Akron, Ohio: Sundog Eyewear is proud to congratulate Genuine Performer™ Hunter Mahan on his dramatic victory at the PGA Tour World Golf Championship Bridgestone Invitational.
Wearing his Sundog Eyewear Signature Series H Mela-Lens™ sunglasses, Mahan fired a final round 64 to finish two strokes ahead of the best players in the world.
Mahan’s captured his third PGA Tour title, and second of 2010, relying on his signature Sundog Eyewear Mela-Lens™ with the distinctive Matte Polar White frames.
“We are all delighted with Hunter’s tremendous victory and very proud that he relies on his Signature Series H Mela-Lens™ sunglasses while performing at the game’s highest level,” said Gary Makar, Marketing Manager, Sundog Eyewear. “This WGC win assures Hunter’s place on the 2010 U.S. Ryder Cup team and his stature as one of golf’s finest players.”
Mahan has relied on Sundog Eyewear Signature Series H sunglasses that he helps design during his three PGA Tour wins, the 2009 Ryder Cup, the 2007 and 2009 Presidents Cup, and his Kiwi Challenge triumph.
His new Signature Series H Mela-Lens™ sunglasses feature Sundog Eyewear’s breakthrough Mela-Lens™ technology. “Mela” is short for Melanin, a naturally produced pigment that acts as a sunscreen protecting the skin from ultraviolet light. In partnership with BNL Eurolens, a member of the Essilor Group, Sundog Eyewear has created the Sundog Mela-Lens™ lines utilizing synthetic melanin to produce state-of-the-art melanin lens technology. Mela-Lens™ absorbs light seamlessly over a broad spectral range providing 98 per cent blue light filtration and 100 per cent UVA/B protection. Mela-Lens™ features BNL Eurolens Eternity Hard Coat for superior abrasion resistance. Mela-Lens™ is rated more abrasion resistant than competitive lenses. A more abrasion resistant lens wears less and ultimately provides better vision.
“I consider my Sundog Signature Series H Mela-Lens™ glasses a very important part of my equipment,” said Hunter Mahan. “While many golfers put their sunglasses on their hat when they putt, I count on my Sundog Eyewear to help me under all conditions.”
The Signature Series H Mela-Lens™ is available in Matte Polar White, Steel Blue, Black, and Brown frames, and a variety of lens colors.
The Sundog Eyewear Mela-Lens™ comes in nine styles for 2010 including the Hunter Mahan’s Signature Series H, the Paula Creamer Collection Captiva and the Allure model Creamer wore winning the 2010 U.S. Women’s Open, Weir Golf Signature Series Polarized Grinder, and in a new smoke-colored Mela-Lens™ for brighter light conditions.
