Bubba: "I'm ball-free."
/
It's still shocking to wrap our collective brains around Dave Roberts' decision to start I mean, the demise of Bubba Watson's much-vaunted moved to multi-colored Volvik golf balls, but at least we can enjoy his explanation. From David Dusek's item at Golfweek:
“My contract is done with Volvik,” the two-time Masters champion said. “I do not have a ball deal as we sit here today. So I can play with whatever ball I want to. My deal was up, and so I’m ball-free. So I don’t have a ball deal. … I’m just going to go back to what I grew up with, so I’m playing Titleist.”
"I was naturally intrigued by the colors Volvik offers,” said Watson. “Then I started testing the ball and saw what I could do with it. It does everything I want it to: go high, go low, curve, spin and it has the distance I’m looking for. I’m always trying to find new ways to grow the game and have fun out there and Volvik’s approach is the same. I couldn’t be more excited to have a colorful start to the year with Volvik!"
