Johnson and Leishman Trust Titleist in Winning Performances

Titleist Brand Ambassador Zach Johnson is a proven winner on the PGA Tour, and his performance at the Valero Texas Open demonstrated a trust in himself and his Titleist equipment. Relying on the Pro V1x golf ball and the new 909D2 driver, Johnson was fit for success, posting a sizzling 62-64 on the weekend for his fourth career victory.

60-M wins at Canadian Open, Available at Vokey.com

Titleist ambassador Chez Reavie has generated a lot of attention by capturing his first PGA Tour victory at the RBC Canadian Open using a new Titleist 909 driver. Equally impressive, though, were the many delicate greenside shots he was able to perform throughout the week with his Vokey Design Spin Milled 60-M, which he has bent to 58°.

The 60-M is the wedge that started it all for Voke on Tour, and the M grind is the basis for many of the special grinds that have followed. The 60-M features a crescent shaped forward bounce surface with moderate width and very little camber for versatile performance from a variety of turf conditions and face angles. A limited number of Vokey Design 60-M wedges are currently available for customization and purchase through Wedge Works on Vokey.com.

More from The Open Championship at Royal Birkdale

Voke and the rest of Team Titleist sent over some more pictures from early in the week at The Open Championship. Looks like the weather has been a little off and on during the practice days…we’ll have to see what’s in store once the championship begins Thursday. Be sure to view the photo gallery to see what everyone was up to at Royal Birkdale.

Voke at The Open Championship

This week The Open Championship returns to Royal Birkdale for the ninth time and Bob Vokey is on-site, working with players and fine-tuning wedges for the unique demands of links golf. Be sure to view the photo gallery, with several shots taken straight from Bob’s Blackberry. We’re still trying to determine if the weather is really as dreary as it appears, or if Voke might have dropped the Blackberry in a water hazard at some point. (We’ll keep you posted.)

By the way - Happy Birthday, Bob, from all your friends at Titleist!
