Both Rolex Testimonees<br />
since 2016, two of the<br />
golfers making up the<br />
European contingent<br />
of the New Guard are<br />
Englishman Matthew<br />
Fitzpatrick and Spain’s<br />
Jon Rahm. Following his<br />
second win on the<br />
European Tour in 2017,<br />
both of which were<br />
Rolex Series events,<br />
Rahm said: “To win two<br />
of the European Tour’s<br />
Rolex Series events as a<br />
Rolex Ambassador has<br />
made these victories<br />
that much more<br />
special.”<br />
The European Tour, a<br />
partner of Rolex since<br />
1995, introduced the<br />
Rolex Series in 2017, an<br />
initiative four-time<br />
European Tour event<br />
winner Matthew<br />
Fitzpatrick commends:<br />
“The Rolex Series<br />
highlights Rolex’s<br />
continued<br />
commitment to our<br />
game and has been<br />
an exceptional<br />
addition to the season,<br />
enabling both<br />
European Tour players<br />
and fans to enjoy an<br />
elevated level of golf,<br />
closer to home.”<br />
Along with Fitzpatrick<br />
and Rahm, 26-year-old<br />
Thomas Pieters, from<br />
Belgium, is another<br />
European counterpart<br />
who made a name for<br />
himself at the 2016<br />
Ryder Cup when he set<br />
a new rookie record for<br />
points earned.<br />
Rahm is sure to play an<br />
integral role in The 2018<br />
European Ryder Cup<br />
Team, the esteemed<br />
event founded in 1927<br />
that Rolex has been a<br />
partner of, when in<br />
Europe, since 1995.
