09/17/2024


Las Vegas Sands has introduced LPGA Tour professional Muni “Lily” He as its latest champion ambassador. Originally from China, He will collaborate with Sands to promote women’s golf, using its resorts and the Sands Cares community engagement program to highlight women’s leadership both on and off the golf course through motivational appearances and discussions.
 
Joining the ranks of pro golfers Collin Morikawa, Minjee Lee, and Li Haotong, who are also Sands’ champion ambassadors, He will support sports initiatives designed to create memorable experiences for guests, showcase Sands’ resorts globally, and contribute to community causes through impactful programs.
 
“I’m thrilled to partner with Sands, a world-class hospitality company, especially given its significant presence in Asia where we both have dedicated supporters,” He said. “We share a passion for promoting women’s golf and inspiring the next generation, particularly young women. I’m eager to visit Sands’ resorts and connect with its guests and communities.”
 
Born in Chengdu, China, He, now 24, has had a global golf career that spans from Canada to California, with her current base in Los Angeles. A standout in junior golf, He gained recognition at 16 when she qualified for the 2015 U.S. Women’s Open. She played a key role in the University of Southern California women’s golf team’s victory at the 2017 NCAA East Lake Finale.
 
Turning pro in late 2017, He claimed her first win at the 2018 Prasco Charity Championship on the Symetra Tour. Her outstanding performance in the 2019 Q-Series, where she recorded eight consecutive rounds under par, earned her a spot on the 2020 LPGA Tour. She also requalified for the U.S. Women’s Open in 2022.
 
Off the golf course, He has built a substantial following of over 890,000 on Instagram, where she shares her experiences in golf, fitness, and fashion. She continues to shine as one of Asia’s most marketable and dynamic sports figures, captivating audiences with her diverse talents and unwavering passion.
 
“As a successful professional athlete and lifestyle influencer, Lily is a tremendous addition to our team of champion ambassadors,” Sands Chairman and CEO Robert G. Goldstein said. “With her China roots, she will be particularly inspirational in our Asia regions, and we look forward to featuring her in our efforts to showcase successful women’s sports stars as motivating role models.”
