Johnnie Walker rewards hole-in-one achievers this spring by awarding a limited edition Blue Label Sunday Golf Bag in partnership with Devereux Golf
NEW YORK, NY April 10, 2025 - In 1926, Johnnie Walker Blended Scotch Whisky launched a 'hole-in-one' challenge, rewarding golfers who achieved the ultimate shot with a bottle of Scotch. Just as Johnnie Walker Blue Label is crafted from only 1 in 10,000 casks, a hole-in-one is a rare feat, with odds of 12,500 to 1. In anticipation of golf's most iconic tournament, the brand is reviving the tradition with their 'Blue-in-One' Challenge—a celebration of golf's most extraordinary moment. Golfers who sink an ace will be rewarded with an exclusive Johnnie Walker Blue Label-Inspired Sunday Golf Bag, customized with their name, the date and the course of their hole-in-one.
"At Johnnie Walker, we are proud of our century-long connection to the world of golf, and as the sport evolves, we remain committed to playing an active role in shaping its future - pushing, as we have done since the beginning, for progress," says Jesse Damashek, Senior Vice President of Whiskey Portfolio, Diageo North America. "With a growing focus on accessibility, fueled by new digital formats and energy-shifting tournaments, golf is becoming dynamic and widely embraced. Like our whisky, the return of the 'Blue-in-One' Challenge balances tradition with progress, celebrating one of the game's oldest and rarest achievements while inspiring a new wave of players to take part in energizing the sport."
Crafted in collaboration with Devereux Golf, the Johnnie Walker Blue Label-Inspired Sunday Golf Bag is a bold fusion of luxury, innovation, and craftsmanship. Designed for the next generation of golfers, it features deep Blue Label hues, refined gold accents, and premium materials - making it as stylish as it is functional. More than just a golf bag, it's a tribute to those who, like Johnnie Walker, keep swinging and Keep Walking forward. Now through May 31st, 2025, golfers aged 21 and older who score a hole-in-one on a Par 3 or digital course and submit proof of their achievement by going to https://www.johnniewalker.com/blue-in-one will receive one of these golf bags.
"Designing the Johnnie Walker Blue Label-Inspired Sunday Golf Bag was about merging sophistication with functionality, infused with our brands' shared spirit to make the sport more accessible and fun," says Bert Brunner, Devereux Golf Co-Founder. "We wanted to create something that not only honors the tradition of the game but also stands out with bold style and modern craftsmanship that Johnnie Walker Blue Label is celebrated for around the world."

ABOUT DEVEREUX GOLF
Devereux is a cultural golf brand founded in 2013 by brothers, Robert and Will Brunner, whose aim is to bring a fresh take to the stale world of golf. At Devereux, we love the game, respect the sport, and honor the traditions, but we welcome the next generation of golfers who are breaking stigmas and outdated standards. As golf culture evolves, and younger more diverse players engage in the game, Devereux is committed to offering apparel and accessories that cater to them- both from a style perspective and price point. Devereux's apparel represents the ever-welcomed melding of streetwear and golf; a combination that inspired the brand to move away from the country club scene and embrace the freedom to create quality clothing and accessories for the kind of golf we like; the kind where you untuck your shirt, wear your hat backwards and leave your belt at home.
