HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA – July 28, 2014 – Srixon® and Cleveland® Golf congratulate staffer Zack Sucher for his first professional win at the Web.com Tour’s 2014 Midwest Classic, held at Nicklaus Golf Club at Lionsgate in Overland Park, Kansas. Sucher, a 27-year-old former University of Alabama-Birmingham player, battled windy conditions on Sunday before closing with a 1-over-par 72 to clinch a three-stroke victory with a final overall score of 19-under 265. He earned $108,000 for the win and jumped from 20th to fourth on the Web.com Tour Money List with $247,318, which secures his PGA Tour card for the 2014-2015 season.
“I played really well last week and didn’t get it done the last two days,” said Sucher, who shared the 36-hole lead at last week’s Albertsons Boise Open but ended up finishing tied for fourth. “I’m headed to the PGA Tour and now I can finally stop worrying about it.”
Sucher currently plays a Srixon Z-STAR™ Tour Yellow ball with Spin Skin™ technology, a Cleveland Classic™ 290 driver (9°), a Cleveland 588® MT iron (#2), Cleveland 588 TC irons (#3 – #9), and Cleveland 588 RTX™ wedges (48°/52°/56°/60°). He wears a Srixon hat, a Srixon glove and carries a Srixon bag.
Sucher’s victory on his ‘Journey to Better’ comes after four top-10 finishes on the year, including his previous career-best finish at last week’s Albertsons Boise Open.
