BRIDGESTONE GOLF AND ST ANDRE ANNOUNCE EXCITING PARTNERSHIP

COVINGTON, Ga. - Bridgestone Golf, the #1 Ball-Fitter in Golf, today announced a partnership with the content creators at St. André Golf (@StAndreGolf).

The partnership between Bridgestone Golf and St André Golf will focus on producing unique and entertaining video content, including cameos from Bridgestone Golf professional staff players including Tiger Woods, Jason Day, Fred Couples, Lexi Thompson, and Matt Kuchar.

“Well first off, these guys are just downright funny,” said Dan Murphy, Bridgestone Golf President. “We fully expect that they will help us entertain and better connect with Bridgestone followers. Sure they are comedians, but they are also true blue golfers and can relate to our audience.”

Watching entertaining and educational digital content plays a significant role in most golfers lives these days and our relationship with St. André will contribute significantly to Bridgestone’s presence in the space.”

St. André is an Atlanta based sketch comedy group comprised of golf-loving comedians and actors lampooning every corner of the golf world. Since launching, St. André’s brand of well produced, short form sketch comedy has cemented them as leading content creators in the space. Whether it’s a music video about desperately needing a hot dog at the turn or a tense standoff between a way-too-intense marshal and a beer-smuggling golfer, no topic is safe from St. André’s crosshairs.

“I’ve played Bridgestone balls for years, so having the opportunity to work with the good folks at Bridgestone and their roster of incredible Tour players, including the best of all time, absolutely rules,” said Aaron Chewning, co-founder of St. André Golf. “Bridgestone trusted us to make content with Tiger Woods, which was truly surreal. Not really sure where we go from here. We’ve shot with Tiger… now what? We’re supposed to just go shoot content with some rando named Tyler? We are fully ruined but also couldn’t be more excited for what lies ahead with Team Bridgestone!”

St. André’s content can be found on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook, as well as YouTube. Look for their videos incorporating Bridgestone’s Tour Team starting today.
