Kaenon Polarized

GOLF – Northern Trust Open, Pacific Palisades, CA

The weather didn’t provide much sun last week, but Kaenon’s golfers braved the elements and thanks to the range of Kaenon performance lens tints, played through the tough weather at the famed Riviera Country Club in the Northern Trust Los Angeles Open. Robert Allenby lives in Hard Kore C50 lens, rain or shine, and battled conditions more similar to St. Andrews Scotland than to LA, as the area saw heavy rain throughout the tournament.

Kevin Stadler wearing the new Klay Matte Black G12 finished 10th. Allenby continued his streak of solid play collecting a top 30, as did Rod Pampling in Hard Kore G28 Rx.

Davis Love III wore Hard Kore G28, Nick O’Hern was in Hard Kore C28 (he frequently changes lens tints according to sun conditions), and Kevin Streelman played in Hard Kore Black G12.

The AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am tees off on Thursday, February 11th in scenic Monterey, California, where Kaenon golfers will be vying for the $6,200,000 purse.

Kevin Stadler (aka Baby Walrus), playing in Lewi Black Pearl G12, tied for the win after regulation, but lost on the 3rd playoff hole just missing his first PGA Tour victory – settling for 2nd. “I knew I was three (strokes) back and needed to do something,” Stadler said. “I thought I was just stuck in neutral and the next (leaderboard) I saw, I was only one back.”

Brian Gay wearing Jetty Black G12 played an astonishing game in the Verizon Heritage today, breaking multiple records and giving PGA fans and commentators much to talk about from behind his SR-91 polarized lenses, he told CBS and their viewers “I just saw the line,” in his post-round interview, as he set records for the fewest bogeys made at this tournament since 1983, and for the highest margin of victory (10 strokes ahead) with an overall tournament scoring record of 20-under with steady drives and lights-out putting. Gay moves to 7th in Fed Ex Cup standings with this huge win, and has locked in his second PGA win and a tournament record.
