The Cincinnati Masters kicks off next week, and the tournament's official social media pages unveiled an ostentatious makeover of the trophy for this year's edition.
The Rockwood Cup, designed by Rockwood Pottery Company since 2010, has undergone transformation changes in its design . In fact, the company has a long history with the Western & Southern Open, dating back to 1899 when it handed gift sets to the tournament champions.

The previous look featured the Rookwood Pottery and Western & Southern Open logos on the front of the trophy. Painting works usually took two and a half days of meticulous precision and was done in-house by an experienced Rockwood artist.
