Tour Edge Exotics Staffer Scott McCarron Finishes 3rd at Senior Open Championship with Exotics CBX hybrid
Tour Edge Exotics CBX staff player Scott McCarron finished 3rd at the Senior Open Championship Sunday at the Old Course at St. Andrews, the fifth and final major event of the year on the PGA Tour Champions.
McCarron played a 19-degree Exotics CBX hybrid with a Fujikura Atmos Blue 8X shaft en route to a 10-under-par 278 (67-73-70-68). He was seen using his spin-killing Exotics CBX off the tee numerous times at the windy Old Course.
In the five major events played on the 2018 PGA Tour Champions, professionals playing Tour Edge Exotics earned three runner-up finishes, eight Top 5 finishes and 11 Top 10 finishes.
Fourteen total Tour Edge clubs were in play at St. Andrews: eight Exotics CBX hybrids, four Exotics CBX fairway woods and two Exotics CBX Iron-Woods.
“To have earned eight Top 5 finishes in the five major events played on PGA Champions is a true testament to the Exotics CBX line,” said Tour Edge President and Master Club Designer David Glod. “Exotics CBX continues to earn awards and accolades, including recently being named most wanted fairway wood of the year by My Golf Spy, so to have these amazing tour stats to back it up really is all the additional proof you’ll need in your search for the best of the best.”
So far on the 2018 PGA Tour Champions, 206 Exotics clubs have been put into play, leading to three victories, 20 Top 5’s and 35 Top 10’s for the players choosing to play the metalwoods.
Exotics CBX ranked as the #2 hybrid model in play at St. Andrews this week. It has ranked as the #1 or #2 hybrid model in every major event on PGA Tour Champions this year.
Since the launch of Exotics CBX to the PGA Tour Champions, over 40 different professionals have put the CBX fairway woods, hybrids and/or iron-woods into play.
Eight players playing Tour Edge are currently ranked in the Top 35 in the 2018 Charles Schwab Cup standings, including three players in the Top 10 and six players in the Top 25: #5 Scott McCarron, #8 Tim Petrovic, #10 Non-Contracted Player, #13 Tom Lehman, #22 Rocco Mediate, #25 Duffy Waldorf, #31 Scott Dunlap, and #32 Bart Bryant.
The PGA Tour Champions continues later this week at the 3M Championship held in Minnesota.
About Exotics CBX
Exotics CBX are the only metal woods ever designed to feature a Titanium face, stainless steel body and carbon fiber sole. The Exotics CBX hybrid’s higher CG is located slightly forward in the club head through the use of a carbon fiber in the
sole, which is significantly lighter than stainless steel. This helps to increase ball speed and reduce spin, which makes for less dispersion. Tour Edge’s extremely thin Beta-titanium cup-face enlarges the ideal hitting area on the clubs. It is brazed to stainless steel behind the hitting area which allows the face to flex more at impact, while the Speed Ramp sole design provides reduced turf interaction so the club can maintain its speed through the hitting area. The Tour Edge Exotics CBX fairway woods, Exotics CBX hybrids and Exotics CBX Iron-Woods are currently available at select authorized Tour Edge retailers.
