Nike announces ONE RZN golf ball
Nike Golf has unvelied the new ONE RZN and ONE RZN X golf balls, utlising RZN Tour Performance Technology
Nike Golf has introduced the ONE RZN golf ball, bringing RZN Tour Performance Technology to the amateur game.
ONE RZN utilises a slight variant of the RZN core found in the Nike 20XI tour ball, creating revolutionary distance for players of all abilities. RZN - which replaces conventional rubber cores with a revolutionary new material - is a highly neutralised polymer engineered to produce longer distance and more controlled shots.
The technology ensures more distance from the tee, a straighter ball flight and increased control around the greens.
The enhancements made to pre-existing RZN technology include an increased core size and added RZN mantel, which facilitates longer iron shots whilst providing a softer short game feel.
"With ONE RZN, we are able to bring revolutionary advances in golf balls to a wider range of athletes," said Rock Ishii, Nike Golf's Product Development Director for golf balls.
"There's not a product out there in this category of golf ball that has technology of this magnitude."
ONE RZN will be available in two models; the ONE RZN and the ONE RZN X - designed for a player with a fast head speed or steep angle of attack into the ball.
