Scratch Wedges Earn First Euro Top Ten with Tie for 7th at Club de Golf Masia Bach
Eugene, OR, June 20, 2007 – Scratch Golf (www.scratchgolf.com) earned a top ten on the European LPGA Tour at the prestigious "Catalonia Ladies Masters" which was held last weekend at Club de Golf Masia Bach. European Ladies Tour veteran Asa Gottmo used a Scratch Golf "JLM Series" 58 degree SFU grind en route to her tie for 7th place. This finish was Gottmo’s best of the year on Tour.
"Asa Gottmo really likes her Scratch Golf wedge," stated Anders Dahlen, President of Flog & Birdie Sports of Stockholm. Flog & Birdie is the exclusive distributor of Scratch Golf products in Sweden. "In fact, we have made up 52 and 54 degree Scratch Golf wedges for Asa and will get them to her the next time she is back home here in Stockholm. What she likes is the solid contact she gets from hitting a grind which matches her swing. She also loves the feel which is derived from the soft 1018 Carbon forgings. These wedges are truly special. There is nothing else comparable in golf."
About Scratch Golf
Scratch Golf is a premium golf equipment manufacturer dedicated to providing golfers with wedges available in an unprecedented five different grind options. Having made over 3,000 custom wedges, Scratch Golf was able to create a simple system whereby golfers can match their swing characteristics to the right grind for them. Further, Scratch Golf wedges offer outstanding "feel" due to the use of truly forged 1018 Soft Carbon Steel in the Scratch Golf manufacturing process. While many other golf companies offer products that are "form forged" (or a combination of cast and forged that they call forged), Scratch Golf insists on providing wedges that offer the precise grain patterns and feel that only a truly forged golf club can provide.
Scratch Golf’s Tour Department has built wedges for many players on various PGA Tours. In 2006 Scratch Golf has become the fastest growing wedge on the PGA Tours and earned numerous top tens, including a top ten at the prestigious 2006 PGA Nationwide Tour Championship. At the 2006 PGA Tour Q-School qualifying tournament, Scratch Golf wedges were used to earn a tie for 8th place, which provided that golfer with exempt status on the PGA Tour for 2007.
Scratch Golf wedges were also in the bag of the 2006 U.S. Boys Junior Amateur Champion in July of 2006 and a 54-degree Scratch Golf wedge was used by that champion to hole out from 104-yards in the final round of the Junior Am. Both the Boys and Girls 2006 Junior Amateur "Players of the Year" used Scratch Golf wedges.
