Montgomerie will participate in a store ribbon-cutting during the invite-only event, as well as a Q&A session moderated by former PGA TOUR player and current Golf Channel analyst, Charlie Rymer. The Q&A will also be live-streamed for fans on Comcast Florida’s Facebook page via http://new.livestream.com/comcastflorida/Monty. Fans may also submit questions on Twitter using the hashtag #AskMonty.

“As a professional golfer, I like to be hands-on and try out the latest products – whether it’s a golf club or the X1 entertainment platform from Comcast,” said Montgomerie, who is known by millions around the world as “Monty” and has won dozens of tournaments in his storied professional career. “The store is completely interactive, and really allows people to experience Comcast products and services for themselves.”

Since turning 50 in 2013, Montgomerie has been heating up The Champion’s Tour, winning two majors – the 2014 Senior PGA Championship and the 2014 U.S. Senior Open – while also working as a commentator for the Golf Channel, NBC Sports and Sky Sports.

The new North Naples Comcast XFINITY® store is conveniently located at 10600 Tamiami Trail North and is open seven days a week. The store features fully interactive touchscreen displays, an Xfinity Experience Zone, customer lounge and seating area, an X1 TV viewing experience, and iPads loaded with the many Xfinity apps that enhance the viewing experience.

Customers can test drive the newest Xfinity products and services, including the X1 Platform available now for Naples customers. X1 is a first of its kind entertainment platform that offers a more personalized and dynamic TV experience. Customers can also demo the Xfinity Home security and energy management system, the Xfinity TV Go app and the blazing fast Xfinity high-speed internet service. Small and medium-size business customers can learn more about Comcast Business products and services at kiosks throughout the store.

Customers will also appreciate the personalized service from trained and knowledgeable sales consultants and important new time-saving offerings, including self-service kiosks for quick bill pay and a new queuing system that allows customers to explore the store at their own pace instead of waiting in line for service.

“Our new North Naples Comcast XFINITY® store provides a destination where our customers can explore our products and services on their schedule, at their own pace, and in a comfortable, interactive and entertaining environment,” said Thomas Zemaitis, Comcast’s Regional Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Florida. “These stores were designed first and foremost with our customers in mind, to give them the best experience possible.”
