(MARLBOROUGH, MA) – CHAMP/MacNeill Engineering Worldwide – The World Leader in Sport Cleat Technology® and maker of innovative CHAMP spikes, high-performance grips, golf tees and accessories – announces the winners of the PGA Tour’s Wells Fargo Championship and European Tour’s Open de Espana relied on its renowned spikes.
The number one ranked golfer in the world continued his success wearing the Zarma Tour® spike, coupled with the revolutionary SLIM-Lok fastening system, to capture victory at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, NC. With SLIM-Lok, shoe manufacturers are able to create significantly lighter, stronger and lower-profile designs, allowing golfers to get closer to the turf for improved stability, feel and balance. Over in Europe, the Open de Espana champion used the popular ScorpionSTINGER™ spike – featuring spring-flex traction technology – to capture his 2nd European Tour title.
“Our new SLIM-Lok system has attracted some of the brightest young talents in the game and the results have been tremendous,” says Harris MacNeill, President and CEO of CHAMP/MacNeill Engineering Worldwide. “CHAMP spikes help all players achieve the traction, comfort and stability necessary to perform at their highest potential.”
All SLIM-Lok equipped spikes are compatible with the millions of TRI-Lok® and Fast Twist® already in the marketplace. This system also greatly simplifies the spike changing process while virtually eliminating the risk of spike loss during rounds. An exclusive CHAMP technology, SLIM-Lok is trusted by scores of leading OEMs – including ECCO®, New Balance®, Nike®, OGIO®, TRUE Linkswear™ and Under Armour®
