Nike Athlete Hao-Tong Li is Creating a Stir in China

(RELEASE) - Nike Golf athlete Hao-Tong Li is making a lot of noise on the China PGA Tour. At the age of 19, he won his third professional title at the China PGA Tour Hainan Open last week, and took over the No. 1 spot on the Order of Merit. This six-stroke victory assured him a membership on the 2015 Web.com Tour, making him the first Chinese athlete to become a member of the U.S.-based Tour.

Assisting him to victory was his Nike Vapor Pro driver, which he used during his three wins in the last two months. The Vapor Pro driver blends three key technologies: Nike’s new FlyBeam reinforced Covert Cavity Back design, a re-engineered Compression Channel and FlexLoft 2. All are vital to the golf athlete to achieve the ultimate in hitting their window of distance, speed and launch conditions.

The newest addition to Li's bag was his Nike Vapor Pro irons (6-9) featuring the distinctive Modern Muscle technology, which balances weighting for perfected precision and power.

Li played with 14 Nike clubs in his bag, including the new Nike Vapor Speed 3-wood (15 degree) and the Nike RZN Black ball. On the body, Li also sported apparel from Nike Golf’s Performance Collection and the Lunar Control II shoe.
