Sunshine Tour

We drove golf in a new direction

OBJECTIVE

WHAT WE DID

As well as created a new identity that positioned the Tour in line with other national sports brands and adopted our countries sporting colours.

FINAL WORDS

“It is refreshing to see a sporting body in South Africa create a campaign that promotes their sport, profiles their players and helps drive viewers to our channel. The #greatnessbeginshere campaign has profiled the success of the tour and told the story of how it’s players manage to achieve success across the globe and at the highest level. We are proud to partner with the Tour to tell these stories and showcase their sport”
