Foley Brings Decades of Tour-Level Coaching Experience to the Maxfli Brand

PITTSBURGH, March 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Maxfli®, a distinguished golf brand with a century-long legacy in performance and quality, announced a new golf ball partnership with world-renowned golf instructor, Sean Foley. Through the partnership, Foley will serve as an ambassador and spokesperson for the brand and exclusively play the Maxfli Tour X ball.

Foley, whose coaching resume includes some of the world’s best golfers, including Tiger Woods, Lydia Ko and Michael Kim, is known for his analytical and progressive approach to the game. His insights into ball performance and shot optimization align with the added benefits of the Maxfli Tour Series, a lineup engineered to deliver tour-caliber performance for golfers of all skill levels. Foley joins the Maxfli roster alongside PGA TOUR player, Ben Griffin, and 11-time LPGA Champion, Lexi Thompson.

“When the opportunity arose to join Maxfli, I knew it was something I wanted to be part of,” said Foley. “These balls offer incredible feel, spin control and consistency, and you are seeing this translate to pro-level results on Tour each weekend.”

The Maxfli Tour Series golf balls are designed for golfers seeking elite performance, with the 2025 line featuring increased mantle layer firmness to enhance distance and center of gravity technology to increase putting consistency, accuracy and ball roll visibility. Specifically, for the Maxfli Tour X ball, the updated model includes a new 336 Dimple Pattern for a more penetrating ball flight.

“Adding Sean to Team Maxfli is an incredible opportunity for us,” said Sara Scarlett, Maxfli Brand Manager. “We share the same goal that Sean has every time he works with a player – elevating their game and helping them perform their best, and we’re confident that they will do that with Maxfli Tour Series golf balls.”

The Maxfli Tour X ball, which is part of the Maxfli Tour Series and sold exclusively at DICK’S Sporting Goods and Golf Galaxy, joins a portfolio of top in-house golf brands, including Walter Hagen, Top Flite and Tommy Armour.
