Impressive Victory by Cillegas

Cobra Golf Equipment Brand Ambassador Camilo Villegas secured an impressive victory at the Honda Classic to capture his third career PGA Tour victory. The Colombian carded a final round 68 to finish 13-under par, five strokes clear of his nearest competitor. The stylish Villegas impressed throughout the week with a controlled display of power and precision, showcasing his long, straight driving and imperious iron play to overpower his rivals. Camillo Villegas Among the equipment trusted by Villegas was the Cobra S9-1 Pro S driver and Pro CB irons, and with an average driving distance of 300 yards and a stroke average of 67 for the season so far, the Colombian truly believes in the equipment driving him up the World Golf Rankings (12th).

This week's victory caps a phenomenal start to the season for the Colombian, who has finished inside the top ten in each of his previous two events. Villegas' victory at PGA National also caps an impressive couple of weeks for Cobra, following Ian Poulter's recent victory at the WGC Accenture Match-Play Championship. Poulter trusted the new Cobra ZL Driver for his first World Golf Championship title, benefiting from the Advanced Multi-Material Construction and Adjustable Flight Technology that offers all golfers the ability to optimise their ball flight for maximum distance, accuracy and forgiveness.

Cobra ZL Driver On Trial

The new Cobra ZL Driver is being tested by many of the Cobra Staff players at present. The new driver is anticipated to be released either towards the end of this year or at the beginning of next year.

The Cobra ZL driver has a titanium face and body, but the crown is made from the lightweight carbon fiber. A weight plug--which is not adjustable has been put toward the back of the club to increase the moi, of course if you lower the centre of gravity and create a higher initial launch angle. Using an included torque wrench, the ZL driver will allow golfers to set the head into one of three different face angles – 1° open, square or 1° closed.
