LOHLA SPORT, LPGA TOUR Player Maude LeBlanc Extend Partnership

261

LOHLA SPORT and Maude LeBlanc have extended their partnership for the LPGA TOUR player to exclusively wear the brand’s premium golf-lifestyle apparel in tournaments and off-course activities.

Registering four top 10 finishes on the 2022 circuit, LeBlanc finished fourth in driving distance and wowed galleries with blasts off the tee.  She joins a LOHLA SPORT Tour staff that includes global brand ambassador Annika Sorenstam.

LeBlanc is wearing coordinated tops, bottoms, skorts and outerwear from LOHLA SPORT’s current “Lavish Summer Locales” collection with capsules named after high-class, tropical destinations Ibiza, Amalfi, St. Tropez and Monaco.  She is also a huge fan of the brand’s The Very Mid-Short that carries the same silhouette as the extremely popular The Very Pant.

Born and raised outside Montreal, LeBlanc relishes LOHLA SPORT’s European designs with colorful and feminine Los Angeles flair weaved into all “classy-resort-sporty” styles.

“LOHLA SPORT gives me the proper feel, comfort and confidence to play my best,” says LeBlanc, 34, who was a former junior golf phenom in Canada and star at Purdue University.  “I’m 6’2” and it fits me well, doesn’t untuck during swings and allows me to get full power behind my drives without restriction.”

“Maude is the ultimate professional golfer and an incredibly kind human being,” says Lisa O’Hurley, Founder and CEO of LOHLA SPORT.  “She embodies our brand’s made-for-play mantra in blending fun with being the best version of yourself on and off the golf course.”

LeBlanc and O’Hurley were introduced by mutual friend Peter Jacobsen, winner of 18 professional tournaments worldwide, including seven on the PGA TOUR.

LOHLA SPORT’s comfortable-chic aesthetic is attracting a massive following as the company creates a “Golfleisure” movement akin to Lululemon and the “Athleisure” craze.  In sizes XXS to XXL, LOHLA SPORT cuts are flattering yet not overtly sexy, made of fine-quality fabrics sourced worldwide and optimize athletic movements.

More than 250 fine golf shops and women’s boutiques carry LOHLA SPORT.  Furthermore, ESPN, Forbes, Global Golf Post, Golf Digest, GOLF.com, Golfweek, NBC Sports and others praised the brand’s refreshing looks as well as designers O’Hurley and London-based Paul Rees formerly of Burberry and Aquascutum fame.
