TaylorMade Golf – Sergio Garcia wins Omega Dubai Desert Classic with a full bag of new 2017 equipment

February 6, 2017 – Sergio Garcia claimed his 12th European Tour title as he completed a dominant wire-to-wire win at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic. Gaming a full bag of new 2017 TaylorMade equipment, including the new 2017 M2 Driver and TP5 golf ball, Garcia set the tone for the tournament with an opening 65 and never looked back. Wearing adidas Golf apparel and footwear, Garcia continued his momentum and finished strong with a bogey-free round 69 to get to -19, beating his nearest competitor by three shots.

This win marks Garcia’s 12th win on the European Tour and moves him back into the Top-10 of the Official World Golf Ranking. He claimed the second global victory for the new TP5 golf ball, after the first by Jon Rahm last weekend (TP5 and Tp5x golf balls will available at retail in March).

The Spanish golfer played the 2017 M2 Driver, and his key statistics are outstanding. He took the 3rd position in Driving Distance with 305 yards and the 2nd in Driving Accuracy with 69.6%. Playing his new P750 Tour Proto irons throughout he took the 1st position in Stroke Average with 67.25, and was also the 1st of Green in Regulation with 81.9%. Garcia’s win marks the second win for the adidas Golf Powerband BOA BOOST.

For the company, this event at the Emirates Golf Course has been a complete success. This is the 4th worldwide win, and the 2nd on the European Tour this year for TaylorMade’s 2017 M drivers. The PGA Tour saw fellow Spaniard Jon Rahm claim victory at the Farmers Insurance Open last week gaming a 2017 M2 Driver. TaylorMade also had 45.5% driver and 41.9% fairway wood counts at the tournament, both of which led all manufacturers by substantial margins. So, the 2017 M1 440 has been claimed the No.1 Driver model. The all-new M metalwoods have dominated during the European Tour Desert Swing claiming No.1 Driver model at each tournament.

TaylorMade Golf – Jason Day wins Farmers Insurance, his third PGA Tour victory

Jason-Day-Farmers-Insurance-1

February 10, 2015 – Playing what is considered one of the sternest tests on the PGA Tour at the long and unforgiving pair of Torrey Pines layouts, it was TaylorMade Golf’s Jason Day who emerged victorious, winning a four man playoff on the South Course to capture the Farmers Insurance Open. The victory is Day’s second win in eight weeks, having also won the Franklin Templeton Shootout in December.

Complementing his bag full of TaylorMade clubs, Day wore adidas’ newest high-performance golf footwear, adipower boost, throughout the tournament. Boost is an industry-changing innovation years in the making, designed to deliver maximum energy return, responsiveness and unparalleled comfort by way of thousands of TPU energy capsules fused together by way of a proprietary high pressure steam moulding process.

Jason-Day-Farmers-3For the first time, designers have utilised tour-proven gripmore spikes of varying sizes, strategically locating them on the outsole to deliver improved and more efficient traction and stability where it’s needed most.

Jason Day added the R15 driver to his bag just ten days prior to the Franklin Templeton Shootout in December, becoming one of the first TaylorMade staff players to make the switch from SLDR. The R15 is offered in both black and white and features a desirable, playable pear-shape in two head sizes – 460cc and 430cc.

Also it was the #1 Driver model in play at this week’s tournament with 21 total in play (430 & 460).

Jason also added an AeroBurner HL Fairway which replaces the RBZ three wood which has been in his bag for the past three seasons. Day found his new AeroBurner fairway launched hotter, flew further and landed softer which enabled him to attack the challenging Torrey Pines layouts.

In Jason Day’s Bag:

Jason-Day-bag-Farmers-Insurance

  • Day’s win is his second with the R15 driver, which he added to the bag just ten days prior to capturing the Franklin Templeton Shootout in December.
