SENSICORE WIN COUNT REACHES 24
Seven-time Tour runner-up captures first victory
Memphis, TN - October 20, 1997 - By sinking a ten foot birdie putt on the first
hole of a sudden death playoff, this week’s winner of the Michelob Championship
in Williamsburg, VA ended his streak of 92 starts on the PGA tour without a win.
With the win, the former four-time, first-team All-American from Georgia Tech
vaulted his way to number seventeen on the official money list securing him a
spot in the season ending Tour Championship.
The twenty-five year old champion plays True Temper Dynamic Gold® steel shafts
with SensiCore™ technology. SensiCore™ is a patented vibration damping
technology that eliminates up to 70% of the vibration in a steel shaft. The
result is a shaft that offers the consistent performance of steel, and the
benefit of a soft, solid feel at impact. He also plays a True Temper EI-70®
graphite shaft in his driver. With this win, players using SensiCore™ technology
have won over 20 professional tournaments worldwide in 1997.
True Temper Sports is the largest producer of golf shafts in the world and is
consistently the number one shaft on the PGA tour. With headquarters in Memphis,
Tennessee, True Temper manufactures a full line of steel and graphite shafts.
