Fourteen Golf team member captures Winstar Long Drive Invitational
IRVINE, Calif. (June 29, 2015) – Relying on Fourteen Golf’s GelongD CT-214 LD driver to power his way to victory, Jason Eslinger captured the Winstar Long Drive Invitational on June 27 at the Winstar World Casino and Resort in Thackerville, Okla.
The Winstar Long Drive Invitational is an invitation-only event for the world’s 32 best long drivers and is one of the premier stops on the national tour of the Long Drivers of America (LDA). Eslinger emerged from a shootout featuring the top eight competitors to capture the title with a monstrous 403-yard drive in the championship round.
Eslinger wasn’t the only Fourteen Golf team member in the field as Austin Kincaid advanced to the semifinals as well, making Fourteen Golf the only club manufacturer with two representatives in the final four.
“Whether it’s added touch around the green or extra distance off the tee, Fourteen Golf prides itself on making the best clubs on the market today,” said Marcy Kamoda, Fourteen Golf’s COO. “Jason and Austin’s success shows just how formidable of a club the GelongD CT-214 LD is, and we’re proud of what they’ve been able to achieve.”
Eslinger is a five-time finalist at the World Long Drive Championships and previously led the LDA’s official money list in 2010. He’s driven the ball longer than 400 yards more than 60 times in competition, including his winning drive at the Winstar Invitational.
The GelongD CT-214 LD is designed to go long, relying on a layered cup face to generate monster drives. From the length of the club to its “spring-like effect” values, each component of this driver is designed to add length and bolster performance. A layered cup face offers a wider sweet spot and, in turn, produces longer drives, making it one of the premier drivers on the market.
