Golf Channel analyst Notah Begay III has signed on with PointsBet as a Global Golf Ambassador.
“It’s with great excitement and anticipation that I pursue this new venture in collaboration with PointsBet. I look forward to standing alongside a company that truly understands the unique and intrinsic values of golf but also recognizes the importance of community. Creating new opportunities and making an impact in the communities we serve will be the benchmark of our team,” said Begay in a statement.
Begay will serve as a link to PointsBet partners NBC Sports and GOLF Channel, and will provide essential support to PointsBet’s diversity initiatives and its work with tribal communities.
Begay will also become a PointsBet ambassador as the company works to further cement themselves as the preferred sportsbook of golf bettors.
“We at PointsBet are thrilled to partner with Notah and continue to build upon our expertise in the game of golf. Notah’s incredible knowledge of the game and his unique relationships across the country will serve our company and our customers, and ensure we are the premier sportsbook for golfers everywhere,” said Johnny Aitken, CEO of PointsBet USA. “This partnership also provides PointsBet with a genuine connection to NB3 Foundation and ensures we are playing an appropriate role in the communities in which we operate.”
The NB3 Foundation is changing the lives of Native American children by supporting and funding Indigenous-driven, culturally centered programs that establish a clear pathway for Native children to live healthy and active lives.
