SuperStroke Helps Three-Time Major Champion

Needing to jump 6 spots to earn a playoff spot, the former British and PGA Champion turned to a SuperStroke Slim Lite for help on the greens. The Slim Lite allowed the 3-time major champion to keep the putter square and the wrists quiet at impact through its patented non-tapering design. The Irish born golfer finished the tournament inside the top 125 in points, giving him entry into the first FedEx Cup playoffs event.

"If I have four good weeks, I could win the FedEx Cup and have a great year and that's what the Playoffs are about," the player said. "It gives everybody who gets into them an opportunity."

SuperStroke Golf also earned 2 top 20 finishes on the European Tour, bringing the total money won to just under $10 million this season and the player count to 99.
"To have almost 100 Tour players use our product shows that when you have technology that really works, the best players in the world will find it," said Dean Dingman, President of SuperStroke Golf.
