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.

Davis Love, III playing in Hard Kore Black G28 ended up the top Kaenon player finishing 11th. While he provided solid, quality exposure all four rounds, it was Rod Pampling playing in Arlo Matte Black G12 Rx who made much noise and an attempt at victory. He played with Tiger in the final group Saturday and was still top 5 and in position to win Sunday. However, he hit the wall and shot a high number only to tumble down the leader board. British Open in 2 weeks.

It was a big win – for many reasons – for Brian Gay AND Kaenon Polarized. And it appears the golf magazines agree…Here’s last week’s Golf Week cover celebrating his victory and showcasing Kaenon Polarized sunglasses.

Kaenon also had great recognition and airtime with Aaron Watkins in Hard Kore, Rod Pampling in Arlo Rx, and you’ll see below, with Morgan Pressel performing in new Georgia Olive Crystal.

It’s a testament to any brand, when the product truly speaks for itself. Catching the interest of elite athletes worldwide, including many on the PGA Tour, Kaenon Polarized has quickly become a favorite with professional golfers on and off the greens, and touted by pros and ams alike as the best golfing sunglasses available.

Pairing various styles and lens tints to perfect their game, last week’s Accenture Match Play Championship in Tucson, AZ hosted Davis Love, III (Hard Kore G28), Rod Pampling (Hard Kore G28 Rx), and Robert Allenby (Hard Kore C50) among others. While the competition heated up with the well hyped return of Tiger at this event, the Mayakoba Golf Classic in Riviera Maya, Mexico displayed some strong contingencies as well. Brian Gay won this tournament last year wearing Basis G12 to seal his first PGA Tour victory. This year he can be seen wearing Hard Kore Black G12, Chez Reavie swapping between Hard Kore G28 and C28, Aaron Watkins (Hard Kore Tobacco C28), Notah Begay, III has been wearing both Gauge Walnut C28 and Hard Kore Tobacco C50 and C28, and Robert Gamez in Spindle S1 G28.
