Zero Friction Golf Tee has a major success at U.S. Open in Pinehurst

ITASCA, IL. - For Zero Friction Golf Tees, the U.S. Open was a major success at a major tournament.

Zero Friction Golf Tees, which are quickly being used by more and more top PGA Tour professionals, had two top-5 finishes and one top-10 finishes at the U.S. Open, which was played at the famed No. 2 course at the Pinehurst Resort in Pinehurst, NC.

"It is incredible that 3 out of the top-10 finishes at the US Open were using a Zero Friction Golf Tee. This is a real testament of how effective our product is," says Bob White, Director of Sales and Marketing of Excel Golf Tee, Inc., the manufacturer Zero Friction Golf Tees.

The success went even further as five PGA Tour professionals used the unique three-prong tee system to finish in the top-25 and 13 of the 20 players teeing it up with Zero Friction Golf Tee made the cut.

The Zero Friction Golf Tee has been a success on the PGA Tour ever since its debut less than two months ago. The tee has had a victory and two top-10's at the Bank of America Colonial, a second place finish at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, two top-10 finishes at the EDS Byron Nelson Championship and a top-10 at the Wachovia Championship.

"The word is out," says White. "More and more players are learning that in their 'drive for success' the Zero Friction Golf Tee is a must-have product to use."

The Zero Friction tee provides less resistance between the golf ball and the golf tee for longer, straighter drives. Its reduced spin rate fights dispersion, thereby keeping the ball on line and in the fairway.
