BRENTWOOD, Tenn., – PrideSports confirms the winners of the PGA TOUR Champions’ Constellation Furyk & Friends, LPGA Tour’s Cognizant Founders Cup and European Tour’s ACCONIA Open de Espana all relied on the company’s replaceable cleat solutions.
Capturing his 56th professional victory, the 51-year-old winner of the Constellation Furyk & Friends, contested at the Timuquana Country Club in Jacksonville, FL., relied on the Pulsar® from SoftSpikes® in his Callaway footwear. The Pulsar was also the spike of choice for the winner of the ACCONIA Open de Espana, which was played at Club de Campo Villa de Madrid in Spain.
On the LPGA Tour, the winner of the Cognizant Founders Cup achieved a wire-to-wire victory and carded her 14th consecutive round in the 60s, matching a 16-year record held by Annika Sorenstam. She wore the company’s Pins Thintech XPS spikes in her Adidas ZG21 shoes.
“All players, regardless of age or gender benefit from the enhanced stability and traction provided by our replaceable spikes,” 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.
