Top 3 U.S. Open plastic cleat field donned Softspikes
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., June 20, 2011 … Softspikes®, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 Cleat in Golf, once again dominated the plastic cleat field at this year’s U.S. Open. With 6 of the Top 8 finishers donning the brand, Softspikes claimed more than half of the plastic cleat field in Bethesda.
Softspikes’ newest cleat, the Cyclone made large strides this weekend appearing on 17 players’ shoes. Cyclone features an advanced rotational design to counteract forces seen during impact. These features allow players to achieve ultimate traction and durability on the greens.
“This weekend’s Open was a very exciting event across the board,” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “Seeing so many of Softspikes’ cleats on the leaderboard definitely added to the weekend buzz.”
Softspikes’ patented Dynamic Cleat Technology allows its cleats to be responsive to all terrains – Tee Boxes, Fairways, Roughs, Greens, etc – providing confidence on every swing of the club. In other words, longer drives, better iron shots and lower scores. For more information on Softspikes, please visit www.softspikes.com.
PrideSports was formed in January 2003 following Pride Manufacturing Company’s purchase of Softspikes, Inc., and its sister company Trisport, Ltd. of England. This acquisition essentially formed the world’s premier golf accessories company, as Pride and Softspikes are the world’s leading golf tee and golf cleat lines, respectively. Today, PrideSports is the world leader in the design and manufacture of cleats, spikes and receptacles for the entire golf footwear industry.
