NAKASHIMA GOLF’S NP-1 460cc DRIVER EARNS VICTORIES IN TWO TOP IRISH AMATEUR EVENTS: EAST AND SOUTH AMATEUR OPENS
Stockton, CA, September 19, 2005 — Nakashima Golf (www.nakashimagolf.com) confirmed today that its Nakashima NP-1 460cc driver was in the bag of the winner of the East of Ireland and South of Ireland national amateur championships. The East of Ireland Championship was held in mid-June and the South of Ireland Championship was held in July. Jim Carvill, a former European Tour professional who reclaimed his amateur status in February of 2005, used the Nakashima NP-1 460cc en route to victories in the only two top Ireland Amateur tournaments he entered (the others are the North of Ireland and the West of Ireland). Before turning professional in 1990, Carvill played as an amateur with several great Irish players including Darren McGinley, Garth McGimpsey, Mark Gannon and current European PGA Tour star Darren Clarke, who defeated Carvill to win the South of Ireland championship back in 1990.
“We are thrilled that Jim Carvill chose to use a Nakashima driver on his way to these two victories in what are two of Ireland’s four ‘major’ championships,” Nakashima vice-president of Sales and Marketing Scott Son observed. “Our thanks and our congratulations go out to Jim for his victory and for choosing to compete with our Nakashima NP-1 460cc driver. We wish him continued success in his amateur career.”
