His record-equalling 10-under 62 on Satuday had edged him ahead of the pack, and he added a brilliant 66 on Sunday to claim his maiden title on the European Tour. The 24-year-old was joined in the winners’ circle by four others this weekend who claimed victories on the LPGA, PGA Tour Champions, Asian Tour and Korean Tour to mark another winning weekend for the brand..

Hatton posted seven birdies in his final round as he cruised to a four shot win on The Old Course, marking the 22^nd victory for Titleist golf ball loyalists on the 2015-16 European Tour schedule. After firing 67-70 over Carnoustie and Kingsbarns, Hatton shot to the top of the leaderboard with his course-record equalling 62 on Saturday before posting a tournament equalling winning total of 23-under par. Titleist was also the top choice in golf balls in Scotland, with 108 players putting their trust in the Pro V1 or Pro V1x, compared to 22 for the nearest competitor. The champion also relied upon Vokey Design SM6 gap, sand and lob wedges for his success.

On the PGA Tour Champions, it was an all-Titleist golf ball play-off at the Toshiba Classic, where Titleist Brand Ambassador Jay Haas (Pro V1) secured his 18^th PGA Tour Champions victory.
