Tiger Shark Golf was the #1 jumbo putter grip in play at the PGA Tour’s Turning Stone Resort Championship with five oversized putter grips in play. Four of the grips were Tiger Shark’s new slip-on 85-gram version of the popular non-tapered SuperStroke design, which has become one of the most visible technological advancements on the professional tours in recent years.
Long-time SuperStroke users KJ Choi and PGA Tour rookie Matt Bettencourt have guaranteed their cards for the 2010 PGA Tour season. Four of five players using a Tiger Shark grip made the cut at the Turning Stone Resort Championship.
In all, a total over 30 players on the PGA Tour, Champions Tour and Nationwide Tour put a Tiger Shark UltraTac grip into play in 2009, earning ten Top 10 finishes and earning a victory, a new course record and #1 putting stats at the Byron Nelson Championship. In 2009, Tiger Shark Golf has experienced more product models in play (9) by PGA Tour players than any other year in the company’s 36-year history. Their products that have been put in play by PGA Tour players are:
Tiger Shark Great White Putter
Tiger Shark GreenSpeed Putter
Tiger Shark Optix Putter
SuperStroke Proline Putter Grip
SuperStroke Classic Putter Grip
SuperStroke Lite Fatso Putter Grip
SuperStroke Lite Slim Putter Grip
Tiger Shark UltraTac Putter Grip
Tiger Shark UltraTac Jumbo 67 Putter Grip
The SuperStroke Lite Fatso putter grip, the grip most preferred by tour professionals, is three times the size of a standard putter grip at a diameter of 1.67 inches. The new grip will also be made available in a smaller diameter version called the Slim, which measures at 1.3 inches in diameter. The larger surface area of a SuperStroke brings more of the grip into contact with the hands, inhibiting breakdown of the wrists and ensures a smooth and fluid putting stroke.
