New Trading Cards & Memorabilia Feature Career-Defining Moments of Golf Star

CARLSBAD, Calif., Feb. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Upper Deck, the worldwide leader in sports and entertainment collectibles, today announced its exclusive trading card and memorabilia agreement with standout golfer Rose Zhang. The 21-year-old is a leader on and off the green; making significant waves in the sport as the No. 9 ranked player in the world, and a role model using her platform for athletes to push beyond barriers and pursue their passions.

“Ever since I was young, golf has always been a passion of mine and I’m so excited to see these career moments captured across trading cards and memorabilia,” Zhang said. “I hope to inspire young athletes to chase their dreams, just like I did when I was a young child with a dream.”

Dubbed the “Mozart of Golf,” Zhang continues to build an impressive career, and Upper Deck will capture key milestones for fans to cherish. After her professional debut in 2023, Zhang became the first woman to win an LPGA Tour in their debut year since 1951. She made history once again in 2024, snagging her second LPGA title at the Cognizant Founders Cup and setting a new tournament scoring record of 24-under-par. To add to the list of accomplishments in her young career, she also represented the U.S. in the 2024 summer games in Paris. During her amateur days, Zhang took home 27 titles including winning the 2023 Augusta National Women’s Amateur. In the early collegiate phase of her career, Zhang was not only a 2x NCAA champion, but the first woman to win back-to-back individual national Division I championships.

“At Upper Deck, we team up with the best athletes in their sport, and there is no doubt that Rose Zhang will have a big impact on the game of golf. As we continue to champion the best in sport, we are excited to have her join our elite roster,” stated Upper Deck President Jason Masherah.
