Daniel Negreanu nominated MSOP ambassador

Major Series of Putting (MSOP) today announced that world-renowned poker player Daniel Negreanu will act as an ambassador for MSOP. Negreanu will also be playing in championship events during the MSOP finals taking place 27 October to 5 November in Las Vegas.

"I'm thrilled to collaborate with MSOP while also joining the competition as a player in Championship events," said Negreanu. "I happen to be one of the top five putters in the world, according to me, and as someone who enjoys a leisurely game of golf, this is a great opportunity to school other competitors."

Negreanu became interested in gambling and poker at just 16 years old and has worked his way up in the poker world since. At the age of 23, Negreanu became the youngest player to date to win a World Series of Poker bracelet. He was named World Series of Poker Player of the Year in 2004 and 2013 and is recognized as poker's all-time money leader, with over $32 million in winnings. Negreanu continues to be one of the top poker players in the world, as well as an avid golf fan.
