The Open Championship (British Open)
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., July 18, 2016… Softspikes®/PrideSports, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 Cleat in Golf, enjoyed watching the winner of the British Open Championship make history with the help of his Softspikes® Black Widow® cleats. The winner set the lowest score in the 145 year history at The Open. Softspikes® Black Widow® cleats are the most popular cleats in golf and are available in five different insert systems, which allows them to work with every golf shoe in the marketplace.
“Our Softspikes® Black Widow® cleats offer exceptional grip and allow the cleat to be flexible on putting surfaces and balanced on fairways. Dozens of competitive plastic cleats have come and gone in the industry, but none have come close to achieving the popularity and success of Black Widow®, both on a professional and amateur level” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “Check out the full assortment of Softspikes® cleats at- http://www.softspikes.com/golfcleats.”
