SOUTHERN PINES, N.C. … Eaton announced today, that when the eyes of the world are watching the 2015 Presidents Cup this week, its Golf Pride Grips Division will be trusted by more players than all other brands combined. In fact, Golf Pride is the grip of choice by a margin of 21-3 (88%).
Of the 21 players relying on Golf Pride grips at Jack Nicklaus Golf Club, 15 trust their games to the popular Tour Velvet family. The second most popular Golf Pride grip family in play this week is the MCC, offering unique hybrid rubber/cord performance that will help negotiate the humid conditions of South Korea.
When looking at the Golf Pride usage by team, the results are consistent. 11 of 12 players on the U.S. team and 10 of 12 players on the International squad feel more confident with Golf Pride in their hands.
“International team matches lead to some of golf’s most pressure packed moments because both a team and a nation are counting on its players,” said Brandon Sowell, global sales and marketing director for Golf Pride. “We are proud to know that regardless of what team they represent or where they are playing, they choose to trust their games to Golf Pride.”
