Skechers congratulates golf legend Colin Montgomerie on being awarded the CPG Lifetime Achievement Award 2020 – which recognizes the greats within European Golf and beyond.

As one of his generation’s most recognizable and endearing athletes, Colin Montgomerie is a true statesman of golf.  Monty, as he is affectionately known, is one of Britain’s most admired sportsmen having held centre stage in numerous tournament victories with career highlights that include being a two-time Senior Major winner, eight-time European Order of Merit winner, and winning European Ryder Cup team captain in 2010.

 

“It’s a much-deserved acknowledgement for Colin Montgomerie,” said Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers.“ A true legend, Colin’s impressive accolades continue to make him an inspiration to fans around the globe and a perfect example of how Skechers GO GOLF delivers the comfort and total performance to elevate your play on any course.”

Colin’s accomplishments stretch further than individual golf, as he is regarded as one of the greatest Ryder Cup players in the history of the biennial event. With eight appearances representing Team Europe, he has never lost a singles match and holds an exemplary match record of 20-9-7 across his Ryder Cup career.

Montgomerie who joined the Skechers Performance team in 2015, wears Skechers GO Golf Elite 4 and Skechers branded apparel on tour and has been featured in ongoing marketing campaigns for the brand. Additional pros wearing Skechers GO GOLF on tour include Matt Kuchar, Brooke Henderson and Billy Andrade.
