Sanford, FL – RIFE Putters captured a win at The Emirates Australian Open held at The Lakes Golf Club in Sydney, Australia this past weekend. It was a RIFE Two Bar Hybrid Mallet putter that was used to finish 4 under and seal the victory at a tournament that was plagued by several wind and rain delays. At 53, the former PGA and current Champions Tour Player became the oldest to ever win the Stonehaven Cup.
“Winning the PGA a couple of years ago up at Coolum was great, but I tell you what, nothing beats winning right here,” said the Australian Open Champion.
“We’d like to congratulate the winner on an impressive victory under some very difficult conditions,” said Jim Barfield, V.P. of Tour Operations for RIFE Putters. “It’s great to see him step out of the shadows and back into the limelight like this…he truly deserves it. He really loves that Long Two Bar Mallet we put together for him…I knew it was just a matter of time before he made it payoff. Now he’s working with a standard length version as well…just in case this anchoring ban goes into effect.”
About RIFE Putters
RIFE Putters, LLC is the true innovator behind horizontal grooved face putter technology with a patent on specifically sized grooves since 1997. These precisely spaced grooves allow the putter to gently press into the cover of the ball and grip and lift it into an instant forward roll. RIFE Putters states, “just as grooves in irons help control spin so do grooves in a putter face.” Other companies are now trying to imitate this patented technology but the spacing of the grooves is the true key to the gripping and lifting effect of grooved face putter technology. Horizontal RollGrooveTM faced putters create the truest “no skid” roll in golf no matter where you hit the ball on the putter face.
