The Ryder Cup is approaching and many anticipate that the ‘Battle of Bethpage’ later this month in New York will be a classic. Celebrating this showpiece, Under Armour has launched its new ‘Warning Golf Collection’, which is a nod towards the fierce challenge of the host course.
Situated in Long Island and in close proximity to New York City, Bethpage has become an iconic setting for golf with a total of five courses making up one of America’s most famous municipal venues. At the venue’s heart lies Bethpage’s premier layout that has hosted numerous top-level tournaments as well as three major championships.
The course stretches to well over 7,400 yards, and is defined by pinched-tight fairways that are lined with penal rough, while a number of plateaued greens – protected by some of the deepest sand traps players will encounter – serve to punish any wayward play from the fairways. Indeed, the Bethpage course is so tough it has its own ‘Warning Sign’ at the first tee, throwing caution to those who dare take on the challenge.
To honour the test that awaits many of the world’s best players later this month, Under Armour’s very own ‘Warning’ collection will be available at select retailers.
Key pieces in the line-up include the Playoff Warning Polo, available in Midnight Navy and White/Gray, alongside the UA Icon Warning Hoodie in Midnight Navy and Royal Blue. The collection also features the versatile Drive Pro Hybrid midlayer, offered in both Royal Blue and Midnight Navy, while the accessories are headlined by the Drive 5 Panel Cap in Midnight Navy.
Richard Palmer-Jones from Under Armour Golf said: “The test that lies ahead for many of the world’s best players in New York will form the heartbeat of what is going to be a truly memorable event at Bethpage.
“Any golf course that comes with its own ‘Warning’ should be taken very seriously and we felt it was a great way to pay our own respects by launching this exciting apparel line-up.
“Under Armour’s ‘Warning’ collection offers a bright and refreshing look that will appeal to many golfers who are looking to stand out on the course with a nod to one of the most famous team sport events.”
