PGA Tour rookie Karl Vilips on Tuesday was named the first brand ambassador for Sun Day Red, the clothing line launched by Tiger Woods.
Like Woods, Vilips traversed the path from child star to success at Stanford. Vilips, in fact, won the 2024 Pac-12 Conference championship and was named first-team All-Pac 12 as a junior and senior.
Now 23, Vilips is set to make his season debut in Sun Day Red apparel beginning this week at the Mexico Open.
'Karl's journey has been marked by success at every level he's played,' Woods said Tuesday in a news release. 'At Sun Day Red, we were drawn towards his relentless work ethic and pioneering spirit that embody what we stand for and look for in our athletes. With his impressive track record and determination, I have no doubt he will make a significant impact quickly on the PGA Tour and is one of the game's future stars.'
Vilips was named the 2024 Korn Ferry Tour Rookie of the Year after finishing 19th in the points list. He highlighted his year with a victory in the Utah Championship.
'It's a thrill to be a part of Sun Day Red, especially so early on as we start to grow the brand around the world,' Vilips said. 'Tiger Woods was my idol growing up, and knowing that he drives the insights and meticulousness behind Sun Day Red's apparel and footwear gives us a unique edge that no other company can match. I couldn't be more proud to be the brand's first official ambassador.'
