As a Schüco brand ambassador, Dustin Johnson now belongs to a
team of popular world-class golfers who tee off on climate protection around
the world and will play in the Schüco Open 2011 in Düsseldorf. Visitors to
the tournament will once again experience how Schüco and professional golf
are a perfect match. In addition to having a connection to nature, for both
Schüco and golf, technical perfection, the utmost precision, absolute
perfection, and efficient usage of energy are decisive success factors.

Solar energy particularly important

"I'm looking forward to the new task. As someone who was born in
the sunny US state of South Carolina and now lives in Florida, solar energy
is very important, especially for future generations. Schüco is showing what
is possible with energy-efficient production - and I'm proud to work together
with this pioneer in global climate protection," says Dustin Johnson, who
since 2008 has teed off on the American PGA tour, on which he has won four
tournaments. In 2008, he won the Turning Stone Resort Championship, in 2009
and 2010 the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, and in that same year the BMW
Championship. In addition, Johnson was on the American Ryder Cup Team in
2010.

Dirk U. Hindrichs, the President and CEO of Schüco International
KG, had the following to say about the cooperation with the American
all-around golfer: "In Dustin Johnson, we were able to win a great brand
ambassador. Due to his charisma and credibility, even off of the fairways he
will be an ideal disseminator of our ideas and philosophy, especially with a
view to the North American market."
