WIXOM Mich. – SuperStroke’s patented parallel technology was instrumental in helping two players finish in the Top 5 at the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship.
Playing SuperStroke’s Slim 3.0 grip, the second place finisher extended the WGC championship match five extra holes and converted two incredible up-and-downs before eventually falling to the tournament champ.
Jordan Spieth, 2013 PGA Tour Rookie of the Year and SuperStroke’s global brand ambassador, finished the tournament tied for fifth playing SuperStroke’s newest grip, the Flatso Ultra.
Before switching to SuperStroke’s putter grips with patented parallel technology, both players were well outside the Top 100 in the Official World Golf Rankings at the start of the 2013 season. After his second place finish at the WGC-Accenture the Frenchman is now ranked 23rd in the OWGR and Spieth is ranked 12th.
“SuperStroke’s patented parallel technology design allows for even pressure in both hands, while eliminating added tension in the wrist and forearms,” said Jon Luna, SuperStroke USA Marketing Director. “This helps the golfer’s arms swing more freely, which further enhances a pendulum-putting stroke.”
The Slim 3.0 grip, used by 2013 PGA Tour Champion Jason Dufner, is the most popular SuperStroke model on the PGA Tour. The Slim 3.0 helped turn in five worldwide victories in 2013 including the Open Championship and PGA Championship.
The Flatso Ultra is a 1.10 inch in diameter, 82 gram grip features SuperStroke’s parallel design technology, a new patent pending pentagonal shape and flat top design.
“The characteristics of the Flatso line inhibit wrist action and promote shoulder rotation for added consistency in your putting stroke,” said Luna. “The pentagonal shape allows players looking for the feel of a pistol grip an option in the SuperStroke line.”
SuperStroke (www.superstrokeusa.com) grips are made using lightweight foam under listing, that is long lasting and extremely shock absorbent. They are designed with a high-tech polyurethane material featuring cross traction technology that improves feel and tackiness. Combined with SuperStroke’s patented parallel technology further increases consistency and lowers scores for every level of golfer, even TOUR professionals.
The Slim 3.0 has a suggested retail price of $24.99 and the Flatso Ultra retails for $19.99.
