NEWPORT BEACH, CALIF. (February 19, 2007) — In a dramatic three hole playoff Sunday, Charles Howell III defeated Phil Mickelson to win the Nissan Open for his 2nd PGA tour career win. Howell is currently number one on the money list and has been a long time wearer of the stress-reducing pendant. Howell had just begun wearing the pendant when he won his first PGA tour event at the Michelob Championship at Kingsmill.
""I first started wearing the Q-Link in June of 2002. I shortly won the Michelob Championship at Kingsmill thereafter in October, and it hasn’t come off since," says Howell, "I absolutely know that the Q-Link will help you and everyone else out there with their golf games."
The Q-Link pendant has been worn by more than 300 touring golf professionals and has been involved in more than 125 victories worldwide. PGA Tour players in addition to Howell who used Q-Link products in ’06 include Chris DiMarco, Justin Rose, Brian Gay, Tom Pernice, Jr. , Marco Dawson, Greg Chalmers, Ted Purdy, Lee Janzen, Camilo Villegas, Jeff Brehaut, Tim Petrovic, and many more. Among the world-class golfers using Q-Link products on the LPGA is Lorena Ochoa, the 2006 LPGA Player of the Year. Brittany Lincicome, a rising LPGA star, will wear Q-Link products on Tour this season.
"We congratulate Charles on this victory and on his incredible career," says John Allan, President, Q-Link USA. "He is a long time believer in the stress-reducing benefits of the Q-Link and its ability to help golfers of all levels enhance their golf games. His victory kicks off what we know will be an exciting year as we launch our new bracelet line."
People who wear the Q-Link report a wide range of benefits in their personal and professional lives including higher energy, the ability to think more clearly, increased awareness, calmness, better sleep, enhanced mental focus, stamina and vitality.
For golfers, these benefits produce an active edge that contributes to better course management and the ability to perform – especially under competitive stress. The results: more good shots, fewer bad shots, a faster ability to return to a centered emotional state and lower golf scores.
