Evolve Golf's Epoch Tee helps win the LPGA Tour's Evian Masters

SUNSET BEACH, N.C. -- Evolve Golf - maker of the No. 1 performance golf tee on Tour - confirms its Epoch tee was used by the winner of the LPGA Tour's Evian Masters, contested this past weekend at Evian Masters Golf Club in France.

Since its 2004 debut, the Epoch has been part of 127 major Tour wins, including 34 LPGA and 48 PGA Tour victories, and is the only performance tee with radius posts that span the width of a golf ball dimple. This unique feature creates the lowest coefficient of friction of any tee, eliminating deflection at impact and increasing ball speed and control. It has been scientifically proven via a series of rigorous independent robotic tests combined with extensive player testing to provide improvements of up to 12 yards distance and nine yards accuracy.

"Our tees are rapidly replacing both wood and other alternatives on all major Tours," says Evolve Golf Founder and CEO, BJ Maloy. "The best players in the world have discovered that putting the Epoch in play is the quickest and easiest way to improve distance and accuracy off the tee."

Like all Evolve Golf products and packaging, the Epoch is environmentally friendly. Made from recycled materials, the design is significantly more durable than its wooden counterparts and not harmful to mower blades.

In early 2010, Evolve Golf introduced the Epoch-S3, featuring the same innovative and durable design that has made the original Epoch the most popular performance tee on the PGA Tour. It incorporates the company's groundbreaking Sweet Spot System, a proprietary internet application that takes the guess work out of consistently teeing at the proper height by aligning the ball with the driver's "sweet spot," assuring optimum distance on every drive. Players simply enter a make and model of driver and the recommended depth of insertion is displayed, which coincides with markings on the tee stem.
