The top 10 neighbors for FootJoy form a tightly compressed, single-sport cluster — golf equipment brands, tour athletes, a governing body, and a media channel, all scoring between 0.93 and 0.97 with no meaningful gap between them.
The shape is flat. PING GOLF leads at 0.97, followed by Dustin Johnson at 0.96 and Titleist at 0.95. Jason Dufner (0.94), Rickie Fowler (0.94), and Jason Day (0.94) sit just behind. PGA Tour (0.94) and Golf Channel (0.94) round out the institutional side, with David Feherty (0.94) and Rory McIlroy (0.93) closing the set. Across all ten, six are Athletes (subcategory), two are Brands, one is a Sports League, and one is a TV Channel — every single one golf-specific. No other Footwear brand appears in the top 10.
FootJoy is classified as Footwear, but its nearest audiences are shaped entirely by golf-equipment brands and tour professionals, not by the broader footwear or athletic-apparel space. The flat distribution — less than four hundredths of a point separating first from tenth — signals an audience that is deeply golf-identified rather than sport-general, with no single neighbor pulling meaningfully ahead of the rest.
