Harrington hits jackpot with lucrative new sponsorship deal

PÁDRAIG HARRINGTON yesterday signed a multi-euro, multi-year global partnership with FTI Consulting, a company describing itself as “the world leader in event driven consulting”.

And, a major aspect of the agreement will see the FTI branding displacing Wilson on the front of Padraig’s cap for the next number of years.

The 37-year-old Dubliner recently signed a three-year renewal of his golf club contract with Wilson Golf believed to be worth in the region of €10 million. At the time, though, Harrington’s manager Adrian Mitchell of IMG was aware of the pending deal with FTI.
