Why Justin Rose’s New Equipment Deal With Axis1 Golf Is So Unique

By JONATHAN WALL, Golf.com

The last time Justin Rose hoisted a PGA Tour trophy, it was one year ago at the Famers Insurance Open, which just happened to come a week after the former U.S. Open champion inserted a bag full of Honma gear and Axis1 Golf’s putter.

Rose returns to Torrey Pines with new Honma gear in the bag, along with an official agreement to continue using the Axis1 Rose putter he helped develop going forward, the putter manufacturer announced on Monday.

“I had great success using the Axis1 last year and am excited to partner with the most innovative brand in the field,” said Rose. “While helping to create this putter, I saw the technology that sets it apart from the rest and I believe it can revolutionize the market.”
