Sam Burns Signs Ambassador Deal With PAYNTR Golf

PGA Tour winner and Ryder Cup star Sam Burns has signed on as a new official ambassador of footwear brand PAYNTR Golf.

The signing of Burns as an ambassador follows Min Woo Lee signing with PAYNTR, with the 2026 recruit pair joining Jason Day in the brand’s stable.

Burns will sport the PAYNTR Golf Moving Day collection on the course throughout the 2026 season as he adds the brand to a sponsorship deal with Callaway for a full bag setup.

The American has secured five PGA Tour victories, the first coming at the 2021 Valspar Championship before later that year winning the Sanderson Farms Championship.

In 2022, Burns defended his Valspar Championship title then claimed the Charles Schwab Challenge. His fifth and most recent win arrived in 2023 at the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play.
