RIFE Captures 2nd Place Finish at The ShopRite LPGA Classic

June 4, 2013

Sanford, FL – Reigning Wegmans LPGA Championship winner Shanshan Feng looks to be in good form to defend her title next week as she fired a 4-under 67 this past weekend to take the second-round lead on Saturday at the ShopRite LPGA Classic Presented by Acer.

Feng and her RIFE Mr. Beasley putter carded six birdies and two bogeys on Saturday to move her to 6-under-par for the tournament. She finished just two strokes off the lead on Sunday and appears to be ready to defend her LPGA Championship Title next week at The Locust Hill Country Club in Pittsford, NY.

“ShanShan is a very disciplined and determined player,” said Kyle Ulrikson, RIFE’s PGA/LPGA Tour Rep. “If anyone can defend that LPGA Championship Title she can. It’s not going to be easy. Everyone will be gunning for her, but we’re all pulling for her and we wish her the best of luck!”

Feng is just one of the many non-endorsed Professional Tour Players who choose to play a RIFE putter even though they’re not paid to play it. “The Tour Players play our putter because it helps them earn a bigger paycheck on Sunday,” said Jim Barfield, V.P. of Tour Operations for RIFE Golf, “and we’re very proud of that. Our RollGroove Technology grips and lifts the ball into an instant forward roll and gets it on line and headed towards the cup quicker than any other putter in the industry. If it’s good enough for the best golfers in the world you can bet it’s going to help you sink more putts as well.”

About RIFE Golf

RIFE Golf 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 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.
