Starter, the iconic sports apparel brand known for its authentic connection to athletic heritage, extended its collaboration with the 2025 Original Tee Golf Classic. This reinforces the brand’s dedication to promoting diversity and honoring golf’s trailblazers.

The Starer x 2025 Original Tee Golf Classic was held at Crystal Springs Resort in New Jersey. The event brought together major sponsors like Delta Air Lines, the NBA, and Yeti to facilitate a celebration of both the sport’s history and its modern cultural ambassadors. This year’s tournament recognized LaRee Pearl Sugg, a pioneering figure in women’s golf and the third African American player on the LPGA Tour, with the True Original Award — a fitting tribute to her groundbreaking career and ongoing influence in athletics.

Starter’s involvement underscored its commitment to authenticity and cultural impact.
