Nick Martinelli

Who are you?
My name is Nick and I’m lucky to call some of the most talented, creative people in sportswear both friends and collaborators. I’ve worked with brands like Nike, Malbon, WHIM, J.Lindeberg, Complex, and Metalwood Studio on a wide range of creative projects.

Current job in golf?
I’m the Director of Global Retail Experience at LIV Golf, shaping how the brand and our teams show up across events, merchandise, collaborations, and physical environments worldwide.

What’s golf to you?
A growing community of people from all walks of life who bond over the fact that none of us are that good at it.

Target handicap?
Getting back to scratch, but that won’t happen anytime soon…

Favorite golf course?
The Cradle 9-hole short course at Pinehurst… No shoes, a few clubs, drinks, music, some fun shots with friends.

A blue & white putter boy ball marker from the Pinehurst CC members only pro shop.
