Nick Dunlap's Journey to Augusta
With the year's first major golf championship taking place this week, adidas is turning the spotlight on the remarkable journey of professional golfer Nick Dunlap. His achievements have paved the way for a historic appearance in Augusta.
Releasing "History’s New Name"
Today, adidas launched a mini-documentary titled “History’s New Name,” which delves into the mindset and approach of the young phenom. The documentary specifically focuses on how Dunlap managed pressure during critical moments in the final round of The American Express, achieving a feat unseen in 33 years by winning a professional tournament as an amateur.
Exclusive Insights and Interviews
The content features Nick’s commentary, alongside exclusive interviews and insights from those who were present during this transformative event: Jim and Charlene Dunlap (parents), Dr. Bhrett McCabe (clinical and sports psychologist), and Hunter Hamrick (caddie). Additionally, adidas interviewed Golf Channel reporter Brentley Romine, who has extensively covered Dunlap’s outstanding junior and amateur career.

This unique feature ties into adidas’ brand campaign released earlier this year, which highlights how athletes handle and manage expectations. The campaign is based on the insight that pressure is causing next-gen athletes to leave sports. adidas aims to normalize these feelings to showcase the potential achievements when athletes find joy in sports.

In addition to outfitting Dunlap for his debut in Augusta, adidas will also support other athletes this week, including Ludvig Åberg, Collin Morikawa, Nick Taylor, and Nicolai Højgaard, among others.
