CHICAGO, IL, May 13, 2009: On a course noted for its narrow fairways and demanding driving accuracy, the Czech Republic native paired an Oban Devotion 75 X shaft with his Callaway driver and achieved a top ten finish in this year’s Players Championship in Ponte Vedra, Florida. Posting an impressive opening round score of 66 – hitting 100% of the fairways – the first round leader carried this momentum through the weekend, starting the final round with a 5 stroke lead.
“The Devotion continues to demonstrate its superior design characteristics as more and more top ranked players put the shaft into play,” said Victor Afable, President of Oban Composites. “With each top 10 finish, Oban shafts are gaining popularity on both the Nationwide and PGA tours. Tour players are switching to Oban for a better feel, increased distance and tighter dispersion.”
