British golfer Aaron Rai beat favourite Tommy Fleetwood in a playoff to clinch the Scottish Open Trophy, the second win of Aaron’s career on the European Tour. Aaron wore his signature MacWet Golf Gloves on both hands throughout all rounds including in Storm Alex in conditions Ian Poulter described as “the worst weather in his career”.

Glenmuir own and distribute the MacWet golf collection. The MacWet golf glove uses a truly revolutionary and unique technology to provide outstanding grip whilst maintaining feel and sensitivity in all weather conditions at the very highest level of the game. They are sold in pairs which is unique in the golf industry and something Aaron has used to his advantage since the age of 8.

Aaron Rai commented after his victory, “The Macwet gloves were excellent in the wet and challenging conditions that we faced at the Scottish Open. Even in heavy rain, the gloves provided me with grip and feel in my hands which helped to enable me to compete.”

Mikhel Ruia, Glenmuir & MacWet Golf’s Managing Director commented, “All of the Glenmuir MacWet team are extremely proud of Aaron’s victory which is made that much more special given it was the Scottish Open here on home soil. Aaron’s win at The Renaissance Club is a mere 50 miles from our factory here in Lanark and is a further testament to the unrivalled performance of our MacWet premium rain golf glove which was tested to its limits in heavy Scottish rain which Aaron battled all week.”
