakout triumph at the Wyndham Championship in 2024. A three-time DP World Tour winner – with victories at the 2018 Honma Hong Kong Open, the 2020 Aberdeen Standard Investments Scottish Open, and the 2025 Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship – he has also transitioned seamlessly to the U.S. circuit, where his steady rise and professionalism have earned widespread respect among fans and fellow players.

Rai’s relationship with ECCO GOLF is longstanding, and he has been wearing ECCO GOLF shoes by choice for many years, including throughout his recent run of form on the PGA TOUR. His belief in the brand’s craftsmanship, comfort, and performance innovation makes this official partnership a natural next step in an already strong connection.

“I’m thrilled to officially become an ECCO GOLF ambassador,” said Rai. “I’ve worn ECCO shoes for a long time, because they’ve always given me the perfect combination of performance and comfort. I’ve long admired the brand’s dedication to quality and innovation, and it feels fantastic to make our partnership official. ECCO represents everything I value – attention to detail, comfort, and build quality – and I’m proud to now be representing the brand on tour.”

Rai joins a diverse and world-class group of ECCO GOLF ambassadors, including Thorbjørn Olesen, Aaron Rai, Thomas Bjørn, Erik van Rooyen, Lydia Ko, Lin Xiyu, and Freddy Schott, among others.
