WITB - Nike Athletes at the Sony Open


Recommended Posts

  • SPY VIP
IMO the most notable bit of info in all of this is that all 5 Nike Athletes who competed in the Sony Open had the new RZN Ball in play. My guess is you're going to see wider adoption across the board...that is to say Nike will do a better job of getting the new gear in play this season. 

 

Nike's policy is basically not to force its staffers to play the latest and greatest, so among other things, you should probably starting to believe that the 2014 stuff (particularly the ball, but definitely the driver as well), has been improved significantly from last year.

 

 

Scott Brown – Scott has the new VRS Covert 2.0 driver in the bag. He really likes the head shape and ball trajectory, as well as how the ball comes off the face of this new driver.

Russell Henley – Russell has the new VRS Covert 2.0 fairway woods in the bag this week. He is really pleased with the results he is getting with these woods. Russell also has a new golf ball in the bag. He is playing with the RZN Black golf ball to defend his title at the Sony Open.

Seung-Yul Noh - Seung-Yul has the new VRS Covert 2.0 Tour driver in the bag this week in Hawaii.  He is happy with the driver performance paired with the new RZN Platinum golf ball. Seung-Yul is getting great distance off the tee and increased spin around the greens with the new RZN Platinum.

Couldn't agree with you more.  I was just getting ready to start a thread and see if anyone has heard anything about the Nike Covert 2.0 line.  They all look great, sound great and I'm sure the performance will match. I also think their new golf balls will be something everyone will want to look for!  Great stuff Nike is doing!

See you on the course.
