4. Bryan Bros

Brothers George and Wesley Bryan were successful golfers on their own, but when they teamed up as a trick-shot duo, something amazing happened. Known as the Bryan Bros, they gained a large following online through a series of trick shots filmed and uploaded to their YouTube channel. Their signature trick is when one brother hits a golf ball up into the air for the other brother to launch it full-swing down the course. Lexus began their partnership with the Bryan Bros in 2015.

5. Natalie Gulbis

Natalie Gulbis' passion for golf started at the young age of four, and by seven years old she won her first tournament. She earned a scholarship to play at the University of Arizona in 1999, where she won several tournaments and even played the U.S. Women's Open, tieing for the No. 34 spot. In 2002, she solidified her career as a full-time LPGA Tour professional, winning at the 2007 Evian Masters. Lexus has sponsored Gulbis since 2010.

6. Jamie Sadlowski

Canadian-born Jamie Sadlowski started off playing junior hockey, and he used those talents to realize that a career as a power-shot golfer would be fruitful. Sadlowski is best known for his incredible swing and the unbelievable ball speed it creates. Lexus partnered with Sadlowski in 2013 for good reason; he's never placed worse than 5th in any of his competitions.

7. Lydia Ko

South Korean-born Lydia Ko may only be 19 years old, but she is a serious competitive golfer who's been winning championships since 2012. That year, at only 15 years old, she was the youngest person to win a professional golf event and the LPGA Tour. Her success only continued; in 2015, Ko was the youngest player in all of golf history to be ranked No. 1 in the entire world. Considering Lexus scooped her up just this year, I'm really not sure what took them so long!
