Carlsbad, CA – October 16, 2020 –Pro’s Choice Golf Shafts, Inc. announced today that the winner of the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, held at the Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania was playing a Graphite Design Tour AD TP5-S in her TaylorMade M5 Driver and Graphite Design Tour AD TP shafts in her TaylorMade SIM fairway woods. The second-place finisher was playing a Graphite Design Tour AD MJ5-R1 in her Srixon XXIO Driver.
“Congratulations to the champion on her fantastic win to capture her first major LPGA Championship. She had an average driving distance of 278 yards on Sunday trusting Graphite Design golf shafts,” stated Erik Boysen, VP of Tour Promotions, Pro’s Choice Golf Shafts, Inc.
Designed and manufactured at the Graphite Design Japan factory headquarters, the Tour AD TP wood shaft is available in 40g R2, R1 and S flex, 50g R2, R1 and S flex, 60g SR, S, X and TX flex, 70g S, X and TX flex and 80g S and X flex.
The Tour AD TP, like all of the premium Tour AD wood shafts, utilizes premium, aerospace quality 50t carbon-fiber materials in order to deliver the best feeling and performing shaft available to golfers.
Designed around new tooling, the Tour AD TP utilizes a technology called Fast Taper Technology or “FTT”. This technology incorporates a faster taper rate from the lower mid-section to the tip of the shaft than previous Tour AD wood shaft models. The Fast Taper Technology provides the overall feeling of greater club head control at impact and an increase in club head speed through the swing.
The Tour AD TP shaft has a medium stiffness starting at the handle thru the mid-section of the shaft and a stiff tip profile to promote a mid/high launch condition and low spin. The new Tour AD TP also utilizes TORAYCA ® T1100G carbon-fiber pre-preg with NANOALLOY ® technology in the tip section of the shaft for additional shaft stability, exceptional feel and precise ball control.
