Bryson DeChambeau and Bridgestone Golf Dominate in Dubai

Bryson DeChambeau and Bridgestone Golf are one on heck of a burner right now.  DeChambeau won his first European Tour event last week with a convincing 7-shot victory at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic.  And Bridgestone Golf won for the 8th time in the last 17 events, including wins on the PGA Tour and LPGA over the last five months. 

 

DeChambeau hit 80-percent of the Greens-In-Regulation on Sunday using the Bridgestone Tour B X ball (good for second in the field), and his victory was the seventh in his career.  In DeChambeau's last nine starts, he's won four times, picked up another two top-10s, and hasn't finished outside the top-20 a single time.  I think it's safe to say Bryson trusts his golf ball. 

Throughout the week, DeChambeau hit prodigious drives and pinpoint approach shots on his way to finishing with a record 24-under par for the tournament.   And starting the final round with a slim 1-shot lead, DeChambeau once again proved he's one of the best closers in the game.  Bryson fired an 8-under, 64 that included seven birdies and an eagle to finish with the largest margin of victory in the event's history. 

 

President & CEO of Bridgestone Golf, Dan Murphy said, 

"We are excited for Bryson to get his first-ever professional international win this weekend and his 4th worldwide victory in the last 7 months.  What the Bridgestone brand is experiencing at the Tour level right now is almost surreal, and when you add this Tour success to the incredible reception our brand received this past week at the PGA Merchandise Show, 2019 is shaping up to be a special year for Bridgestone Golf." 

DeChambeau switched to the Tour B X in late 2017 after extensive experimentation revealed a significant impact on his driving, iron play, short game, and putting.  Bryson also wears Bridgestone’s new Tour B FIT glove, featuring high-end cabretta leather with FIT technology to ensure a soft feel, consistent grip, and excellent durability. 

 

The Tour B golf ball series is a result of Bridgestone’s continued commitment to providing premium tee-to-green performance to players of varying swing types.  And with over 800 golf ball patents, Bridgestone's heritage of excellence in designing the industry’s most cutting-edge golf balls continues to grow stronger.
