Mitsubishi sponsors golfer Jiménez

USA: Mitsubishi Electric has announced its sponsorship of top Spanish golfer Miguel Ángel Jiménez.

As part of the agreement, Jiménez, currently the 39th ranked player in the world, will wear the Mitsubishi Electric corporate logo on his golf shirt. He’ll wear the logo for the first time in the United States at the 2015 Mitsubishi Electric Championship at Hualalai, Hawaii, at the end of this month. Mitsubishi Electric US Inc, a sponsor of the PGA Tour and Champions Tour since 2007, is title sponsor of this annual, season-opening Champions Tour event.

“Miguel Ángel Jiménez embodies our goal to always strive to achieve something better as we continue to innovate and grow,” noted Mitsubishi Electric US president and CEO, Kiyoshi Furukawa.

“We very much look forward to having one of the most distinguishable players around the world represent our brand globally, but particularly at next years Nordea Masters (Sweden) and the BMW PGA Championship (UK), two events we partnered with for the first time last year, added Mitsubishi Electric Europe BV president and CEO, Kei Uruma.
