Softspikes/PrideSports Also Worn by 7 of the Top 9 Finishers at the US Women’s Open Championship
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., July 11, 2012 … Softspikes®, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 Cleat in Golf, shined in the spotlight this weekend after being worn by the rookie winner of The Greenbrier Classic. Softspikes’ Black Widow Tour cleat completed the Cinderella story as the winner sank a four foot birdie putt to clinch the playoff. In all, 27 out of the top 38 finishers at the event wore PrideSports/Softspikes, including both players of the final playoff. PrideSports/Softspikes claimed 63% of the plastic cleat field in West Virginia.
The winner of The Greenbrier Classic put his confidence in Softspikes’ Black Widow Tour cleat, the most advanced performance golf cleat on the market. It features two comfort settings, Tour-Comfort and Tour-Firm, allowing golfers to customize their cleats to best fit their golf game.
“We’re proud to be part of this storybook win at The Greenbrier this year.” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “Tour players trust in our product to help land them in the winners circle, and we look forward to many more wins like this.”
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.
