    Masters Tournament Pre-Event Press Release

    PRESS RELEASE 20 YEARS OF ROLEX AND THE MASTERS TOURNAMENT Geneva, Switzerland, Tuesday, 02 April 2019 – As the freshly blooming azaleas of Augusta National Golf Club mark the arrival of the northern spring, the golfing world’s attention turns towards Georgia, USA, for the first men’s Major of the year – the Masters Tournament, which has been supported by Rolex since 1999. For more than 50 years Rolex has forged one of the most enduring partnerships between a brand and sport, based on a commitment to excellence in everything they do. Central to this relationship is Rolex’s long-standing support for men’s and women’s Majors. For two decades, Rolex has shown its unwavering commitment to Augusta National Golf Club and its famed fairways. In 2019, the 83rd edition of this most prestigious event marks the 20th anniversary of Rolex Testimonee José María Olazábal winning the title for a second time. It is also 25 years since the Spaniard claimed his first Masters win in 1994. Olazábal’s win in 1999 capped a period of sustained success for European players at Augusta National. Including 1999, eight of the previous 12 Masters Tournaments had been won by Europeans, among them, fellow Rolex Testimonee Bernhard Langer, also a two-time champion. ROLEX new guard As former champions, both will line up alongside the modern marvels of the game, including Jon Rahm, another Testimonee and a countryman of Olazábal, who enjoyed a rich run of form at the 2018 Masters. The 24-year-old demonstrated his precocious talent by finishing fourth in just his second start at Augusta National Golf Club.
