Article Posted: 22nd May 2013

Telecom Capital today announced the sponsorship of Englishman and European Tour golfer, David Howell.

As part of the agreement, David will wear the Telecom Capital logo on his golf shirt, beginning at the BMW PGA Championship. He will also make personal appearances for his new sponsor.

Telecom Capital, the international Telecom financing specialists based in Mayfair, London, will be out in force to support David as he wears the corporate logo for the first time at Wentworth this Thursday.

"Being sponsored by Telecom Capital is fantastic," said David, who won the European Tour's flagship event in 2006 and has had a return to form in the past year that includes four top-ten finishes.

"I have known the team at Telecom Capital for a while and it is the kind of quality organisation that any professional athlete would be happy to partner with."

The 37-year-old believes the new sponsor can help him challenge for the title this week.

"I’ve been playing really well recently and over the last year have played my most consistent golf since 2006, when I won the BMW PGA Championship," he said. "I feel I’m due a bit of luck on a Sunday and there would be nowhere better to do it than at Wentworth this week."

Mark Edworthy, Managing Partner at Telecom Capital, said: "We’re delighted to sponsor David. Telecom Capital is all about providing capital to allow our clients to take advantage of the huge growth opportunities in the worldwide telecoms market.

"Hopefully, our sponsorship of David will give him an added boost here at Wentworth and in events around the world. His success in the game and on-going pursuit of excellence is a perfect fit with our own approach to business."
