Fourteen’s Chad Collins secures PGA TOUR card for 2014-2015
IRVINE, Calif. (Sept. 30, 2014) – Throughout the 2013-2014 season, Fourteen Golf, one of the industry’s premier golf club manufacturers, has consistently been in the bag of champions on the PGA TOUR, Web.com Tour and LPGA TOUR.
“The success our clubs are having at the highest levels of the game reaffirms our commitment to crafting the best 14 clubs for each and every golfer,” said Marcy Kamoda, the COO of Fourteen Golf. “From the RM-12, which we consider to be the best wedge in golf, to our new Type 7 hybrid iron, Fourteen Golf is in play and delivering championship quality results for the best professionals in golf.”
Chad Collins, a longtime ambassador of Fourteen Golf, played his way into the Top 50 on the Web.com Tour, earning his PGA TOUR card for 2014-2015. The next season opens with the Frys.com Open on Oct. 9 at the North Course of the Silverado Resort and Spa in Napa, Calif.
Collins, who played in 28 events on the PGA TOUR in 2013-2014 and recorded a Top 10 finish at the Humana Challenge in partnership with the Clinton Foundation, put together a strong push to close out the season. Punctuated by a Top 10 finish at the Web.com Tour Championship, Collins secured his PGA TOUR card for the upcoming season.
Also on the PGA TOUR, Fourteen Golf’s Type 7 hybrid iron was in play for one of the hottest players during the FedEx Cup Playoffs, leading to eight Top 10 finishes on the season, including the final two tournaments of the FedEx Cup Playoffs, propelling him to No. 14 in the final FedEx Cup standings.
On Sept. 21, Fourteen Golf also was in the bag of the winner of the Yokohama Tire LPGA Classic at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail at Capitol Hill in Prattville, Ala. The RM-12 was in play as the champion birdied four of the final eight holes to secure the win.
