Project X Gains Wins at Greenbrier Classic and Irish Open

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Designed on tour to produce maximum distance and accuracy, Project X shafts garnered wins at The Greenbrier Classic on the PGA Tour and the Irish Open on the European Tour. The double victory showcased the Tour-proven technology of Project X steel shafts and the all-new, spin-reducing Project X wood shafts.

This weekend's winner of The Greenbrier Classic played Project X shafts in his irons and became only the fifth PGA TOUR player to reach the low-round record of 59. He carded nine birdies and an eagle in his final round to earn the 31st win of the year on the PGA Tour for shafts designed and manufactured by True Temper Sports.

Playing the new Project X graphite shafts in his driver and 3-wood and Dynamic Gold shafts in his irons, the Irish Open champion averaged drives of 308 yards en route to a tournament record-tying score of 266.

"Project X is one of the most successful shaft brands in the history of the game, and this year's debut success for the Project X graphite line has been a phenomenal testament to the superior performance characteristics of these shafts," says Craig Nichols, PGA Tour Representative for True Temper Sports. "Already the winningest graphite wood shaft in 2010 on the PGA Tour, our win at the Irish Open marks the ninth win of the season and highlights the momentum that is spreading around the globe for Project X graphite."

True Temper continues to dominate the professional tours. At The Greenbrier Classic, True Temper led the shaft count with 133 iron sets in play, while competing shaft manufacturers fielded only 12 sets.

The new Project X graphite shaft features a unique tapered design that maximizes a player's distance through the precise integration of frequency, weight distribution and launch profiles. The new shaft combines a stable butt section with a constant taper bend profile and reinforces the tip with two additional wraps of super high modulus graphite in the lower third of the golf shaft. The result is a reduction of spin by up to 700 RPM more than other low-spin Tour model competitors. Project X graphite shafts are available in woods and hybrids.
