Direct Link will be carrying three Series of clubs from Williams Sports: the Players Series, Gold Series and Black Diamond Series, as well as an extensive line of apparel and accessories for 2010.
Players Series
The Players Series is aimed at the core global golfer. This line is the lifeline of the Williams Sports product line. This series will feature equipment designed for the everyday golfer that seeks the highest in quality and performance from their equipment. This line will be the platform for all series of equipment that Williams Sports produces. This series will target 75% of the global golfing population and will set the bar for bar of excellence in the golf industry in all aspects of design, performance, and production.
Gold Series
The Gold Series from Williams Sports will target the golfer that is looking for something outside the traditional realm of golf club styling. This series will share the same technological and aerodynamic advancements that are the core foundation of the entire Williams Sports line. The Gold Series will separate itself from the other series by modifications to the cosmetics and finish of each product. The most noticeable and recognized difference will be the exquisite 24 karat gold plating on all exposed metal surfaces. To compliment this finish, we have chosen a rich metallic color to bring out the luster of the gold plating. The Gold Series will be the perfect choice for the golfer that is looking for the combination of luxurious styling in an ultra-high performance product designed to perform at the highest level.
Black Diamond Series
The Williams team of engineers understands the core basis and essentials of performance. It’s crucial for all performance based equipment to be designed around the individual operating it, whether it’s a Formula One race car or a golf club. At Williams F1, a custom seat is created to mold perfectly to the driver’s body. From there, the engine and suspension are engineered to match the style and characteristics of the driver. The Williams Sports Black Diamond Series will feature the same formula for performance and success. This is not just a club series…this is The Ultimate Golf Experience! Understanding each individual golfers needs are unique, a Williams Sports expert club maker will custom fit and tailor each piece of equipment to the specific needs of the player. Maximizing and utilizing all fitting aspects will ensure the highest level of success that the Black Diamond Series can offer. The player will also receive a personalized 100% Italian leather custom Williams golf bag handmade in Italy by Schedoni, and will be a VIP Guest of the team of any F1 event of his choosing*. The Black Diamond Series package carries a price tag of US $50,000.00.
