Fujikura was once again trusted as the number one performance golf shaft at the season-ending event in Atlanta, Georgia, where the brand’s flagship VENTUS line helped drive the winner, England’s Tommy Fleetwood to an enthralling victory.
Having made history last month with its ‘Clean Sweep’ as the first specialist driver brand to have been in the winner’s bag at all four Major Championships, Fujikura has further cemented its position as the global leader in golf shaft innovation, with VENTUS continuing to be the preferred choice among the game’s elite in the biggest tournaments.
The champion demanded the very best in power and accuracy to counter the defences of Atlanta’s oldest golf course, with the East Lake par-70 layout stretching to an intimidating 7,440 yards. As well as being one of the longest courses on the PGA Tour, its tight fairways and pin-point landing zones also added to the strategic challenge.
Heading into the final round at East Lake, the winner was able to overcome the pressure of a world-class field, with the added burden of chasing his first career win on US soil.
But with the confidence in his long game coming to the fore, he was able to trust the consistency of VENTUS to devastating effect to counter the par-70 layout, closing out victory using a VENTUS Blue TR 6-X in his driver, while also using a VENTUS Blue TR 6-X in his mini-driver.
To complement another victory and a magnificent championship, Fujikura solidified its position as the preferred choice among the game’s elite, with 43.3% of the field relying on Fujikura shafts in their driver and 35.6% in their woods. Throughout the season, Fujikura has enjoyed a remarkable 61.5 win percentage.
In a field that featured the season’s 30 best-performing players at East Lake, the brand’s dominance in the driver and wood categories was further proof of the consistency and performance that Fujikura and VENTUS helped to deliver.
Marshall Thompson, Tour Representative at Fujikura, said: “That so many of the best players in the world choose VENTUS speaks volumes about the innovation and technology that goes into our driver and wood shafts.
“When there is so much riding on every single shot, you need to have 100 percent confidence in your equipment, whether that’s in a situation like we saw this weekend in Atlanta, or for the club golfer chasing their best score at their local course.
“This is why golfers of all levels choose VENTUS – a shaft line designed to elevate every player’s game.”
