Fujikura Composites America, Inc. announced today that, according to the Darrell Survey, Fujikura was the #1 Driver Shaft Brand at the following tournament events this past week:
R & A – The Open Championship
PGA Tour – U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee
LPGA Tour – HSBC Women’s World Match Play Championship
Nationwide Tour – Price Cutter Charity Championship
Peter R. Sanchez, President / COO, said, "Winning the Open Championship Driver count is obviously very special. When combined with wins at The Masters and U.S. Open, it really makes a significant statement regarding our design, material and process technologies." Continuing Sanchez said, "On a little bit lighter note, but still very special, our Charter Dealer Kouros Kou in Los Angeles, CA fitted the winner of the Callaway Junior World Cup – girls 11-12 division with a full complement of Fujikura shafts; Rombax 5X07 in her Driver, E350 in the fairways and E380HB in her hybrid. It really goes to show how our product line is able to benefit every level of player."
Pat McCoy, Fujikura’s Tour representative said, "A major win is always special and winning it for the past several years is quite gratifying. This year it was interesting that our new Rombax technology, Speeder models and ultra-light, SIX were almost equally represented in our total count. Having a wide spectrum of shafts represented on the professional tours is really a tribute to our overall philosophy of fitting the individual and not being a one- shaft-wonder company."
Fujikura has been the #1 Wood Shaft Brand on the PGA Tour for the past six years and is the primary supplier to many national brand OEM’s offering both proprietary and brand product shaft designs. Additionally, Fujikura products can be custom fitted through our network of over 900 Charter Dealers. To find a dealer please visit www.fujikuragolf.com.
