Camilo Visits Golf Town

Titleist ball loyalist Camilo Villegas visited Golf Town Mississauga in front of an engergetic crowd eager to ask him their questions.

Newmarket, ON (July 22, 2009) - Titleist ball loyalist Camilo Villegas visited Golf Town Mississauga in front of an energetic crowd on Tuesday before taking on the field at Glen Abbey Golf Club. 

 

Emcee, Bob Weeks from Score Golf had both the crowd and Camilo laughing a number of times throughout the event. For the hundreds in attendance, Camilo answered a number of unique questions that ranged from his time growing up as a junior golfer in Colombia to his patented "Spider" pose used when lining up seemingly flat putts. Camilo found humor in the close resemblance the "Spider" pose had to Bob's curling stance after a full demonstration to the crowd. Of course, curling was not exactly something Camilo was familiar with growing up in Colombia. The loyal fans who came out were not disappointed as Camilo was happy to chat, sign autographs and pose for pictures throughout the day. Titleist wishes Camilo best of luck at the RBC Canadian Open this week.

 

 

The 3:00PM start time didn't stop loyal fans from waiting in line as early a noon to make sure they gained access to the autograph session.

As the number 12 ranked player in the world at 27, Camilo attracts a wide range of fans anywhere he goes. Here is a group of future PGA Tour hopefuls getting some quick tips from Camilo.

 

 

Camilo explains to Bob Weeks why he chooses to play Pro V1.  Citing that the feel and control off the tee for his swing and equipment was optimized with Pro V1 even though he was able to hit Pro V1x slightly further.
