New York, April 8, 2025 – Wealthspire Advisors LLC (“Wealthspire Advisors”), a top-ranked1 independent registered investment adviser and NFP company, continues to expand its commitment to athletes by announcing partnerships with professional golfers Isaiah Salinda and Max McGreevy. Additionally, the firm is deepening its investment in the next generation of elite talent by sponsoring amateur golfer Tyler Watts as part of its Name-Image-Likeness (NIL) program.
Wealthspire is dedicated to supporting athletes at every stage of their careers, from aspiring juniors to seasoned professionals, by providing financial guidance that helps them navigate the complexities of wealth management, career earnings, and long-term financial security. The firm's significant sports and entertainment client base currently includes more than 50 professional and amateur athletes. Wealthspire also sponsors numerous sporting events including The American Express™ golf tournament.
A Legacy of Supporting Athletes in their Pursuit of Excellence
These new partnerships build on the firm’s ongoing efforts to support elite athletes. In 2024, Wealthspire announced a partnership with Matthieu Pavon, winner of the 2024 Farmers Insurance Open and a member of France’s national team at the 2024 Summer Olympics.
“Professional athletes face unique financial challenges—balancing the demands of their sport while maximizing their earnings, securing their futures, and taking care of their families,” said Frank Marzano, Managing Director and former CEO of GM Advisory Group.
John Kovacs, Managing Director and Head of Wealthspire’s Palm Beach Gardens office expanded, “Our firm offers specialized financial planning to meet the complex needs of athletes, entertainers, and high-net-worth individuals at varying stages of their careers. We are proud to support Salinda, McGreevy, and Watts as they pursue excellence in their careers.”
Athletes on the Rise
Isaiah Salinda continues to establish himself on the professional circuit. In early 2025, he finished in 45th place with a final score of +5 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and a third-place finish at the Mexico Open, where he shot 19-under. Salinda claimed his first professional victory at the 2024 Panama Championship on the Korn Ferry Tour. Follow Salinda on IG or X.
Max McGreevy brings extensive experience to the partnership. His 2025 season includes a T40 finish at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, T25 at the Mexico Open, and T4 at the Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches. McGreevy has captured three Korn Ferry Tour titles, including two victories in 2024 at the Memorial Health Championship and Magnit Championship, securing his PGA Tour card for 2025. Follow McGreevey on IG or X.
Tyler Watts, currently ranked No. 6 by the American Junior Golf Association (AJGA), is among the nation’s top junior golfers. He recently placed T12 at The Dustin Johnson World Junior Golf Championship and T16 at the AJGA Simplify Boys Championship at Carlton Woods. Watts has verbally committed to play collegiate golf at the University of Tennessee. Follow Watts on IG.
“By building strong relationships and providing Salinda, McGreevy, and Watts with an exceptional client experience, it enables us to contribute to the continued growth and success of the PGA and AJGA,” said Kovacs.
“We’re thrilled to support Salinda and McGreevy as they take on the PGA Tour,” said Marzano, “and our commitment extends beyond supporting just the Tour. We are also dedicated to fostering emerging talent like Watts through our NIL sponsorships, ensuring young athletes have access to the financial resources they need to compete at the highest levels.”
