Softspikes Claimed the Majority of the Plastic Cleat Field at John Deere Classic and Wins the LPGA Women’s U.S. Open
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., July 11, 2011 … Softspikes®, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 Cleat in Golf, dominated the plastic cleat field once again at the John Deere Classic. With 4 of the Top 5 plastic cleat wearers donning the brand, Softspikes claimed more than 60% of the plastic cleat field.
Softspikes’ TourFlex cleat was victorious this weekend on the LPGA Tour. With 4 of the top 5 Women’s U.S. Open finishers sporting the brand, Softspikes also controlled the plastic cleat field in Colorado Springs.
“Seeing Softspikes on most of the Tour players is a great indicator of the brand’s quality,” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “It is so exciting to see more and more Pros sporting our cleats.”
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.
