Van Der Walt Powers Home with Final-Round 67 to Earn First Career European Tour Win at Inaugural Tshwane Open
(CARLSBAD, Calif.) – TaylorMade-adidas Tour Staff professional Dawie Van Der Walt, armed with a bag of new equipment including the R1 driver, RBZ Stage 2 metalwoods and RocketBladez Tour irons, earned his first career European Tour win Sunday after a final-round 67 powered him to victory at the inaugural Tshwane Open. Tackling an immensely long layout at Copperleaf Golf and Country Estate – the course played more than 7,700 yards – Van Der Walt (-21) missed only two fairways and one green (17/18 GIR) during his final-round charge, a testament to his confidence and precision with the R1 driver and RocketBladez Tour irons.
Van Der Walt’s two-shot victory can be largely attributed to his red-hot outward nine during Sunday’s final round, as he eagled the behemoth par-5 fourth hole (685 yards) and followed with birdies at No. 6 and 7, turning in a bogey-free 32. The win marks the first European Tour victory for TaylorMade’s new Lethal golf ball.
TaylorMade was the No. 1 driver and fairway wood brand in play at the inaugural Tshwane Open, including 37 R1 drivers.
In the Bag:
* R1 Driver (Oban Kiyoshi 75 X)
* RBZ Stage 2 Tour 14.5° fairway (Oban Kiyoshi 85 X)
* RBZ Stage 2 Tour 18.5° Rescue (Oban Kiyoshi 100 S)
* RocketBladez Tour irons (3-PW)
* Lethal Golf ball
* adidas Golf adiPURE footwear
