(Vista, CA – August 12, 2008) Fujikura won the Driver Shaft Brand count at the U.S. Women’s Amateur, beating its next two leading competitors combined.
“This is a great accomplishment for Fujikura because the amateur golfer is in the unique position to make her own independent and educated decision about the shafts she plays,” says David Schnider, Fujikura President/COO. “This U.S. amateur win continues to validate that these accomplished players trust the performance of our shafts in the most demanding competitions.”
The brand has captured the Driver Shaft Brand leadership position at every 2008 major championship, including The Masters, U.S. Men’s Open, The Open Championship, PGA Championship, U.S. Women’s Open, LPGA Championship, Kraft Nabisco Championship, The Ricoh Women’s British Open, the U.S. Senior Open, Senior British Open and the Senior PGA Championship.
Fujikura was the #1 Driver Shaft Brand at all PGA, LPGA, Champions and Nationwide Tour events in the second quarter of 2008 competition. The brand’s dominance reinforces Fujikura’s position as the PGA Tour’s #1 Driver and Wood shaft brand for the last eight years.
