29-year-old Californian uses SuperStroke’s 1.0PT putter grip to clinch his first-career win
Wixom, MI – SuperStroke, the No. 1 Putter Grip in golf and the leader in innovative Tour-proven golf grip technology, congratulates 29-year-old PGA TOUR rookie Jake Knapp on his gritty two-stroke victory at the Mexico Open at Vidanta. Clutch putting down the final stretch helped the Korn Ferry Tour graduate and former UCLA Bruin hold on to his lead and secure his first career win on the PGA TOUR. With rounds of 67-64-63-71, Knapp earned $1.458 million in prize money, Fully Exempt status on the PGA TOUR through the 2026 season, 500 FedExCup Points, and entry into all remaining Signature Events on the 2024 PGA Tour Schedule as well as THE PLAYERS, The Masters, The PGA Championship and the 2025 Sentry.
Using a SuperStroke 1.0PT putter grip, Knapp made holed a succession of key putts during a final round in which he became to the first player since 1993 to hit only two fairways and hold on to win on the PGA TOUR. He led the field for the week in Strokes Gained: Total, Strokes Gained: Approach to the Hole, Sand Saves, and Birdies Made (with 25).
“Jake Knapp is an extremely deserving winner on the PGA TOUR and an exciting, athletic young player to watch,” says SuperStroke CEO Dean Dingman. “Congratulations to Jake on winning the Mexico Open at Vidanta in heroic fashion and with the SuperStroke Zenergy 1.0PT grip in hand. We look forward to following Jake’s game and successes for years to come.”
The 1.0PT putter grip Knapp used is today’s twist on a classic design used by PGA TOUR players for decades. These putter grips have a smaller overall pistol-style profile with a more pronounced arc under the top hand that extends into the butt area of the grip. The 1.0PT combines a player design with SuperStroke’s No Taper Technology to help golfers maintain even grip pressure and boost the consistency in starting the ball on-line.
Part of SuperStroke’s successful Zenergy line, the 1.0PT features:
Enhanced SPYNE™ Technology – The new SPYNE™ Technology has an improved, embossed ridge along the underside of the grip, engineered to make it easier to square the face at impact.
New Multi-Zone Texturing – Strategically placed textured in high-sensory areas designed to optimize feedback and comfort from the incredibly soft polyurethane outer layer.
No Taper Technology – Our patented No Taper minimizes grip pressure with an advanced parallel design that enables golfers to quiet their hands and add consistency to their stroke.
