Nike posts picture of 5 new faces ~ STANLEY, WATNEY, OLESEN, NOH . More to come tonight - BAGS POSTE

[ethanlculver]

Fifth guy is world no 50 Thorbjoern Olesen

 

I guess it could be.

 

[Barto78]

His Twitter page hasn't been updated as it still shows him with Ecco, Galvin Green and Srixon, but folks on his FB page were congratulating him on his contract with Nike.

It appears the internet detectives have stricken again!

[dale4ace]

Finished T27th at the PGA Championship this year and was T9 at the Open.

[ethanlculver]

Played with Tiger on Saturday in last year's British Open.

[ethanlculver]

Is Duval really going back to Nike or not? I don't think they'd leave him out of this image if so.

[shakey]

^^^^Duval is back playing the clubs, but nothing had been formalized last time I talked to my rep about it.

[FutureScratchGolfer]

Incredible work on the last guy. Seems like a talented kid on the upswing, just like everyone Nike signed this off-season.

Do we know if Stanley went with the performance or the tour version yet? I see a lot of love for the performance driver from the players, I'm a little shocked by that. I had my mind set on the tour but I might have to give them both a try and see what I like better.
[/quote]
If you watch the new youtube videos introducing both guys, it looks like Stanley was hitting the Tour version and Watney was hitting the Performance version. Doesn't mean thats what they will actually play though.

hes got the performance in play

[color=#282828]Stanly- Watney - Mcilroy- Noh- Luke List.[/color]

Whats the discussion about ?

[Frankensteins Monster]

Nike's photo editing department needs to be fired. Earrings on Olesen and a patch on job for Watney's hat are grounds to be dismissed.

I think the new recruits should be titled The Walking Dead. That's what they all look like in these photos.

They're staring at Rory's contract.

BTW, not to thread jack, but Elin Nordegren has the most famous iron shot of the last ten years.
How come she never got a deal?

She got quite the contract on the way out.. Haha

I'm just surprised "big brother" tiger isn't included in any of these images. He's always been the face of Nike golf, figured he'd appear with the new staffers. Like a big...expensive family.

[Frankensteins Monster]

It's the new breed so he shouldn't be on there. But it would have been funny if they did a Soprano's like theme and had him as Tony.

[Frankensteins Monster]

Ok Nike, I took the liberty and created you your new ad campagin.

[kharmon]

more announcements from Nike expected later tonight....

DD is back to NIKE Golf. He's playing the VRS Covert driver, VR Pro Blades, wedges and new 20XI X ball. Official announcement coming tonight. Not sure if DD's image will be one of the "big 5" though.

[skaarsgard]

a little late to the thread but earlier on (before Noh was suggested) in this thread where people were asking who number 4 was, Louis Oosthuizen seemed like the silhouette and nobody suggested it

She used a Titleist club from days gone bye. His agent would not allow advertisement for the competition.

[hogans71]
