MAI Capital Management Congratulates Bud Cauley on First PGA TOUR Victory, Announces Multi-Year Sponsorship
Cauley's victory at the 2026 RBC Canadian Open caps his comeback story, as MAI announces a partnership built on shared values of perseverance and professionalism
MAI Capital Management (“MAI”), a registered investment advisor (RIA) focused on empowering clients to simplify, protect and grow their wealth, congratulates Bud Cauley on his first PGA TOUR victory at the 2026 RBC Canadian Open as it announces its Sports & Entertainment division has entered a multi-year sponsorship agreement with the longtime MAI client. The partnership, which extends through the 2027 season, celebrates Cauley's perseverance and professionalism and reflects MAI's commitment to supporting elite athletes on and off the course.
MAI’s connection to professional golf extends to its earliest days. The firm was founded in 1973 based on a handshake deal between golfing legend Arnold Palmer and his agent, Mark McCormack. McCormack's vision for helping athletes extended beyond financial planning to encompass business management, tax support and lifestyle guidance so clients could focus entirely on their game. That same philosophy, removing complexity from an athlete's life so they can concentrate on what they do best, is central to how MAI serves its clients today, including Cauley, whose journey as both a client and competitor embodies that spirit.
