The PGA Tour headed down the coast of California this week and set up shop in Pacific Palisades for the 2014 Northern Trust Open at Riviera Country Club.
And as the first tee shots were launched on the historic and famed course, Titleist was the overwhelming top choice in golf balls with 86 players in the field of 144 trusting a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball for their success, more than four times the nearest competitor with 21.
Titleist was also the favorite in the sand, lob and approach wedge (134) and putter (53) categories.
Check out the slideshow above and see what #TeamTitleist was up to this week.
FAST FACTS: The Northern Trust Open is one of the longest standing events on the PGA Tour. It was first played in 1926 as the Los Angeles Open.
Last year, Titleist Brand Ambassador John Merrick became the first Los Angeles County native to top the leaderboard in the event's history.

Ask any pro and they’ll tell you that one of the most difficult shots in golf is the long bunker shot. Having this shot in your bag can be a difference maker on the scorecard, so we checked in with Titleist Brand Ambassador Brendan Steele for a little help.
A couple of keys according to Brendan… rhythm and turning through the shot. As he explains in the video, you should control the distance of the explosion shot by adjusting the size of your turn, not by changing the speed that you swing your arms and hands.
By letting the big muscles of your core dictate the force of the shot, you can maintain a consistent tempo and it becomes much easier to create consistent contact.
Check out the video above for a step-by-step review with Brendan. Try his line drill and as you practice, adjust your turn to splash the ball different distances.
If you’re able to take the same amount of sand on each shot, you’re well on you way to better bunker play.
In the meantime, let us know what other tips and drills you’d like to see from the tour.

Winning is quickly becoming a habit for Titleist Brand Ambassador Jimmy Walker. Trusting his Pro V1 golf ball and a full bag of Titleist golf clubs, Walker captured his third win of the season over the weekend at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am.
Adding to his Frys.com and Sony Open in Hawaii titles, Walker's win highlighted a sweep for Titleist golf ball players this week on the worldwide professional golf tours.
With this past weekend's success, Titleist golf ball players have now earned 16 victories across the Worldwide Professional Tours in 2014, four times the nearest competitor with 4 and more than all other golf balls combined.
In total, 2,123 players have teed up Titleist golf balls in competition on the 2014 worldwide professional tours, more than five times the nearest competitor with 357 and more than all competitors combined.
Joining Walker in the winner’s circle, Titleist Brand Ambassador George Coetzee fired four consecutive rounds in the 60s to earn his first career European Tour title at the Joburg Open.
On the Champions Tour, Michael Allen birdied the second hole in an all-Pro V1x playoff to prevail at the Allianz Championship.
And at the Victorian PGA Championship, an event co-sponsored by the Asian and Australian PGA Tours, Titleist Brand Ambassador Gareth Paddison trusted his Pro V1x golf ball and a full bag of Titleist golf clubs to birdie the final hole and secure a one-shot victory.
Let's take a trip around the golfing world and review all the action with the Team Titleist Tour Recap.

Jimmy Walker secured his spot atop the leaderboard at Pebble Beach after converting a five-foot putt for par on the final hole. Asked to comment on the pressure of the last putt, Walker joked,
"Just drama, man. It’s good TV..(but) it’s too much for me.” He added that his clinching putt was "the best stroke of the back nine."

I got to share this with my family and my friends. It was my mum's birthday yesterday and I wanted to do it for her as I forgot to buy her a present."

It's a party atmosphere in Phoenix this week and it's a tradition at The Stadium Course TPC Scottsdale for fans to let their hair down and become more...vocal.
And as players prepare for the unique challenge of the boisterous crowd and the need to go low, Titleist is the overwhelming top choice in golf balls at the Waste Management Phoenix Open with 84 players in the field of 132 relying upon a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball, nearly five times the nearest competitor with 17.
Titleist was also the favorite in the sand, lob and approach wedge (114) and putter (45) categories.
Embracing the lively setting will be a key to success this week, as Pro V1x loyalist Bubba Watson revealed in an interviewing following his stellar 7-under-par 64 in the opening round.
“You know, the fans really get into it. When you come here, you have to know and you expect that, expect the jitters, expect the boos, expect the cheers. So I love it. It's our one time to get inside a football stadium basically and have fun.”
Nowhere will the roaring, applauding and heckling be louder than on the 16th hole, a 162-yard par-3 that features one of several man-made amphitheaters from which The Stadium Course derives its name. The hole offers a great chance for birdie and the crowd is always ready to send a cheer that echoes across the course when a solid tee shot is delivered.
It will be birdie or bust this week in the desert, as the winning score at the WM Phoenix Open is typically more than 20 strokes under par.
Check out the video above to get an inside-the-ropes view as Team Titleist caught up with a number of Pro V1 and Pro V1x players earlier in the week, including Titleist Brand Ambassadors Scott Stallings, Matt Jones, Webb Simpson, Marc Leishman, Ben Curtis and Morgan Hoffmann, to name just a few.
