Jordan Spieth set to bring the heat
For the last major of the season
Words: GolfPunk
Under Armour scripting has Jordan Spieth prepared to battle the elements at Bellerive.
With three Majors down in 2018, the world’s best golfers have one more chance to build on their legacies and win one of the highly coveted championships.
For Jordan Spieth, winning the PGA Championship at Bellerive Country Club wouldn’t just be another Major victory; he’d become only the sixth golfer ever to complete the Career Grand Slam, having already captured the Masters (2015), the U.S. Open (2015) and the Open Championship (2017).
To beat the aggressive Missouri heat and humidity that plagues Bellerive this time of year, Jordan needs Under Armour’s finest lightweight, breathable, sweat-wicking apparel – Under Armour Threadborne.
UA Threadborne Microthread technology in the fabric dries faster, won’t cling or chafe, and stretches without absorbing sweat thanks to 4-way stretch construction that moves better in every direction.
The knit jacquard texture on the front delivers added breathability, while the material’s 30+ UPF protects skin from the sun's harmful rays.
According to Jordan Spieth: “Heat and humid will play a big factor, especially this year. I’m looking for my (Under Armour) technology that have on to be an advantage….my technology allows me to be freed up so the way that I feel when I put on my clothing in the morning is the same way I feel when I come back in the evening.”
To help Jordan perform at the highest level as he battles the elements and the competition at Bellerive, throughout the tournament he will be wearing the waterproof and super-durable Spieth 2 footwear, ultra-breathable UA Threadborne polos with +30 UPF protection, UA Showdown pants and the UA Playoff Polo.
