(MARLBOROUGH, MA) – CHAMP/MacNeill Engineering Worldwide – The World Leader in Sport Cleat Technology® and maker of innovative CHAMP spikes, high-performance golf tees and accessories – confirms its renowned spikes were used by the winner and five top-10 finishers at the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by MasterCard.
Capturing his first PGA Tour title, the 30-year-old Florida native relied on the popular ScorpionSTINGER™ spike – featuring spring-flex traction technology – to ensure optimum gripping and comfort at the venerable Bay Hill Club in Orlando, FL. The #1 Brand on Tour®, CHAMP spikes have been used by 32 of the last 44 major winners and are available in a variety of options.
“With stakes riding high on a tough golf course, we knew the players using our spikes would have an edge,” says Harris MacNeill, President and CEO of CHAMP/MacNeill Engineering Worldwide. “The top golfers in the world continue to rely upon CHAMP, as our products offer the ultimate in traction, comfort and stability.”
Beyond the cleat category, the company offers a wide range of products, including the Zarma FLYtee™ series and C GRIPS line, which showcases a variety of groundbreaking features never before seen in the industry.
Drawing from MacNeill Engineering’s unrivalled 80-plus year heritage, the FLYtee line has quickly become one of the most-used tees by leading professionals worldwide. The new FLYteePRO model is infused with a specially-engineered polymer that makes it nearly indestructible. Like its predecessors, the PRO model showcases a six-pronged head and shallow cup to reduce friction at impact, promoting longer and straighter drives.
Designed with a strong emphasis on technical innovation and game-improving performance, five CHAMP grip models will be available to consumers in early 2014. The new collection has gained a loyal following among Tour players, who recognize the superior feel, durability and performance characteristics inherent to each line.
