BRENTWOOD, Tenn., – The MacNeill Pride Group confirms the winners of PGA Tour’s Wyndham Championship, PGA Tour Champions’ Shaw Charity Classic and Korn Ferry Tour’s Pinnacle Bank Championship all relied on the Pulsar® from SoftSpikes®.
Capturing his fourth PGA Tour title in a dramatic playoff performance at the Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, NC, the 37-year-old winner of the Wyndham Championship relied on the Pulsar® in his FootJoy Premier shoes. He was among 26 of the top-34 finishers who chose replaceable spikes over spikeless options.
On the PGA Tour Champions, the winner of the Shaw Charity Classic birdied the final three holes to capture his win, relying on FootJoy Hyperflex shoes equipped with Pulsar® spikes. At the regular-season ending Pinnacle Bank Championship on the Korn Ferry Tour, the winner trusted FootJoy Premier Shoes to not only secure the win, but also earn his PGA Tour card for next season.
Pulsar® recently received a Golf Digest Editor’s Choice Award in the “Best Cleats” category, as it delivers maximum comfort and performance via a unique 16 component design that reacts to every angle of force exerted by a golfer.
“Players of all ages and skill levels benefit from using replaceable cleats that provide them with the best possible traction and stability,” 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.
