DuPont and Nike have joined forces to produce the 20XI, a next-generation golf ball. Instead of a traditional rubber core, the 20XI has a new thermoplastic resin core. Its resin core technology makes the ball lighter and allows it to go the distance off the tee. It also provides more control on the greens.

Find out more in this YouTube video, which features Tiger Woods, Michelle Wie, Paul Casey and several other top golfers as well as Nike designer Rock Ishii.  You can also visit the Nike 20XI website to find out more about this ball.
