ITASCA, IL. – May 1, 2006 – The Excel Golf Tee Company announced today that Zero Friction Golf Teesï?”, the "Winningest" performance golf tee on the PGA Tour, enjoyed its first LPGA victory at the inaugural Ginn Club & Resorts Open in Orlando, Florida.
Excel Golf Tees, the parent company of Zero Friction Golf Tees, is celebrating its first full year on the PGA Tour and how appropriate, Zero Friction Golf Tees expand their presence onto the Women’s Tour on the same week and claim its first LPGA win.
"This is a very special victory for Zero Friction Golf Tees, not only did they help an inspiring LPGA Professional capture her sixth victory but it validates the performance of the three prong system for an entirely new audience. We at Excel know that any golfer, a professional or average golfer, will play better golf by using a Zero Friction Golf Tees. The results speak for themselves," says Mike Herron, Business Development Manager for Excel Golf Tee, Inc.
The Palmer and Watson courses lived up to their names. The Legacy and Independence lived on and those who played their own game succeeded. The heavy heart of four winless seasons was fittingly replaced with the weight of a heavy trophy thanks to a terrific twenty-five foot putt on seventeen, great course management, guts, and some help from Zero Friction Golf Tees.
The Zero Friction Golf Tee significantly reduces the contact area between the golf ball and the tee. At impact, this small degree of contact reduction or resistance results in increased accuracy and distance. In an independent laboratory Zero Friction Golf Tees were proven to be the longest and most accurate tee used on Tour. A new, longer, 3-¼ inch Zero Friction Golf Tee is now is available and not only for the Professionals but for every golfer.
"Now, Zero Friction Golf Tees has validated itself on the PGA, Nationwide, LDA, and now on the LPGA and not to mention, with the largest purse on the LPGA," adds Herron.
The Zero Friction Golf Tee is the Official Golf Tee of the Long Drivers of America Association and the Exclusive Golf Tee of the RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship. The company also recently signed long-driving legend Sean "The Beast" Fister to use and endorse the company’s revolutionary Zero Friction Golf Tee.
Golfers on the major professional tours use Zero Friction’s unique three-pronged teeing system to gain invaluable extra distance and to win thirteen tournaments. Nine of the victories came on the PGA Tour, three on the Nationwide Tour and one on the LPGA.
