adidas<\/a><\/strong> announced an equitable NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) network that would extend to over 50,000 student-athletes at Division 1 adidas partnered schools a few months ago and today the 3 Stripes have announced that they’ve signed the #1 Women’s amateur golfer Rose Zhang<\/strong> to a NIL deal, first for the brand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cadidas has been a major part of some of my biggest wins as an amateur, so this is an exciting moment for me,\u201d said Zhang. \u201cI\u2019m most comfortable wearing the 3-Stripes on the course and can’t wait for what\u2019s ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rose’s resume is extensive as she’s a two-time AJGA Player of the Year, winner of the U.S. Women’s Amateur in 2020 and the U.S. Girls’ Junior in 2021. Not to mention a roster spot on the Junior Solheim Cup in 2017 and 2019 as well as the Junior Ryder Cup in 2018, all of which were wins for the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is part of the next phase of adidas’ NIL program and will include individual student-athletes as brand ambassadors across all sports and disciplines. Rose will be featured in marketing and brand campaigns and promoting adidas golf apparel and footwear on the course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
