Eighty-three per cent of players in the recent U.S. Open Championship in San Francisco, won by Webb Simpson, used grips by Confederation of Professional Golf Partners, Golf Pride, according to Darrell Survey Company statistics.
The data showed that 129 of the 156 players in the field had Golf Pride grips on the majority of clubs in the bag, with 87 players – more than half the field – using the Golf Pride Tour Velvet® model.
Additionally, 23 players – more than were using any single competitor brand – played with high-performance and colorful Golf Pride New Decade™ MultiCompound grip models.
“The U.S. Open is one of the most prestigious and exciting golf tournaments in the world,” said Jim Ulrich, global tour promotions manager for Eaton’s Golf Grip Division. “The fact that so many elite players consistently trust our grips under these intense conditions speaks to the quality and performance of Golf Pride grips.”
