Nike checks into Seaforth
Shaun Gregory
Huron Expositor
The first athlete to ever
reach ten -figures (billion
dollars) is most renowned
for sporting a swoosh on
practically everything he
owns. In the six years being
employed by Nike, Lindsey
told the Expositor on May 31
during a demo/fit day at the
Seaforth Golf & Country
Club that she has not yet had
the opportunity to meet the
golf superstar.
"I would love to meet Rory
or Tiger. Hopefully if I stay
here long enough and
remain with the company,
maybe that will happen,"
stated Lindsey Edmunds, the
Nike sales manager for all of
Southwestern Ontario.
A one -woman team,
Edmund travels across the
region not only in Seaforth
but in cities such as Windsor

Chatham and Sarnia but
may reach sometimes as far
as Owen Sound. Performing
three to four events a week,
from now until April of next
year, it's expected to be the
highest degree of labouring
time of the year for the
32 -year-old. As per usual,
she packs her SUV up almost
daily to showcase the newest
line of golf clubs from what's
believed to be the most valu-
able brand in all of sports.
According to Forbes, the ath-
letic marquee is currently
worth about $15 billion.
"Golf has been a part of
my life since I was little, so
it's nice to stay in the indus-
try as a professional career,"
Edmunds said after fitting
clubs for some locals. "I
absolutely love it"
"You get to make people
happy and also hit some nice
shots."
Being a former profes-
sional golfer, Edmunds is
accustomed to going on tour
in the U.S. as well as Canada.
The London Ont. native does
not hold the illustrious name
as a Woods or Mcllroy, how-
ever she does clench a title
only one other person in
Canada does.
"I'm one of the only female
reps in Canada, (actually) I am
the only female rep," she said.
It was a bright and sunny
day on the driving range of
Seaforth's only golf course.
Several locals came out
including Paul Doig and his
friend Teremoana Beau -
cousin, who was visiting from
Kennesaw State University but
originates from Tahiti, French
Polynesia. The classmates
were on hand crushing balls
300 -plus yards with the new-
est Nike Clubs. After the dem-
onstration the duo decided to
sharpen their game on the
course. Edmunds said that is
something she is interested in
being a part of in the near
future.
"This is my first time doing
a fit day in Seaforth. I've been
here a couple of times. I have
not played the golf course.
Next time I come up, that's
high on the list," she said.
