Brentwood, Tenn – Softspikes enjoyed another winning weekend across the professional tours, highlighted by a dominant record-breaking victory at the Amgen Irish Open.
The champion produced a remarkable performance at Trump International Golf Links in Doonbeg, closing with a seven-under-par 63 to finish 23 under and secure an 11-shot victory – the largest winning margin in Irish Open history.
Having recently switched footwear brands to PAYNTR Golf, the winner relied on Softspikes Tour Flex Pro spikes to provide the traction and stability needed throughout a commanding week on the links.
Eight birdies in the final round completed an emphatic performance and secured a second Irish Open title, 17 years after the champion first lifted the trophy as an amateur.
Softspikes also claimed victory on the PGA TOUR Champions at the Sanford International, where the winner trusted FootJoy footwear fitted with ProStinger spikes.
Joe Henderson, President of Softspikes, said: “An 11-shot victory at a national open is an incredible performance and another fantastic demonstration of why the world’s best players continue to trust replaceable spikes when performance matters most.
“To see Tour Flex Pro deliver immediately following a change in footwear is particularly noteworthy. Players may change shoes, but the demand for traction, stability and confidence underfoot remains exactly the same, and that is where Softspikes continues to perform.”
The latest victories add to another outstanding season for Softspikes, with replaceable spikes continuing to be the preferred choice of winners across the world’s leading professional tours.
Tour players routinely change spikes based on course conditions, but many amateur golfers overlook traction’s impact on consistency and distance. For optimal performance, golfers should replace spikes every 15 rounds.
