Expecting mom Lincicome gets support from sponsors, LPGA

PHOENIX – Brittany Lincicome delivered more exciting baby news as she makes her first LPGA start since announcing that she is pregnant.

During her pre-tournament news conference at the Bank of Hope Founder Cup on Tuesday, Lincicome revealed that two of her endorsers, CME and Diamond Resorts, are going to honor her contracts when she steps away on maternity leave. That’s not standard policy in player deals. With Stacy Lewis announcing similar news when she was pregnant last year, there’s hope for players that a sea change may be coming in the way LPGA endorsement deals are written.
