BRENTWOOD, Tenn., May 3, 2010 … Softspikes®, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and #1 Cleat on TOUR, backed by golf’s hottest new cleat, BLACK WIDOW® TOUR™, not only captured a victory on the Nationwide Tour at the Stadion Athens Classic at UGA, but 37 of the top 51 finishers donned the Softspikes brand. Adding to another successful weekend, the Softspikes cleat arsenal captured 70% of the plastic cleat field at the PGA TOUR’s Quail Hollow Championship according to the Independent Darrell Survey.

This acquisition essentially formed the world’s premier golf accessories company, as Pride and Softspikes are the world’s leading golf tee and golf cleat lines, respectively. Today, PrideSports is the world leader in the design and manufacture of cleats, spikes and receptacles for the entire golf footwear industry.
