Brentwood, Tenn., – Softspikes® notched up its 17th win of the year on The PGA Tour on Sunday at The Zurich Classic of New Orleans, with both members of the victorious Irish duo trusting Softspikes to power them to victory.
Following a final hole birdie and a round 4 under par 68, the Irish duo secured their place in a playoff in which they prevailed after their opponents failed to make par at the 1st extra hole. The World No.2 was wearing Metal Stinger spikes in his Nike shoes and the 2019 Open Champion was in his trusted FootJoy and Tour Flex Pro setup.
On the DP World Tour, at the ISPS Handa Championship Japan it was another win for players equipped with spikes as the champion walked away with the title wearing Softspikes in his adidas shoes. In Los Angeles, at the LPGA Tour’s JM Eagle LA Championship, it was back-to-back titles for the Australian winner who was wearing a combo of Tour Flex Pro & Tornado spikes in her Nike golf shoes.
“Sunday in New Orleans was a fantastic showcase for the game of golf, and we were delighted to have both of the winning team members wearing Softspikes to bring up our 17th PGA Tour win in 19 events this year,” commented Joe Henderson, President, Softspikes. “Additional wins for players trusting replaceable traction on the DP World Tour, LPGA Tour and Korn Ferry Tour were also especially pleasing to see.”
Tour players change grips and traction regularly based on course conditions, but amateur golfers rarely think about the impact wearing spikes has on consistency and distance. To achieve optimal performance benefits, golfers should be switching up their spikes every 15 rounds.
