Leading designer of golf-inspired lifestyle sportswear and golf apparel, Ashworth Inc announced that Team Ashworth member Chris DiMarco shot a 5-under 67 Sunday to overtake third-round leader Henrik Stenson and win the Abu Dhabi Golf Championship in ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates.
DiMarco, 37, is a member of Team Ashworth, a roster of tour pros led by Team Captain and CBS broadcaster Jim Nantz and including Fred Couples, Stuart Appleby, Rich Beem, and Steve Flesch. Team Ashworth pros wear Ashworth brand apparel.
DiMarco picked up three shots on the first two holes of the day, with a birdie at the opening hole and then followed up with a spectacular eagle on the par-5 second.
DiMarco finished with a par on the 18th hole to win the tournament by one stroke over Henrik Stenson.
"This is four years to the month that He has not been in the winner's circle," DiMarco said.
"He just played good, solid golf all week."
Chris Demirjian, Director of Sports Marketing, commented, "It was great to see DiMarco in the winner's circle again; he's been so close in the past few years with being runner up in the 05 Masters and 04 PGA Championship.
This victory was long overdue and is a great way for DiMarco to start the Tour Season off."
Randall L Herrel, Sr, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Congratulations to Chris DiMarco from everyone at Ashworth on this victory.
It's a great start for Global Team Ashworth with Appleby's win at The Mercedes and DiMarco's win over the weekend."
