There won't likely be any sponsorship changes for the players who are not in Korea.

Min Woo Lee is officially a big shot. He is the face of Lululemon. This is a company that wants me to wear a belly shirt. You can't drive a tractor through stomach. How about you MWL?

JLPGA super geezer Saiki Fujita (turned 38 last November) made a trip pilgrimage to the HQ of Globeride last month. This is the holding company for various sporting goods brands ... in golf, they have Fourteen, Onoff, GIII and Roddio. Fujita will be playing under contract with Onoff gear in 2024 ... not the first time, as I saw a pic of her in Getty using the legendary 2015-16 version of the Onoff Kuro iron in 2016. If you dig deep enough, she has used every obscure brand under the sun (along with a few major brands) since turning pro in 2005.

Google mush from the article above:
Seong Yu-jin (24, Hanwha Q CELLS), who is about to make her official debut on the LPGA Tour, is the first Korean rookie to receive sponsorship from an American company.
According to the golf world on the 24th (Korean time), Seong Yu-jin will play with the 'Global One Bank' logo on her left back at the LPGA Tour Drive On Championship held at Bradenton Country Club (par 71) in Bradenton, Florida, USA on the 25th.
Global One Bank, which opened in September last year, has a majority shareholder and president who are Korean-American. It operates mainly for bank investors and customers in the Texas area.
Global One Bank, a new bank, plans to accelerate its market development through sub-sponsorship of LPGA Tour rookie Seong Yu-jin.
Eugene Sung is scheduled to hold an official signing ceremony in Woodland, Texas ahead of the Chevron Championship, the first major tournament of the season in April.

Didn't see this coming ... LEXI (tm) using the Maxfli Tour ball in 2024 (which model?) ... I think she played a Bridgestone last year, although there were no associated logos on her bag or attire in pics I looked at.

Hat tip to the people at GolfWrx for discovering that Minjee Lee dumped Srixon for Callaway. Haven't seen any promo photos posted yet.

Baba-chan switched to Ulticore, a new apparel brand made by Bridgestone.

Asian Games ringer Arpichaya Yubol became a ditto head this year ... Rush is dead, so what could this mean? She was wearing a Fourteen Golf visor in 2022-23 ... is she still with that gear brand?

No more Kingston Fury on the visor front for Voodoo ... now replaced by Ally Financial. She has KF on her bag, will that change?

Voodoo doing a lot better on the logos since 12 months ago ... but still has plenty of space to rent. Arcis Golf on her sleeve is a golf club operator. Acumatica is a business ERP vendor. I think that's "Secretariat" on her collar ... have no idea what that means ... do a search on it and all you get is a dead horse.
She's doing even better after today! Somewhat buried in the announcement about Ally Financial putting up the big bucks for the USWO: "Ally Signs World No. 1 Golfer Lilia Vu." www.lpga.com/news/2024/ally-financial-and-usga-join-forces-to-elevate-us-womens-open-and-pipeline-of-future-talentSo goodbye, Kingston Fury, and hello, Ally!
EDIT: You can see Lilia sporting her new visor on this video segment with Whan and an Ally exec, shown on CNBC. Somehow I missed the live segment this afternoon; must have been working or something...
