Marlborough, MA-A Sunday afternoon on the PGA Tour wouldn’t be complete without two things, a playoff and the winner wearing CHAMP spikes. CHAMP congratulates the winner of the FedEx St. Jude Classic played in Memphis, Tennessee as he wins his first tour event wearing the PRO-STINGER™ spikes. This is the 16th win for CHAMP on the PGA Tour this year.
On the European Tour at the BMW Italian Open there was another first time winner who also chose to play in the #1 Brand on Tour. Played at the Royal Park I Roveri in Turin, Italy, nine of the top ten finishers also chose to wear CHAMP Spikes. In addition the number of participants in each event is also growing as 80% of the entire field this week wore CHAMP.
