BRENTWOOD, Tenn., April 5, 2022 – PrideSports® confirms the winner of the PGA Tour’s Valero Texas Open used Silver Tornado® spikes from Softspikes® in his NIKE Zoom Victory Tour 2 shoes.
This was the 31-year-old’s first PGA Tour title, which he won by a two-stroke margin at The Oaks Course at TPC San Antonio. Windy conditions made stability and traction key elements to success over the weekend. Beyond the champion, 23 of the top-34 finishers also relied on replaceable spikes.
“It’s great to see this young man get his first PGA Tour win and an invite to this week’s Masters Tournament,” said Joe Henderson, President of PrideSports. “So far in 2022, 13 PGA Tour champions have trusted replaceable spikes to help them find the winner’s circle.”
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.
