SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – July 25, 2023 – Today, Blue Yonder, the leader in digital supply chain transformations, and Jon Rahm, one of the world’s top-ranked golf super stars, announce a new multiyear extension of their partnership. Rahm, who spent 52 weeks as the global top-ranked golfer in the world, has secured 11 wins during his tenure as Blue Yonder’s ambassador and amassed 19 career wins, including two major championships (2021 U.S. Open and 2023 The Masters) and three recent tournament wins in just over a month earlier this year.

“We’re thrilled to continue the partnership with the two-time major champion,” said Duncan Angove, CEO, Blue Yonder. “Jon’s dominance on the course and his relentless spirit to win aligns perfectly with Blue Yonder’s goal to take global supply chains to the next level.
