Softspikes Continues PGA Tour Dominance with Playoff Win at John Deere Classic
Brentwood, Tenn. –
Another dramatic finish on the PGA TOUR saw Softspikes add to its remarkable run of success, with the John Deere Classic champion, wearing Tour Flex Pro, claiming victory in a two-man playoff to secure his second win of the season.
After closing at 18-under-par, the winner held his nerve in extra holes, finding both fairway and green before rolling in a composed par to take the title. It marks the 27th win in the last 30 PGA TOUR events for Softspikes and reinforces why 85% of the field at TPC Deere Run chose to compete in Softspikes.
"This run of results is no accident," said Joe Henderson, President, Softspikes. "Tour Flex Pro continues to deliver when it matters most, giving players the traction and stability they need to perform under pressure. Week after week, we’re seeing the game’s best put their trust in Softspikes."
There was also further success for Softspikes on the DP World Tour, where the winner of the BMW International Open triumphed wearing Pulsar, the game’s most popular spike, adding to an already dominant year across global tours.
"Winning across both the PGA and DP World Tours in the same week shows the versatility of our products,"added Henderson."Different conditions call for different spikes, and we’re proud to offer elite players the choice between Tour Flex Pro and Pulsar, both delivering world-class performance, wherever the game takes them."
Tour players change grips and traction regularly based on course conditions, but amateur golfers rarely think about the impact wearing spikes has on consistency and distance. To achieve optimal performance benefits, golfers should be switching up their spikes every 15 rounds.
