WORLD’S NO. 7 RANKED PLAYER WEARS REPLACEABLE CLEATS IN PLAYOFF VICTORY
Takes Commanding FedEx Cup Playoff Lead with Second Consecutive Win
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., September 4, 2018 – The seventh ranked player in the World Golf Rankings is making a statement in the FedEx Playoffs with his second consecutive win in the Dell Technologies Championship…wearing replaceable cleat technology in both victories.
“We’re proud to have our Softspikes Cyclone cleats keeping the top player in the playoffs firmly on the ground,” said John Hohman, senior vice president of marketing for PrideSports. “He’s really peaking at the right time and we are pulling for a sweep!”
It was nearly a clean sweep for replaceable cleats at the Dell Technologies Championship as 22 of the top 24 chose replaceable cleat technology over spikeless/tennis shoes. Cleated footwear were also on the feet of the winner of the Champions Tour’s Shaw Charity Classic over the weekend.
