Stout has signed a multi-year sponsorship agreement with PGA Tour player Sam Ryder. Ryder will begin wearing the Stout logo this week.

"We are excited to have Sam as an ambassador for our firm," said Bob Gerardi, Chief Marketing Officer at Stout. "He embodies Stout's personality and is incredibly hardworking, poised, and relationship-driven. We are proud to have Sam represent our brand promise of Relentless Excellence."

Ryder finished second on the 2017 Web.com Tour Money List, securing his PGA Tour card for the 2017-2018 season. In his rookie season, he qualified for and played in the first round of the FedEx Cup playoffs and finished the year ranked 101st. In his second full year on the PGA Tour, he currently ranks 18th in the FedEx Cup standings with two top five finishes already this season. Ryder will wear the Stout logo on his left chest beginning with his appearance this week at the Sony Open in Hawaii.

"I am looking forward to building on our new partnership, both on and off the golf course," said Ryder. "Stout has built a stellar reputation, and I am proud to be associated with them."
