Newrez’s partnership with Westmoreland signifies the company’s first sponsorship deal with a professional athlete. Westmoreland will proudly display the Newrez logo on the chest of their golf apparel while playing on the Korn Ferry Tour, although the partnership actually goes far beyond cross-promotion.

“We couldn’t be happier to be part of the Newrez team. Their dedication to serving both military and civilians fits perfectly with what we try to accomplish through the game of golf,” Westmoreland said. “Golf is great, but having a positive impact on the lives of others means so much more. Thank you, now let’s bring this partnership to the PGA TOUR!”

During his collegiate golf career at the U.S. Air Force Academy, Westmoreland won four varsity tournaments, earned full honors, and was named the 2014 U.S. Air Force Academy Male Athlete of the Year. To pursue his career as a professional golfer, Westmoreland completed his five-year military service commitment.

After passing through the Korn Ferry Tour Qualifying School on his first try, he joins the Korn Ferry Tour full time in 2022.
