BRENTWOOD, Tenn., September 29, 2010…Softspikes®, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 Cleat on TOUR, captured three victories across the men’s professional golf tours this past weekend. Led by BLACK WIDOW®, golf’s best-selling cleat of all time, which was worn by the winner at the Nationwide Tour’s WNB Golf Classic, Softspikes-brand cleats were worn by winners at The TOUR Championship Presented by Coca-Cola and the Champions Tour’s SAS Championship.
Adding to a great weekend on tour, 32 of the top 41 finishers on the Nationwide Tour wore Softspikes brand cleats, with 5 of the top 8 finishers wearing BLACK WIDOW® TOUR™, golf’s hottest new cleat. Additionally, 6 of the top 9 finishers wore Softspikes on the PGA TOUR, along with 18 of the top 29 finishers on the Champion’s Tour, which included a fourth place finish by BLACK WIDOW® TOUR™.
“What better way to cap off one of Softspikes’ best seasons ever in professional golf then to win the FedEx Cup, while winning every other event in men’s golf on the same weekend,” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “We are thrilled by the continued popularity of our products in professional golf.”
