Newport Beach, CA – April 16, 2012 – Wearing Kaenon polarized prescription sunglasses, Carl Pettersson won the RBC Heritage by a five stroke margin, finishing the weekend at 14-under. During his winning weekend, Pettersson wore the Kaenon polarized Jetty Black G28 Rx sunglass, which provides complete glare reduction and harmful UV ray protection while remaining lightweight, comfortable and fashionable. Kaenon polarized sunglasses have become the go-to brand for prescription polarized sunglasses, due to the optical accuracy and precision achieved by the company’s SR-91™ lens.
“Ultimately it’s a hand eye coordination sport,” Pettersson said. “Just because you don’t look like an athlete doesn’t mean you’re not an athlete.”
Pettersson began wearing prescription Kaenon polarized sunglasses during tournament play earlier this year. He recently finished second in the Shell Houston Open while wearing the same pair of prescription sunglasses. This weekend marks his fifth PGA Tour win and he hopes to carry the momentum forward into upcoming tournaments.
When it comes to golf sunglasses, pros like Robert Allenby, Brian Gay, Pat Perez, Christina Kim and Sophie Gustafson wear Kaenon polarized sunglasses due to the unmatched clarity, color representation and distortion-free vision that is only be found in Kaenon products. Kaenon’s California-designed and Italian hand-painted sunglass frames offer a fashionable alternative for performance eyewear and are quickly becoming the go-to sunglasses on golf courses around the world.
