Mizzen+Main Announced as the Official Apparel Partner of the 42nd Texas Joe Black Cup Matches
DALLAS, Texas - The Northern Texas PGA and Southern Texas PGA are excited to announce Mizzen+Main as the official apparel partner of the 42nd Texas Joe Black Cup Matches.
The Matches will be held at Maridoe Golf Club in Carrollton, Texas, from Monday, November 14 through Wednesday, November 16.
"Mizzen+Main is proud to sponsor the Texas Joe Black Cup Matches this November. As a Dallas-based brand, we're excited about this event happening in our own backyard and look forward to seeing some great competition between players who know the truth of the idiom, ‘Look good, play good.’ Every player's unique Mizzen+Main tournament clothing will cover the first half of that phrase, and we can't wait to watch them handle the rest," said Mizzen+Main President Ryan Kent.
The Texas Joe Black Cup Matches is an annual competition between the Northern Texas PGA and the Southern Texas PGA Sections. The event was started in 1981 to honor Joe Black, a Snyder, Texas, native who was completing his first year as President of The PGA of America that year.
“The NTPGA continually strives to elevate the prestige of the Texas Joe Black Cup Matches. Partnering with a premier apparel provider in Mizzen+Main, who also values the game of golf, will do just that,” said Mark Harrison, Executive Director / CEO of the Northern Texas PGA. “We know our professionals will be excited and proud to showcase Mizzen+Main during the Matches.”
“This is a great partnership addition to an already great event and we are very appreciative of the support Mizzen+Main is providing,” said Thomas Hutton, PGA Executive Director of the Southern Texas PGA.
The Ryder Cup-style format features 12 golf professionals from each Section competing in Four-Ball and Foursome Matches on the first day followed by Singles Matches on the final day.
The overall Matches record is currently 19-20-2 with the Southern Texas PGA having the advantage.

ABOUT MIZZEN+MAIN
Since 2012, Mizzen+Main has redefined the workplace wardrobe with clothes that feel like athletic wear and look like custom-tailored fits. Built on the belief that men deserve comfortable clothes that come with confidence, Mizzen+Main combines performance fabrics with modern silhouettes to create clothes that look great and feel even better.
Mizzen+Main dress shirts are made of lightweight, breathable, sweat-wicking, wrinkle-resistant, and active stretch material that can also be machine washed—making ironing and dry cleaning chores of the past. As a whole, Mizzen+Main has tapped into a movement of men, young and old, who are tired of sweat-stained and wrinkled dress shirts. And with tens of thousands of five-star reviews, that group is only growing.
Originally started as an online-only DTC brand, Mizzen+Main has now branched into the wholesale and retail markets with six stand-alone stores and over six hundred wholesale partners, including Nordstrom. As more and more people try on their first piece of Mizzen+Main —whether it’s a dress shirt, polo, pants, or a pullover—they’re creating a relationship with a brand that not only understands them but exists to make them (and their wardrobes) a little more comfortable.
Mizzen+Main believes that out of comfort comes confidence. And out of confidence comes a new way to walk into work, the weekend, and everywhere in between.
