Softspikes/PrideSports worn by 68% of the plastic cleat field at the Wyndham Championship
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., August 22, 2012 … Softspikes®, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 Cleat in Golf, continued its winning legacy this weekend, adding three additional Tour wins to its name. The respective winners of the PGA, LPGA and Web.com Tour events all donned Softspikes/PrideSports. At the Wyndham Championship, 16 of the top 22 finishers sported the brand, while 28 of the top 35 finishers at the Web.com Tour’s Midwest Classic all put their trust in Softspikes/PrideSports.
At the LPGA Tour’s Safeway Classic, the winner and both players that tied for second wore Softspikes/ PrideSports, with two of them choosing Softspikes’ Pulsar cleat. 4 out of the top 6 finishers at the Midwest Classic sported Cyclone, Softspikes’ newest cleat. Both Pulsar and Cyclone feature Softspikes’ Dynamic Cleat Technology, which reacts to every angle of force exerted by the golfer.
“This was a wonderful weekend for our company.” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “We continue to dominate the plastic cleat field at each Tour event and we’re confident that this trend will continue.”
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.
