Keegan Bradley Wins The Bridgestone Invitational Wearing Tommy Hilfiger Golf

NEW YORK, Aug. 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Tommy Hilfiger Group, which is wholly owned by PVH Corp. (NYSE: PVH), proudly congratulates Keegan Bradley on his dramatic, come from behind victory at the World Golf Championships - Bridgestone Invitational Classic at Firestone Country Club in Akron, Ohio.  In early 2012, Tommy Hilfiger announced Keegan Bradley as global ambassador for the Tommy Hilfiger Golf men's collection through 2014. Commencing January 2012, Bradley has been representing the brand at major tournaments in select pieces from the men's golf collection.   Tommy Hilfiger Golf was re-launched in North America in 2011 in a licensing deal with Fletcher Leisure Group.

"We are very proud of Keegan's performance, and to have him as an ambassador for the Tommy Hilfiger Golf men's collection", said Mark Fletcher, president of Fletcher Leisure Group.  "The field was very competitive and he demonstrated his ability to compete with the very best golfers; he is part of the elite."
