Rock solid in FootJoys for Abu Dhabi victory
January 30, 2012

Robert Rock overcame one of the strongest fields ever assembled at a European Tour event to claim the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship with a closing two under par 70 to finish 13 under par on Sunday evening.

	The FootJoy FJ ICON 52277

FootJoy Brand Ambassador Rock strode to victory wearing FJ ICON MyJoys. The FJ ICON represents the best in style and performance, with memory foam inserts, ICON Torque Bar, and Dual OptiFlex technology, relied on by players such as runner-up and now world no. 2 Rory McIlroy and world no. 1 Luke Donald.

McIlroy pushed Rock all the way wearing the FJ SPORT, integrating proven performance attributes and premium materials. Full grain leather uppers allow for extreme levels of breathability, support and comfort with tensile strength. ProofGuard membrane technology provides exceptional waterproof protection and breathability. The 2011 US Open Champion also sported the FJ PureTouch glove.

“We are extremely pleased for Robert, as he began the tournament as 117th in the world but he proved that he can mix it with the best in the world. As a FootJoy Ambassador we hope his form continues throughout 2012 especially whilst wearing the increasingly popular FJ ICON & FJ ICON MyJoys”, commented Russell Lawes, FootJoy’s European Marketing Manager.
