    #PGATOUR! INTRODUCTION Bryan Ahearn couldn’t believe his good luck. His employer, ParFour Marketing, has relied on him to de- liver insightful and successful marketing strategies for key clients as the “Voice of the Millennial.” As the largest living generation, many brands and media companies knew that millennials, and the following generation, Gen Z, were critical to their success in the future. Now, Bryan was given an assignment to develop a media and marketing plan for the PGA TOUR for the upcoming season that would engage Mil- lennials with the organization’s social media, viewership, and events. Bryan had been a golfer since high school, and played on his college team. His vacations and business trips often included finding a new golf course wherever he traveled. However, he knew mere enthusi- asm for the sport would not satisfy the PGA TOUR. He knew that success for this client would center on delivering results on five key performance indicators (KPI’s): o Increase attendance of 18-34-year-old fans on-site (at tournaments) ▪ The amount of time spent on-site ▪ The amount of money spent on-site o Convert casual fans who watch majors and other sports into PGA TOUR tournament at- tendees o Provide excitement for fans looking for social and memorable experiences o Increase the number of Millennials who watch PGA TOUR events on various social media platforms o Increase the number of Millennial followers on PGA TOUR social media PGA TOUR Bryan first reviewed the scope of his client. He learned that the PGA TOUR is headquartered in Ponte Vedra, FL, USA, and is the main organizer of the professional golf tournaments played primarily by male golfers in the United States and North America.

  • Julian Suri Receives Second Sponsor Exemption for Waste Management Phoenix Open Presented by the Ak-Chin Indian Community
    NEWS wmphoenixopen.com Release Date: January 18, 2018 Media Contact: Ryan Woodcock [email protected], (480) 766-1221 JULIAN SURI RECEIVES SECOND SPONSOR EXEMPTION FOR WASTE MANAGEMENT PHOENIX OPEN PRESENTED BY THE AK-CHIN INDIAN COMMUNITY SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Tournament Chairman Carlos Sugich announced today that European Tour up- and-comer Julian Suri will receive the second sponsor exemption for the Waste Management Phoenix Open Presented by The Ak-Chin Indian Community, which is set to tee it up January 29 – February 4 at TPC Scottsdale. Suri, who turned professional in 2013 after an impressive career at Duke, played his way on to the Challenge Tour (European Tour’s version of the Web.com Tour) in 2016 after missing out on the European Tour by one shot at Qualifying School. He earned his first professional win on the Challenge Tour at the D+D Real Czech Challenge in May of 2017, and qualified for the 2017 Open Championship at Royal Birkdale, where he missed the cut in his first ever start in a Major Championship. Later that year he earned his first European Tour victory at the Made in Denmark, and played well enough in just a partial season to earn a spot in the DP World Tour Championship, where he finished T8 to end the season ranked 52nd on the European Tour’s Road to Dubai. Suri currently ranks 65th in the Official World Golf Ranking and is eighth on the Road to Dubai standings. “Through his young professional career Julian has shown he has the game and skills to make it on this level, and he’s already shown he can handle the big stage,” Sugich said.
