BRENTWOOD, Tenn., – The MacNeill Pride Group confirms winners from this past weekend’s PGA TOUR, Korn Ferry Tour and European Tour events all relied on replaceable cleat solutions from Softspikes® and Champ®.
Continuing his dominant play over the past month, the 36-year-old Tour Championship winner topped the leaderboard at East Lake Golf Club en route to collecting the $15 million FedEx Cup Playoffs prize. One of the longest hitters in the history of the game, he trusted the PINS Thintech XP spikes in his Adidas Tour 360 shoes to ensure optimum traction and solid footing throughout his powerful swing. He was one of 22 players in the 30-man field who relied on replaceable cleats.
On both the European and Korn Ferry Tours, the winners of the Estrella Damm N.A. Andalucía Masters and Lincoln Land Championship presented by LRS, respectively, relied on the CHAMP Zarma Tour in their Nike Air Zoom Victory shoes.
“It was another big week for our cleats, especially with the buzz surrounding the No.1 ranked player in the world going after his first FedEx Cup title,” said John Hohman, senior vice president of marketing for PrideSports/MacNeill-Pride Group.
Replacement Softspikes® and Champ® cleats can be purchased in the golf section of most large retailers, sporting goods stores, golf specialty and golf course pro shops across the country. Cleats can also be purchased online from any of these locations, your favorite online store or directly from www.golfspikes.com.
PrideSports is the undisputed leader in the golf cleat segment with its CHAMP® and Softspikes® brands. The company recommends golfers change their cleats every six to eight months – or even more frequently based on use – to ensure golfers get the maximum performance out of their footwear.
CHAMP’s Helix®, Zarma Tour® and Stinger® cleats, as well as Softspikes’ Pivix®, Pulsar®, Silver Tornado® and Stealth® cleats, dominate the OEM and secondary market in terms of performance and sales. More information can be found at www.champspikes.com and www.Softspikes.com.
