SAN DIEGO — Providing comfort and tour-proven stability and traction, Lamkin grips excelled on the world stage and captured victories at two of golf’s most time-honored tournaments — Senior British Open and the Evian Masters.
The winner of the first three Champions Tour events this season, this weekend’s champion won a sudden death playoff by sinking a 12-foot putt with Lamkin leather to capture the Senior British Open at The Westin Turnberry Resort in Ayrshire, Scotland. Meanwhile, across the English Channel in Evian-Les-Bains, France, Lamkin grips dealt another victory at one of the most prestigious tournament titles in women’s golf — the Evian Masters. The champion of the LPGA event played Lamkin Crossline grips to win her third event of the year.
"This weekend’s multiple tour wins has generated a lot of excitement. As America’s oldest grip manufacturer, we’ve spent more than 80 years providing golfers with the industry’s finest and most innovative grips," says Bob Lamkin, president and CEO of the Lamkin Corporation, "and our winning performance on the pro tours around the world has clearly defined Lamkin as one of the most successful grips in the history of the game."
From the popular Crossline to the new Dual Density Torsion Control, Lamkin grips provide the right feel for any player. The Crossline series, for example, features a distinctive pattern designed to increase hand traction while the latest grip for 2006, the Dual Density Torsion Control, offers a softer, tacky surface layer and innovative stabilizing bars that reduce torque and increase club control.
For more than 80 years, Lamkin has been the chosen grip supplier for nearly every major golf club manufacturer and the preferred grip of professional golfers worldwide. For more information on Lamkin or Lamkin products, call 800.642.7755 or visit www.lamkingrips.com.
