SAN DIEGO — The world’s oldest grip manufacturer, Lamkin once again displayed the value of innovative engineering and superior grip design with another international victory. Lamkin Crossline grips — the most winning grip in the company’s 80-year history — provided the needed traction, comfort and stability to win the inaugural Dubai Ladies Masters with a dominating six-shot margin of victory at the Emirates Golf Club.
The Dubai Ladies Masters was the final event of the 2006 season on the Ladies European Tour, and this year’s champion held a firm grip on the win, shooting 18-under-par 270 and setting a course record 65 in the first round playing Lamkin Crossline grips.
"Providing tour-winning traction and stability, Lamkin Crossline grips have dominated many pro women events around the world, including major events on the LPGA Tour this year," says Bob Lamkin, president and CEO of the Lamkin Corporation. "We’ve spent more than 80 years providing golfers with the finest premium quality grips in the industry, and our international and major victories this year have solidified Lamkin’s position as the grip industry’s true innovator more than ever before."
Golf’s most recognized grip pattern, the Lamkin Crossline grip features a proprietary M2 rubber compound that adds tack and durability while the distinctive pattern increases hand-traction and reduces torque for ultimate performance. The Crossline pattern is available on a variety of models, including full cord, mid-size, jumbo, ladies and junior. In the Crossline cord models, soft cord fabric is strategically positioned throughout the grip, adding maximum traction for all-weather conditions.
Lamkin Corporation has been the chosen grip supplier for nearly every major golf club manufacturer and the preferred grip of professional golfers worldwide. For more than 80 years, Lamkin grips have provided the stability, traction and comfort necessary for optimal performance in all playing conditions.
