Four of the top five players finished in Softspikes® Cyclone cleat
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., May 13, 2013 … Softspikes®/PrideSports, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 Cleat in Golf, flooded the leaderboard at The Players Championship. Eight of the top ten leading players chose the brand while playing in Ponte Vedra Beach. Of the top Five finishers, four were wearing Softspikes’ Cyclone cleat.
Softspikes’ Cyclone cleat was an instant success when it was launched in 2011. The six rotated legs are designed to counteract the forces seen during a player’s swing. With such demand for this cleat, Softspikes introduced a second generation in 2012 called Cyclone-Ice. Capitalizing on traction has clearly made these cleats top picks for Pros.
“Dominating the leaderboard like we did this weekend is the best feedback on our products that we could ask for,” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “Knowing that professional players see the benefit in our cleat technology confirms that we are developing something that the industry needs.”
Softspikes’ patented Dynamic Cleat Technology allows its cleats to be responsive to all terrains – Tee Boxes, Fairways, Roughs, Greens, etc – providing confidence on every swing of the club. In other words, longer drives, better iron shots and lower scores. For more information on Softspikes, please visit www.softspikes.com.
