BELLINGHAM, Wash. – SteelFiber shafts, the most-winning graphite iron shafts in golf, delivered the victory at the SAS Championship – the second win for SteelFiber shafts in the past five weeks on the Champions Tour. In addition to the win, SteelFiber shafts scored a Top 10 finish at the KEB HanaBank Championship on the LPGA Tour.
Playing SteelFiber i95 graphite shafts in his irons, the Scottish pro and PGA Hall-of-Famer finished strong with his SteelFiber shafts, shooting a bogey-free, 8-under 64 in his final round to secure a three-stroke victory. The SAS Championship was his sixth career victory on the Champions Tour. Meanwhile on the LPGA Tour, the 21-year-old Australian – who already has earned three LPGA wins – played SteelFiber i80 graphite shafts in her irons for a T6 finish at the KEB HanaBank Championship.
“We congratulate the winner of the SAS Championship on his strong bogey-free finish and victory,” says Chris Hilleary, president of Aerotech Golf. “SteelFiber shafts are the most-winning graphite iron shafts on the pro tours, and a player’s ability to finish stronger and play better longer is one of the reasons why SteelFiber is Number One. SteelFiber shafts delivery unprecedented stability and increased distance as well as reduce the risk of injury and decrease player fatigue. It’s a real game-changer.”
SteelFiber shafts provide superior performance through innovative composite engineering that combines a high-modulus graphite core with 59 miles of steel fiber lacing the shaft surface. The shaft’s graphite core provides vibration dampening, increased clubhead speed and maximum distance, while the steel fibers produce optimum weighting for a solid feel at impact and add stability and control for pinpoint accuracy.
Last year, SteelFiber shafts delivered 20 wins on pro tours around the world as well as won the coveted CME Race for the Globe Trophy and 2016 Money Title on the LPGA Tour. Players with SteelFiber shafts routinely rank high on the PGA Money List, Official World Golf Rankings and the FedEx Cup Season Points. In 2013, for example, SteelFiber players ranked No. 2 and No. 3 in the FedEx Cup Season Points and ended overall as No. 3 and No. 5 on the PGA Money List. SteelFiber shafts won the highly prized FedEx Cup in 2012.
