Professional Golfer Taisei Shimizu Appointed Ambassador for Hankyu Travel's 'Super Golf Pack'; Exclusive Golf Competition Tour to be Held in December 2026

In May 2026, Hankyu Travel Co., Ltd. announced an ambassador contract with professional golfer Taisei Shimizu. Moving forward, he will serve as the official ambassador for the company's dedicated golf package tour, 'Super Golf Pack,' promoting the appeal of golf to a wide range of generations. 'Super Golf Pack' is a travel service dedicated to golfers, offering sets of play at golf courses nationwide bundled with round-trip transportation (such as airfare or JR tickets) and accommodation. It has been highly supported by many golfers for its convenience, eliminating the hassle of individual arrangements. The company offers highly satisfying travel products, including stays in hot spring areas and play in the magnificent nature of Hokkaido. This contract was realized due to deep empathy for Shimizu's high performance as a top young professional and his constant pursuit of challenging himself to reach greater heights. The company is committed to supporting his further success. Hankyu Travel plans to feature Shimizu in various media, including 'Super Golf Pack' brochures. To commemorate the ambassadorship, an exclusive 'Golf Competition Tour' featuring Shimizu will be held for two days and one night starting December 18, 2026 (Friday) at the Shizuoka Country Hamaoka Course. This provides a rare opportunity to experience a top professional's techniques up close. Sales for the tour will commence on May 26, 2026 (Tuesday) at 6:00 PM.
