Ponte Vedra Beach, FL (July 25, 2008) – Jim Furyk, Tour ambassador for ProQuip Weatherwear, prevailed through the harshest weather conditions seen in tour competition for a decade, finishing in the Top 5 at The British Open while staying dry wearing the world’s leader in technical outerwear.
Furyk donned ProQuip’s innovative Silk Touch rain suit during the rainy, cold and blustery early rounds of The Open Championship. His legendary caddie, Fluff Cowan, wore ProQuip’s Ultralite II rainsuit during the inclement weather.
It was Furyk’s 6th Top 10 finish on Tour this year, which moved him up to 4th in Ryder Cup Team standings for the biennial event to be played in September at Valhalla Golf Club.
