London,
10th September 2013 – English golfer Max Orrin has today announced that
he has signed a long term, exclusive representation contract with
4SPORTS & ENTERTAINMENT, the leading Swiss sports management agency.

from North Foreland Golf Club in Kent, has turned professional this
week following a remarkable career as an amateur. The 19 year old has

accumulated a number of high profile titles to his name during this
time.

2012 Max became the first English golfer to win the esteemed
Thunderbird Invitational held in Arizona. Combined with wins at the Kent
Amateur Championship and Jaques Leglise Trophy, as well as second place
finishes in the Darwin Salver, the Peter McEvoy Trophy and The Sir

Trophy. He reached the semi final match play rounds of both the British
Amateur as well as the English Amateur earlier in the year and was a

Championship where he posted a top ten finish on the stroke play leader
board before heading into the match play rounds.
Max
was selected as a member of the 10 man Walker Cup team who sought to
defend their title at the National Golf Links of America. Following the
conclusion of this event, and positioned as top of the 2013 Titleist
&Footjoy Order of Merit, Max decided to turn professional and
intends to play in a number of tournaments across Europe before heading
to European Tour Qualifying School later in the year.

signing with 4SPORTS, Max commented: 'Having made the decision to turn
professional, I am confident in my feeling that 4sports are the perfect
team to have working alongside me in the next stages of my career. I
also want to thank the England Golf Union who have supported me over the
past 4 years.'
Marcus
Day, Managing Director of the 4sports Golf Division added: 'Max has
already achieved a string of fantastic results in his career. We are
really looking forward to working with him in order to help him achieve
his next set of goals.'
