Lamkin Tops Champions Tour with Another Victory

(March 21st 2006) SAN DIEGO — Showcasing superior stability and comfort, Lamkin grips continued their unprecedented dominance on the Champions Tour, winning the Toshiba Classic and chalking up their fifth victory in the first seven weeks of the 2006 season. The Champions Tour sophomore won his first Tour title Sunday, closing with a 5-under-66 victory with Lamkin Crossline Tour Black grips.

On the PGA Tour this weekend, Lamkin also tallied four Top 10 money-positions at the Bay Hill Invitational, including second-place with its Crossline series grips.

“Lamkin’s innovative grip designs have provided greater stability, traction and comfort for more than 80 years, and our great success on the Champions, PGA, and other pro tours is very exciting,” says Bob Lamkin, president and CEO of Lamkin Corp. “Professional golfers only trust grips that perform consistently, and Lamkin has always been dedicated to grip designs which maximize club control and stability regardless of a player’s skill level.”

America’s leading grip innovator, Lamkin Corporation is a preferred grip supplier for most major golf club manufacturers and the ‘grip of choice’ for professional golfers around the world. The Crossline series, for example, is designed to reduce torque and increase hand traction with a distinctly soft feel. The latest grip for 2006, the all-new Lamkin Dual Density Torsion Control series is a perfect fit for the majority of golfers and features an eye-catching blue, Laser-Tac™ surface layer and 20 separate, innovative stabilizing bars to reduce torque and increase club control more than any other grip on the market.

So far on the 2006 Champions Tour, Lamkin grips have tallied victories at the MasterCard Championship, Turtle Bay Championship, The ACE Group Classic, Outback Steakhouse Pro-Am, AT&T Classic and, this week’s Toshiba Classic.
