It was a battle to the finish and it ended in true Major Championship fashion. The winner managed to overcome a 6 shot deficit on the final day of play to finish 7 under, 273 solidifying his 4th Major Championship. This year, his driving distance has averaged over 292 yards and he averages to hit over 66% of greens in regulation.
“This was one of the most exciting finishes I can remember for a Major Championship and I was very glad to see him win the tournament,” says Pat McCoy, Director of Technical Services. “For him to trust Fujikura, for as long as he has is a true testament of our brand and the products we develop for players of all skill levels.”
The Motore Speeder features Fujikura’s proprietary and proven Triax Woven material along with Quadra Axis Composite creating a 7-axis Technology. The uniformity throughout the shaft assists with eliminating deformation yet providing the maximum amount of feel through the entire swing, increasing overall performance and stability.
