Fritsch teams with beloved Sens; will sport logo while on PGA Tour
BRAD FRITSCH of Canada finally made it to the PGA Tour, and he's bringing his favourite NHL team with him.
The Ottawa Senators have announced a partnership with the 34-year-old Fritsch, who earned his card by finishing 18th on the Web.com Tour money list.
The Senators will provide financial support, and Fritsch will wear their logo on his shirt and golf bag.
"I am overjoyed to partner with and represent the NHL team that I've grown up with the last 20 years," Fritsch said. "It is an honour and a pleasure to be associated with the Senators and my hope is that this is a partnership that will last for many, many years."
Fritsch starts his season in January, and he can only hope the NHL is playing by then.
DIVOTS: Rory McIlroy and Sergio Garcia are the only players from Europe's winning Ryder Cup team who are not playing in the HSBC Champions.
The U.S. team is missing Tiger Woods, Steve Stricker, Matt Kuchar, Zach Johnson, Webb Simpson and Jim Furyk.
