Rory Mcilroy just got the most exclusive monitor of Golf

It turns out that a jacket was not the only green item Rory Mcilroy taken for Masters profit last month.

At the PGA Championship this week, Mcilroy traded in his Trackman 4 Monitor Launch That he has been used for 10 years and took a new unit with a green cover again.

What is so special for the green cover? As you can guess, given the time of trade, the green cover is reserved only for the winners of the Masters, and Mcilroy’s is just the eighth trackman in existence that is not orange.

Lance Vinson, the director of the US tour and the commitment of elite players, told Golf that it is a very new tradition for the company. The first green Trackman surrendered to 2020 Champion Masters Dustin Johnson In the masters of 2021 after some people in Trackman came up with the idea of ​​honoring the second DJ adult.

“It is a kind of a kind of tradition since then for the Trackman customers that they have the option, and we will trade orange for green,” Vinson said. “Obvious is definitely part of the uniqueness as it is the only trackman that is not orange, and there is only one way to get it.”

Green Trackman has become so elusive as the earlier winners of the masters before 2020, such as Adam Scott, Patrick Reed, Danny Willett and even the 1987 Larry Mize winner, have sought the green version.

It is probably one of the least popular benefits to win the masters and it’s something players get buzzing.

“With Rory’s victory and then we start hearing from his camp how excited he is to get him,” Vinson said. “So that part of it has now become a thing familiar with the players of,” Man, I want to get that Trackman Green, “or,” I will win the masters. “

Incidentally, every winner of the masters after Dustin Johnson has been a Trackman customer, which means they have actually bought a unit from the company. Tournament professionals also have to pay for a Trackman 4 unit, which starts at $ 22,495, but the company says they get a slight discount in exchange for their name, image and similarity in marketing and promotional materials.

When a player wins the masters and wants to get Trackman Green, it is not as simple as replacing the orange lid with a green. The facial plates are not interchangeable. But players do not have to pay for the green unit; Trackman sees him as a trade with players who give up their old units in return.

But how accurate and required as they are, do they ever ask that something is a little different about the new green units compared to the orange ones? Vinson said he actually worries about him more than them.

“We are probably more prejudiced than the players,” he said. “When we did Scottie, it’s like,” man, this boy is in an absolute heater. Will he want to change his unit he has bought and believed for all these years? “

“And no problem, it’s like ‘yes, oh man! That’s really cute, I forgot that the boys did it,” and you know, then the rest is story. “
