Stephanie Linnartz will join Under Armour as President, Chief Executive Officer, and member of its Board of Directors, effective February 27, 2023.

Under Armour introduces the all new UA HOVR™ Phantom 3: a neutral, responsive running shoe designed for specialty athletes training to compete—those who would do anything to improve in the offseason so they may perform at their best in season. Fully tested and validated by UA Athletes, the UA HOVR™ Phantom 3 maintains the Phantom’s reputation as UA’s most versatile running shoe. It delivers the speed and propulsion that athletes demand from a performance running shoe while maintaining the comfort and stability needed from a training shoe. In developing the UA HOVR Phantom 3, the footwear design team analyzed the demands of the sport-driven athlete who is hitting the pavement through short runs and intervals as part of a comprehensive training regimen. The HOVR Phantom 3 seamlessly transitions from treadmill to gym, making it a must have for athletes who run for sport. Anyone watching fast pitch softball this summer in Tokyo or even before that at the Women’s College World Series in Oklahoma City knows the future of the sport is in good hands. Under Armour will tap into that talent and strengthen their presence in the sport by adding two young stars to their athlete roster with Rachel Garcia and Oddici Alexander. These additions, coupled with Under Armour’s recent partnership with Alliance FastPitch, give the brand a strong foothold in the growing sport of softball. “We could not be more excited about adding both Rachel and Odicci to the Under Armour family,” said Sean Eggert, Under Armour Senior Vice President of Global Sports Marketing. “As two of the most feared competitors in the game on the field, we look forward to working with them to achieve their equally ambitious goals for the sport.” UA IntelliKnit Phantom 2.0 Crew Layering up for winter runs usually means peeling off gear mile after mile. We solved that problem by reinventing this knit at the microscopic level, so it not only keeps you warm but stays light and breathable all run long. The UA IntelliKnit Phantom 2.0 Crew is made of high-performance yarns with zero-waste construction provide breathable warmth without the weight, and the body-mapped knit construction allows for insanely fast dry times. Putting data driven design and performance above all else, the fifth iteration of Spieth’s signature golf shoe has the comfort and feel of a spikeless, with all the traction and power of a spiked. Through UA’s own innovation in spikeless outsole construction – and the introduction of a “Fourth Dimension of Traction” – you’ll swear they’re still spiked with the same comfort and incredible traction, even in wet weather. Developed in conjunction with leading bio-mechanist, and foremost authority on the foot's behaviour during the golf swing, Jean-Jacques Rivet, Under Armour has built its own proprietary traction technologies – Rotational Resistance in 2016 followed by Horizontal and Vertical Traction in 2019. Georgia Ellenwood is a Canadian Heptathlete who is an 8-time NCAA Division I All-American and 2018 NCAA Champion, and has represented Canada at the 2016 Indoor World Championships. As Under Armour Canada’s first multi-event athlete, Georgia uses more than 7 pairs of shoes for competing, for the following events: 100m hurdles, high jump, shot put, 200m, long jump, javelin throw and 800m. Georgia played an integral role in the weartesting and design process of the new spike collection, which recently launched on ua.com. We caught up with Georgia to chat about her role in the development of the new collection, how her training has changed in 2020, and her goals for 2021.

When it comes to footwear, today's ballplayers want it all – style, speed and simplicity. Enter the Curry 4 FloTro, which combines style elements from the fan-favorite Curry 4 with Under Armour’s award-winning UA Flow technology. The first in a series of reimagined models set to debut this year, the Curry 4 FloTro pays homage to the shoe that propelled Stephen in some of his most historic performances. While wearing Curry 4, Stephen became the fastest player in NBA history to achieve 2,000 career three-pointers and helped the Golden State Warriors clinch the 2017 championship title during a highly anticipated rematch of the prior year’s playoffs.

I've always loved the work. Let me add two points of emphasis: I've always loved the work. I stand by that idea, loving the work. I think it's the key to whatever success you think you want. I'm not saying you have to do it all with a smile on your face. I feel free out there on the green, I’m loving what I do. And if I love what I do, I’m going to do it well. But love is an action verb, a word of action, not just some vague term to be thrown around. This idea, in my opinion, applies to your work. This is true even if you don’t know when you’re going to be allowed to apply that ‘work’ in a real-life setting. The break we had this past year, definitely tested all of the players on the PGA Tour and all the other tours of the world. The reality of it was, everything flattened out. There was no momentum for anyone; everyone had to recalibrate.When the CEO brings boss energy to the mission, it empowers the people working for him to charge forward and . . . well, in this case, literally conquer a mountain.
