SuperStroke Signs Jordan Spieth As Global Ambassador
WIXOM Mich. – SuperStroke, the leading innovators in putter grip technology, has signed 2013 PGA Tour Rookie of the Year Jordan Spieth as a global ambassador for the brand.
Spieth, who plays SuperStroke’s new Flatso Ultra grip, played a prototype of it in 2013 and finished the season tied for ninth in putting average. He had nine Top 10 finishes in his first full season on the PGA Tour including his first win at John Deere Classic. He finished the 2013 season ranked 10th on the money list and ranked 22nd in the Official World Golf Rankings. He was also a Captain’s Pick on the winning Presidents Cup Team.
“We’re so excited to make Jordan a part of our team,” said Dean Dingman, President SuperStroke Golf. “With his great success on Tour last year and all that he accomplished as a rookie, we think his future is going to be unbelievable.”The Flatso Ultra is a 1.10 inch in diameter, 82 gram grip features SuperStroke’s parallel design technology, a new patent pending pentagonal shape and flat top design.
“The characteristics of the Flatso line inhibit wrist action and promote shoulder rotation for added consistency in your putting stroke,” said Jon Luna, SuperStroke USA Marketing Director. “The pentagonal shape allows players looking for the feel of a pistol grip an option in the SuperStroke line.”
