Brentwood, Tenn. – Softspikes® propelled the winner of the 3M Open to an emotional 4th PGA Tour title on Sunday at TPC Twin Cities in Minnesota.

After opening rounds of 68 and 66, it was a third round 63 that put the Venezuelan right into contention going into Sunday. Wearing Pulsar spikes in his FootJoy HyperFlex 3.0 golf shoes, the 39-year-old produced a final round 70, including a 72nd hole birdie to claim a one-shot victory. The win moves him up to 67th in the season-long FedEx Cup standings.

The win at the 3M Open means, the now four-time PGA Tour winner, becomes the 28th PGA Tour winner to do so wearing spikes in the last 32 PGA Tour events. In addition, 40 of the top 52 finishers at TPC Twin Cities chose to compete in replaceable spikes over spikeless shoes.

“To have over 87% of PGA Tour winners in 2024 putting their trust in Softspikes to triumph at the highest level of the game highlights the performance advantages wearing replaceable spikes deliver round after round,” commented Joe Henderson, President, Softspikes.

Tour players change grips and traction regularly based on course conditions, but amateur golfers rarely think about the impact wearing spikes has on consistency and distance. To achieve optimal performance benefits, golfers should be switching up their spikes every 15 rounds.
