Atlanta, GA (April 17, 2007) – The top three finishers in the 2007 Ginn Open in Orlando this past weekend were all using C- Thru Grips on their clubs.
The 21-year-old winner, playing her USA Stars & Stripes C-Thru Grips, started the final round four shots behind the leader but withstood the tough conditions to triumph at the end of the day. The win was worth $390,000, the third richest purse on tour, advancing her to #2 on the 2007 LPGA official money list. The second place finisher in the Ginn Open, whose uses the Mexico C-Thru Grip, is currently in the lead on the money list. The England C-Thru Grips are used by the 3rd place finisher.
"C-Thru Grips is thrilled with the great results, and our on-site participation at the Ginn Open," said Kim Rippere, President of C-Thru Grips. "The tournament proved to be a wonderful kickoff for our new focus on our expanded women’s line. We have added numerous exciting new layouts which will appeal to the women’s market."
