Alvaro Ortiz is one of golf’s rising stars and embodies GigNet’s dedication to professionalism, focus, and quickly emerging as a leader in a competitive field. Ortiz will serve as GigNet Ambassador and wear the GigNet logo in major International Tournaments.
Cancun, October 28, 2021 – GigNet and Mexican professional golfer Alvaro Ortiz have renewed their sponsorship and ambassador relationship for the 2022 golf season. Alvaro Ortiz is one of golf’s rising international stars, having finished in the Top 5 on the PGA Tour Latin-American circuit – earning him a position in the Korn Ferry Tour, the prelude to the PGA TOUR. Mr. Ortiz was recently crowned Champion of the 2021 Mexican Golf Open, lead the PGA TOUR Latin-America qualifying rankings, and was the first golfer from Mexico in forty years to qualify and play in the Masters Golf Tournament.
GigNet has built an extensive digital infrastructure in the Riviera Maya region of Mexico, with the newest and fastest broadband network from Cancun to Tulum. GigNet provides advanced connectivity, Internet, Wi-Fi and other broadband services for the hospitality industry, other business customers, and many residential communities. The Covid-19 pandemic underscored the need for fast, secure connectivity for work, education, healthcare, entertainment, and other online services and applications, and the demand for reliable Internet while traveling has never been greater.
Mark Carney, President of GigNet Mexico, stated, “We chose Alvaro Ortiz as an Ambassador because of the qualities he has proven in skills, dedication, focus, growth, courage, and success in rising to the top among competitors. These are important in golf and in business. We are very happy to support a young talent from Mexico like Alvaro Ortiz, who has great ability and a positive attitude – he represents the values not only of GigNet, but of Quintana Roo and Mexico.”
“Quintana Roo has achieved an important place in the world of golf, like few other areas in Mexico, including a PGA Tour event. The eyes of the world are now on Riviera Maya for the beautiful courses here, and the quality of events both professional and amateur,” said Mr. Ortiz. He added, ”GigNet’s commitment to my professional career is a source of pride. I know first-hand how important it is to have connectivity to maintain and grow my professional career, to connect with my family and friends while I am traveling for tournaments, to share achievements with fans and followers, and to interact with the media from Mexico and around the world. I am grateful and very happy with this opportunity.”
