HA NOI (VNS) — The Bluffs Ho Tram Strip has signed a three-year partnership agreement with two-time European Tour winner Robert Rock to become its brand ambassador and touring professional.

The deal marks the first time in history that a Vietnamese course has sponsored a touring pro of such calibre.

Rock, who finished in the top 10 at the Tshwane Open in South Africa earlier this month, will wear polo shirts emblazoned with a Ho Tram Strip-affiliated logo during any event he plays in through the 2017 season.

He will also make at least three promotional visits to The Bluffs Ho Tram Strip, a course GOLF Magazine (USA edition) hailed in January as one of the best to open in 2014.

Rock's most impressive victory was at the 2012 Abu Dhabi Championship where he shot a final-round 70 to beat Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. — VNS
