Jamie Elson recently has signed a sponsorship and management deal with boutique golf events company Jenahura as he looks to continue his full playing rights in 2014.

The former Walker Cup and European Tour player will feature Jenahura’s logo on his shirt and golf bag for the remainder of the season. Additionally, Jenahura will manage Elson’s commercial deals and support and assist him in achieving his career goals.

Elson will become a brand ambassador for Jenahura, while assisting with the development of their new player management strategy. New investment has led Jenahura into player management and sponsorship, featuring Elson as their first sponsored player.

Martyn Norris, the Managing Director at Jenahura, is excited to bring Elson onto his team.

“Jamie is an extremely talented golfer, a very likeable individual and will be an exceptional ambassador for Jenahura,” Norris said. “With our support and determination, there is absolutely no reason why he can’t compete at the very highest level.”

Elson said that he is very happy to complete this deal at an exciting time of his life. “I am delighted to agree a deal with Jenahura,” Elson said. “Everything they do is first class, delivered and managed exceptionally well. Jenahura’s contacts and support network is exactly what I need and at just the right time.”

“It has been an incredible few weeks for me,” Elson said. “My game is showing signs of some real form, Jenahura have shown a lot of faith in me and my wife Hannah and I are expecting our second child in December!”

Jenahura, founded by former PGA Professonal Martyn Norris in 2004, is expanding from a sports marketing business to join the sector of player management. Jenahura focuses on providing first class botique golf events and hospitality in the UK, providing a range of luxury hospitality packages and events.

“This is a momentous day for Jenahura,” said Norris. “We recently appointed two non-executive directors to help us grow. Jamie’s signature signals our intention to not only keep improving our outstanding events but also our commitment to invest in a small pool of elite golfers.”
