Bubba Stays Cool in Kentwool Socks During Pressure-Packed Playoff Win

Bubba Watson walks 20 holes on Sunday to hoist Travelers trophy in the 'World’s Best Golf Sock'

(GREENVILLE, S.C.) — Longtime KENTWOOL team member, Bubba Watson, managed to stay cool in his KENTWOOL Natural Tour Profile socks while winning the Travelers Championship in dramatic fashion with a birdie on the second extra hole on Sunday. The victory was Watson’s second playoff win at TPC River Highlands while sporting the “World’s Best Golf Sock.”

Damp conditions and 20 holes of pressure-packed golf were no match for the moisture-wicking performance attributes of KENTWOOL’s Merino Wool Tour Profile sock on the feet of the always-cool Watson. After splitting the fairway with his tee shot on his third trip down eighteen, Watson stuck his approach shot within 10-feet and marched to the green in cool, comfortable style to sink his birdie putt and secure his eighth career win and second Travelers title.

“We’re proud to have walked every step with Bubba as he showed his grit, yet again, en route to another exciting playoff victory,” said Dan Murphy, president at KENTWOOL. “Bubba is tough to beat, especially in a playoff. It’s fun to know that his feet are dry while there is sweat on his brow during the heat of battle.”

Since 2008, KENTWOOL has been manufacturing the “World’s Best Golf Sock.” Drawing on over 150 years of mastery in wool manufacturing, KENTWOOL has leveraged the attributes of the natural “smart” fiber for unmatched comfort and performance in the sock category.
