The Group, a leader in manufacturing chemicals for flat glass processing, announces its continued sponsorship of golf champion Marco Crespi for the current European Tour.
The Fenzi brand will continue to walk alongside Marco Crespi as he competes in the top international tournaments. A golfer known around the world and in his second year on the European Tour, Crespi sparked a lot of attention in 2014 for his victory as a rookie in the NH Collection Open on the La Reserva de Sotogrande Club de Golf course in Spain.
The calendar is densely packed with appointments and the champion from Monza, not far from the Headquarters of the Fenzi Group, is firmly committed to repeating the same results as last year because, as he admits, the playing standards are very high and the pace is rapid: “I’m giving it all I’ve got. This is a huge undertaking and it requires the utmost focus; it is a test of strength, above all because it means being away from home for long periods of time, but to travel the world playing golf has always been my dream”.
Among the most meaningful stages of the tour will be the Open d’Italia 2015 that will play out on the greens of Golf Club Milano in Monza, September 24 to 27. It runs concurrent with the Universal EXPO in nearby Milan, and the possibility of facing the best players in the world “at home” makes this an especially significant date for Marco Crespi.
Italian golf is experiencing a moment of brilliance with seven players engaged on the European circuit: “To be part of this group is an honor and having reached this level is a dream come true – continues Marco Crespi – Gearing up for a year on the European Tour is hard work and the support of a company like Fenzi is indispensable to making it happen. I am extremely grateful to Fabio Fenzi for this opportunity and it is a privilege to represent, around the world, in my own small way, a name like Fenzi, which is a global presence”.
Once again, the Fenzi Group puts its stamp on Made-in-Italy excellence, even in the field of sports, a view shared by Fabio Fenzi, Director of the Fenzi Group’s Ceramic Paints Division: “The common bond with Marco Crespi is not only a friendship that grew out of a love of golf, but also a set of shared values, like perseverance and always working to improve one’s performance. To us, this partnership between the Fenzi brand and Marco Crespi seems like an excellent paradigm of the Group’s values.”
