Jamie Donaldson signs with J.Lindeberg
Jamie Donaldson has signed an exclusive three-year clothing deal with Swedish fashion house J.Lindeberg.
The Welshman will showcase the brand's full range of golf wear at tournaments all over the world, starting at this week's Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship.
The 38-year-old recorded his first European Tour victory at the 2012 Irish Open and held off Justin Rose to claim last year's Abu Dhabi Championship.
Donaldson has a good chance of earning a place in Paul McGinley's European Ryder Cup team at Gleneagles this September.
"As a professional golfer it's essential I feel comfortable in my clothes," said Donaldson.
"What's more, the fabrics used in the J.Lindeberg range are technically advanced to ensure my body is at the ideal playing temperature and not hampered by changes in weather conditions.
