While Dustin Johnson and Jon Rahm were playing 18 holes to determine a champion at the WGC-Dell Match Play, the celebration was likely already starting at the TaylorMade offices in Carlsbad, California.
With DJ one of their more accomplished and recognizable golfers, and Rahm one of their hot up-and-comers, the match became somewhat of an 18-hole advertisement for TaylorMade/Adidas golf. Johnson ultimately got the victory, a 1-up win over Rahm, but for the men and women in Carlsbad, it was win-win.
