Williams Sports, powered by Williams Formula One Team Technology, announced today that twenty-four KPGA Members, including several Tour Players, have signed an annual contract to play and promote the Williams brand of golf equipment in Korea.
Over the next year, Williams PRO staff members will participate in promotional events, Tournaments and One-on-One instructional seminars to promote the full line of Williams equipment to golfers at both golf course and off-course retail locations throughout the country.
“The Williams brand is fairly new to Korean golfers,” said the President of Williams-Korea. “That’s why we felt it was important to work with the KPGA Members and Tour Players to demonstrate the superior performance and playability of our golf equipment. So far, the response has been very positive, and we’re looking forward to having even more KPGA Members participate next year.”

“We are very pleased and excited to be working with G-Plaza,” said Michael Lee, President/CEO of Williams Sports. “They’re relationship and connections with the KPGA have been instrumental in assembling the Williams PRO staff and successfully launching the Williams brand in Korea.”
Williams has incorporated some very unique aerodynamic design features from Formula One racing into their golf clubs. Three key aerodynamic aspects that manage airflow and reduce drag have been directly engineered into the shape of their FW32 Driver, Fairway Woods and Hybrids.
The three key aerodynamic aspects are the Trip, Winglets, and Diffuser. The Trip redirects airflow over the crown of the Driver to minimize the surface area of the crown that is affected by airflow contact, which is important in the reduction of drag. The Winglets manage and control the air flowing around the heel and the toe section of the Driver, creating a more consistent and stable path throughout the downswing and impact. The diffuser is a key component in diffusing and controlling the air that flows across the soleplate of the driver, combining with the effectiveness of the “Trip”, to minimize the wake and density of airflow off the rear of the driver creating a significant reduction in drag.
A Williams FW32 Players Series Driver was used recently to send a golf ball an amazing 404 yards to win the L-1 Grand Prix Long Drive Championship in Okinawa, Japan and the winner attributed his success to the superior aerodynamics of this Formula One inspired club.
