#1 Brand on Tour has Strong Win on EUPGA Tour
Marlborough, MA-August 26th, 2008 – Another week, another victory, as the winner of the KLM Open relied on CHAMP to capture his Sunday win. Choosing the Cermec® spike, the highly anticipated hopeful of the 2008 Ryder Cup Captain’s pick finished the tournament at 16-under 264 for a 4-stroke victory over his nearest competitor.
CHAMP spikes were seen across the leaderboard as an amazing seven of the top ten finishers chose CHAMP Spikes. In total, 62% of the field chose to have CHAMP on their feet as the ProStinger™, Scorpion Stinger™ and Cermec® Spikes were all seen at Kennemer Golf Club in Zandvoort, Netherlands.
“It is very rewarding to see such great results overseas,” said Harris MacNeill, President
of MacNeill Engineering/CHAMP Spikes. “Our metal spikes as well as our soft golf spikes offer different innovative traction technologies. Having players worldwide using our full range of spikes to satisfy their traction needs is a true testament to the quality of CHAMP Spikes.”
