MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The 2011 PGA TOUR season opened this weekend in Hawaii, and True Temper shafts picked up exactly where they left off last season. Delivering unmatched accuracy on the course, True Temper’s Dynamic Gold outperformed the competition to win the Hyundai Tournament of Champions.
The PGA TOUR winner played Dynamic Gold X100 shafts in his irons and DG Spinner shafts in his wedges to shoot a 24-under 268 and win a dramatic sudden-death playoff at the Tournament of Champions. Nine of the players earning the Top 10 money positions at the event trusted shafts designed and manufactured by True Temper.
European Tour players also continue to favor True Temper shafts, and the No. 1 shaft manufacturer’s success was demonstrated again with a win at this weekend’s South African Open. The champion played Project X graphite shafts in his driver, 3- and 5-wood and Dynamic Gold in his irons.
“Last year, True Temper shafts dominated the pro tours around the globe, winning 119 events and all four Majors,” says Scott Hennessy, president and CEO of True Temper Sports. “We are excited to kick off the 2011 season in the same winning fashion. With so many seasoned professional golfers and the most recent Q-School grads trusting shafts by True Temper, we look forward to continuing to lead the weekly shaft counts and tournament wins this year.”
The Number One selling shaft in golf, Dynamic Gold is preferred by skilled players seeking a low, penetrating ball flight. Dynamic Gold has earned world-renown respect as the winningest shafts in the history of the game. The Project X line of shafts are also proven winners, including the Project X graphite shaft which has quickly established itself as the premier graphite shaft in the game today.
