“Our intent with this project is to prove that adidas Golf ClimaCool and ClimaProof apparel stands up against the most extreme golf conditions and allows golfers to perform at their best regardless of what Mother Nature throws at them,” said John Kawaja, executive vice president of adidas Golf. “The Tour players who wear our products believe adidas Golf apparel provides a competitive advantage. Our mission is to demonstrate that advantage in a really compelling way.”
The Southern Hemisphere journey takes Knowlton and Sullivan to the following exotic destinations (clothing they will wear is in brackets):
*Furnace Creek, California – World's lowest-elevation golf course, 214 ft below sea level, (ClimaCool).
*LaPaz, Bolivia – World's highest-elevation golf course at 10,800 ft above sea level, (ClimaCool, ClimaLite and Formotion women's wear).
Ushuaia, Argentina – World's southern-most 18-hole golf course (ClimaCool, ClimaLite and Formotion)
*Walker Bay Golf Resort, South Africa – Africa’s southern-most golf course (ClimaCool, ClimaLite).
Alice Springs, Australia – World’s hottest golf course with temperatures in excess of 122 degrees F(50 C)(ClimaCool and Formotion).
In each region, play with adidas Tour professionals including Andres Romero and Nathan Green and experience local cultures. They will also teach golf to Aborigines and participate in thrill-seeking adventures in cage diving with sharks in South Africa and mountain biking through Bolivia’s 'Death Road.'
