FINAL LEADERBOARD

EQUIPMENT NOTES:

  • Hatton’s victory, his third around the world inside 12 months, continues an extremely strong period for PING clubs on the world’s top Tours generally, and specifically the recently released G425 driver. The 29-year-old’s driver is significantly lofted down from the 10.5˚ stamped on the head and the model has already been used to win a women’s major, the Race to Dubai, a PGA Tour event and now a Rolex Series tournament.

  • One of the more consistently good putters on Tour, Hatton’s play with his irons and wedges was the standout this week in the Middle East. Ranking second in Strokes Gained: Approach the Green, Hatton has been a long time user of the i210 irons from his sponsor PING.

  • Now well established in the top-10 of the world rankings, Hatton’s win gives both PING and Titleist a unique double, with PING making up the majority of clubs in the bag and Titleist golf balls the choice for both the winner of this event in back-to-back years as well as the winner of the last tournament of 2020 and first of 2021.
