Pro golfer Justin Thomas has lost his Ralph Lauren partnership a week after saying a homophobic slur during last week’s Sentry Tournament of Champions.
The American golfer landed in hot water last weekend when he was heard saying the word “f****t” after missing the five-foot putt on hole four.
The fashion company recently released a statement revealing their decision to cut ties with the athlete, stating: We are disheartened by Mr.
Thomas’s recent language, which is entirely inconsistent with our values.” “While we acknowledge that he has apologized and recognizes the severity of his words, he is a paid ambassador of our brand and his actions conflict with the inclusive culture we strive to uphold.
