Champ Spikes dominates golf world with victories on four Tours

MARLBOROUGH, Mass. -- Champ Spikes dominated this weekend’s golf events as the winners of The Memorial on the PGA Tour, The LPGA’s Ginn Tribute, The Wales Open on the European Tour and the Aurora Health Care Championship on the Duramed Futures Tour all chose CHAMP spikes for their traction needs.

On the PGA Tour the story was one that has been heard before, CHAMP Stinger™ on the shoes of the winner, who opted to remove the spikes that came in his shoes as original equipment in favor of the new and improved CHAMP Stinger. The CHAMP Stinger was improved this year to provide more traction and stability to golfers looking for superior all around performance from their spikes. An astounding 72% of the players who chose CHAMP switched from the original spikes that came in their shoes.

It was another tournament victory for CHAMP Stinger at The Ginn Tribute hosted by Annika. While it took one extra hole to decide the winner, it didn’t take any extra time for 75% of the players to choose CHAMP Stinger over the spikes that originally came in their shoes. A staggering 56% of the entire field decided to go with CHAMP for their traction needs.

It was all about CHAMP at the Wales Open this weekend as CHAMP’S traditional metal Cermec® spike provided the winning traction for the champion. The numbers continue to be impressive as CHAMP’s Stinger led the field with 64 players. Of the 101 players, including the top seven finishers, an overwhelming 65% chose CHAMP.

On the Duramed Futures Tour, Mindy Kim won her second consecutive tournament, firing a final round of 1-over-par 73 on Sunday. She posted a three-day total of 3-under-par 213. All of the top 10 finishers sported CHAMP spikes.
