Hass Claims Titleist’s Third Consectutive PGA Tour Victory
The Next Generation of Trust: Titleist Brand Ambassador Bill Haas Wins Bob Hope Classic 22 Years after his Father.
Success at the highest levels of competitive golf requires absolute trust in yourself and in your equipment. At the Bob Hope Classic, Titleist Brand Ambassador Bill Haas, demonstrated just how powerful that trust can be. Relying upon the Pro V1 golf ball and 14 Titleist golf clubs from tee-to-green, Haas realised a dream, winning for the first time on the PGA TOUR. With a birdie on the final hole, his well-earned victory comes 22 years after his father, fellow Titleist Brand Ambassador Jay Haas, also won the Bob Hope Classic.
Haas closed with an 8-under 64, the best final round of his PGA TOUR career, to finish the weather-delayed 90-hole event at 30-under par, 330. He becomes the third first-time winner of the Bob Hope Classic in four years, each of whom also trusted Titleist golf balls for their success. Recent winners of the event include fellow Titleist Brand Ambassador Charley Hoffman in 2007 and last year’s winner who relied upon the Pro V1x.
Haas trusted Titleist throughout his bag including the legendary Titleist Pro V1 ball, 909D2 driver (8.5), 909F3 fairway metal (13.0), New Titleist CB irons (2-P), Vokey Design Spin Milled C-C sand (54) and lob (60) wedges and Scotty Cameron Kombi putter.
Haas’ victory continues Titleist’s impressive start to the 2010 PGA Tour season, making it three wins from three events for the Pro V1 following victories by Titleist Brand Ambassador Geoff Ogilvy and Pro V1 loyalist Ryan Palmer in recent weeks. As well as being the choice of the champion at the Bob Hope Classic, Titleist was the overwhelming golf ball of choice with 81 players (63%), more than four times the nearest competitor with 18. Titleist also topped the counts in irons, sand, lob and approach wedges and the putter category.
Elsewhere, full line Titleist player Mitchell Brown trusted the performance and playability of Titleist to claim his first Australasian Tour victory. Brown beat fellow Titleist Ambassador Ashley Hall in an all-Titleist play-off at the New Zealand PGA Championship to top a leaderboard where 11 of the 13 players in the top-10 trusted a Titleist golf ball. On the Champions Tour, Tom Watson trusted the feel and control of the Pro V1 to win the Mitsubishi Electric Championship in Hawaii. Titleist also topped the counts for irons sets, sand, lob and approach wedges and putters at this event.
The third consecutive victory on the 2010 PGA Tour for the legendary Pro V1 franchise, and the second for a full line Titleist player, in addition to yet more victories across worldwide professional tours, offers further proof that the game’s elite opt for the matchless performance of Titleist.
