Today Callaway Golf officially announced a formal partnership with global music and entertainment superstar, Niall Horan. Through this partnership, the singer-songwriter will collaborate with Callaway to celebrate their shared passion for the game, while also connecting with a wider, younger audience.

In addition to being one of the most prolific musicians in the world, with number one albums, singles and millions of fans to his credit, Horan is an avid golfer who is involved in prominent golf initiatives. He formed Modest Golf, a golf management company that represents professional players, in 2016. Since 2021, Modest Golf has worked with the R&A to design and develop a series of grassroots programmes. Horan has also competed in numerous Pro-Am events, including at the BMW PGA Championship, the DP World Tour’s flagship event.
