Elite golf competition now powered by the Docusign Intelligent Agreement Management platform; groundbreaking partnership will provide business education to student athletes

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- UNDERRATED Golf, the junior golf development platform founded by 4x NBA champion Stephen Curry, and Docusign, the intelligent agreement management and e-signature company, today announced a landmark strategic partnership designed to expand opportunity for the next generation of student-athletes — both on the course and in the boardroom.

The "Where Deals Get Done" partnership will leverage the Docusign Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) platform to power UNDERRATED Golf's tour operations and events, while simultaneously delivering a first-of-its-kind business education "Dealmakers of the Future" curriculum to UNDERRATED Golf's student-athletes. The partnership will kick off in a marquee activation at the Curry Cup, the tour's season-ending championship event, scheduled for September 2026 at the esteemed Bethpage Black in Long Island, New York.

Docusign powers UNDERRATED Golf

"A single tournament stop is governed by dozens if not a hundred contracts — venue, vendors, sponsors, staff," said Jason Richards, Tournament Operations Director of UNDERRATED Golf. "Being able to search it all as one bundle, tied to that event date, is the difference between running operations and reacting to whatever catches fire that week. And the renewal alerts alone can save us from letting a multi-year sponsorship or venue deal quietly auto-renew without a conversation. This platform won't just store our contracts — it will inform how we actually operate for the better."

"Docusign has always been about empowering people and businesses to move forward with confidence — whether that's closing a business deal or signing a life-changing agreement," said Allan Thygesen, CEO, Docusign. "Partnering with the UNDERRATED Golf Tour gives us the incredible opportunity to help a new generation of student-athletes become the next generation of dealmakers."

Empowering Student-Athletes Beyond the Fairway

UNDERRATED Golf was founded on the belief that golf — and the opportunities it creates — should be accessible to all, regardless of background. The Docusign IAM platform will serve as the official contract management and e-signature solution for UNDERRATED Golf, streamlining the tour's operations and serving as a real-world demonstration of how modern businesses manage agreements at scale.

"At UNDERRATED Golf, we believe that our student-athletes deserve every opportunity to succeed — not just as golfers, but as future leaders and dealmakers," said Richards. "Partnering with Docusign means our athletes will have continued opportunities on and off the course, and our UNDERRATED Golf team will have the necessary contract management tools it needs to help us execute a successful tour."

At the heart of the partnership is a commitment to equipping UNDERRATED Golf's student-athletes with the tools, knowledge, and networks they need to succeed in business and life. Docusign will design and deliver a series of exclusive educational programs from experienced dealmakers across industries.
