There’s nothing quite like a homecoming, and an apparel brand is making it a little extra special for one of its PGA Tour players at the 2026 Genesis Invitational.
Jake Knapp, who grew up just outside Los Angeles, is embracing his Southern California roots with special scripting from Johnnie-O this week at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades.
On Thursday, Knapp will be repping his alma mater with the Johnnie-O UCLA Bruins Beau Striped Performance Polo. He spent three seasons as a standout golfer at UCLA before turning pro in 2016. Then on Friday, Knapp will support his hockey team with some officially-branded Anaheim Ducks gear, including the Stetsons Striped Performance Mesh Polo.

Knapp is off to an excellent start in 2026. He’s made the cut in all four events he’s played thus far and his worst finish is a T-11 at the Sony Open in Hawaii. He placed eighth at both the WM Phoenix Open and the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, while recording a top-five at the Farmers Insurance Open.

That said, it’s been nearly two full years since Knapp secured his first and only win on the PGA Tour — the 2024 Mexico Open at Vidanta. Could this be the week he rejoins the winner’s circle? Time will tell, but one thing is for sure: He’ll be dressed for success.
