The OccuNet Company Announces Partnership with Amarillo Native and Four-Time PGA TOUR Winner
AMARILLO, Texas — The OccuNet Company is proud to announce a partnership with professional golfer Ryan Palmer, an Amarillo native and four-time PGA TOUR winner. The partnership brings together two success stories with deep roots in the Texas Panhandle and a shared commitment to excellence, consistency, and community.
Palmer will serve as a brand ambassador for The OccuNet Company. As part of the partnership, he will wear The OccuNet Company logo on his hat during all 2026 competitions, including the Korn Ferry Tour’s OccuNet Classic, and participate in select company engagements throughout the year.
“This partnership is especially meaningful because Ryan is one of Amarillo’s own,” said Alex Fairly, Chairman of The OccuNet Company. “He represents what’s possible when talent, work ethic, and strong values come together. We’re proud to partner with Ryan and celebrate our shared commitment to giving back to our hometown.”
The partnership also aligns closely with OccuNet’s growing presence in professional golf. The OccuNet Company is the title sponsor of the Korn Ferry Tour’s OccuNet Classic presented by Amarillo National Bank, which will take place June 8–14, 2026, at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas. The tournament brings elite professional golf to the Texas Panhandle and reinforces OccuNet’s investment in the local community and the future of the sport.
Ryan Palmer first honed his game at Tascosa Golf Club, the same course that will host the OccuNet Classic. Since then, he has competed at the highest levels of professional golf for more than two decades, with appearances on the PGA TOUR, Korn Ferry Tour, and select events on the DP World Tour. Since turning professional in 2000, Palmer has earned more than $33 million in career prize money and captured four PGA TOUR victories, establishing himself as one of the game’s most consistent competitors.
Beyond his accomplishments on the course, Palmer is widely respected for his commitment to giving back. Through the Ryan Palmer Foundation, which he founded alongside his wife, Jennifer, Palmer has helped raise substantial funds to provide dental care for children in need, support breast cancer initiatives that offer women hope through early detection and comfort during treatment, and fund scholarships for aspiring young golfers, extending his impact well beyond the fairways.
“Amarillo will always be home for me,” said Palmer. “Partnering with a company headquartered in Amarillo that actively gives back to the community through events like the OccuNet Classic is something I’m genuinely proud of. It’s exciting to see this level of professional golf come to Tascosa Golf Club, and I’m honored to be part of that story.”
Through this partnership, The OccuNet Company and Palmer aim to highlight Amarillo’s role in developing talent and fostering opportunity, while strengthening the connection between professional golf and the local community.
