Fairhaven, MA – With his one shot victory at the Memorial, Steve Stricker became the first player to win on the PGA Tour trusting FootJoy performance apparel. Stricker also chose DryJoys Tour™ golf shoes and a Pure Touch® Limited glove.
Steve was the only player in the field to record all four rounds in the 60’s, including his final round 4-under 68 that featured a weather delay. Contrary to his first three rounds which featured exhilarating eagles and even an ace on the par three eighth hole Friday, it was Stricker’s ability to scramble and convert critical par putts that led him to his 10th career victory and his ascension to #4 in the Official World Golf Rankings.
Stricker has been wearing FJ performance apparel since January, 2011. Once again, Steve opted for the ProDry® Performance Lisle golf shirts at the Memorial. Available in a wide range of styles and colors, the ProDry Lisle is the ultimate high-tech performance garment for warm conditions featuring the ProDry stretch fabrication that wicks moisture, provides excellent UV sun protection and allows for a full range of motion during the golf swing.
Steve has also been wearing the latest in FootJoy golf shoes this season. Launched in January, DryJoys Tour™ was born from a 21-year heritage as the #1 all-weather performance shoe in golf. They deliver the comfort, flexibility and waterproof performance that players at all levels have come to expect from the DryJoys® brand while integrating the next generation Tri-Density TPU Stability PODS™ outsole for the stability and performance required to compete on the tour’s most demanding courses, like Muirfield Village.
Stricker notes, “With the new DryJoys Tour, you immediately notice the improved stability and connection with the ground. It’s a significant improvement and one that will benefit performance. Equally important, the overall comfort is outstanding.”
“It’s an all-around great product and has been my ‘go-to shoe’ since I first received them.”
With the exclusive Pure Touch Limited glove, Stricker benefited from pure feel on the golf club. The new standard in product leadership, innovation and outstanding performance for the serious player, Pure Touch Limited delivers a soft, supple feel and a precision, tailored fit.
