Bridgestone Golf x Period Correct Collab Celebrates Golf and Car Culture
COVINGTON, Ga. – (November 6, 2024) – Bridgestone Golf today announced a collaboration with fashion car culture brand Period Correct on the launch of a limited-edition golf and lifestyle apparel collection. The premium DRIVE capsule of unisex shirts, sweatshirts, hats, and more is available now exclusively at BridgestoneGolf.com.
Period Correct’s position as a car culture fashion brand that focuses on automotive nostalgia and timeless aesthetics made it a natural partner for a collaboration with Bridgestone Golf, whose parent company has been a leader in the automotive category for nearly 100 years. Specifically, the exclusive collection celebrates vintage Bridgestone advertising campaigns that connect the company’s influence in both car and golf culture.
“Golf is evolving and bringing in new audiences, and that’s making the game more popular than ever,” said Dan Murphy, President of Bridgestone Golf. “We want to find impactful and authentic ways to introduce Bridgestone to that new generation of players. This collaboration uniquely leverages our car and golf cultures to meet new audiences through a shared passion.”
The Bridgestone Golf x Period Correct capsule includes a number of premium items that will appeal to both golf and auto culture fans alike. The capsule includes golf caps and a bucket hat, T-shirts, sweatshirts, a quarter-zip pullover, Bridgestone’s TOUR B X golf balls complete with custom Period Correct logo, and more. All the items in the DRIVE capsule are limited and will not be offered again once they’re gone.
“Cars and golf share a unique connection – both require precision, performance, and a true passion for craftsmanship,” said Bryan Calvero, Founder of Period Correct. “With this collaboration with Bridgestone Golf, we’re merging the worlds of motorsport and the greens, celebrating a lifestyle defined by design, dedication, and the thrill of the experience. It’s about bringing together two passions in a way that speaks to enthusiasts of both.”

Nippon Shaft Players Win on LET and JLPGA Tours
CARLSBAD, CA – Two players used Nippon Shaft steel shafts in their irons and wedges last weekend to win on the Ladies European Tour and the Japan LPGA.
The 28-year-old Englishwoman used N.S.PRO MODUS³ Tour 125 and Tour 120 steel shafts in her irons and wedges, respectively, to win the Aramco Team Series in dominating fashion at Riyadh Golf Club in Saudi Arabia. A hero at the Solheim Cup earlier this year, she shot 18-under par total in the 54-hole event, recording rounds of 65-67-66—198, and earned €69,000 (or $75,000) for the 3-shot victory, her fourth on the LET. She has two LPGA victories.
Meanwhile, a 21-year-old Japanese woman earned her eighth victory of the year on the JLPGA using the N.S.PRO MODUS³ Tour 120 in her irons and wedges to win a six-hole playoff at the U.S. LPGA-sanctioned Toto Japan Classic at Seta Golf Course in Japan. The champion earned $300,000 for her victory and – perhaps more importantly – her LPGA Tour card. The tournament was shortened to 54 holes because of Tropical Storm Kong Rey.
More than 300 players on the PGA Tour, LPGA Tour, European Tour and Korn Ferry Tour use Nippon Shaft’s MODUS³ series steel shafts to help gain their desired distance, accuracy, and trajectory.
Nippon Shaft products are available globally either as stock or custom shafts in many of the world’s top iron brands.

Richland Opens At Reynolds Lake Oconee
GREENSBORO, GA – Richland—the seventh golf course at Reynolds Lake Oconee—has officially opened for play. The new 18-hole layout was created by acclaimed course architect Tom Fazio by combining nine holes from his existing National course with nine all-new holes.
This gives Reynolds Lake Oconee two Fazio designs (Richland and The National) along with courses from Jack Nicklaus (Great Waters), Rees Jones (The Oconee), Jim Engh (Creek Club), and two by Bob Cupp (The Preserve and The Landing).
The new Richland turns the Bluff nine from the original, Fazio-designed National—with some recent modifications—into holes 1 through 5 and 15 through 18. The new holes, 6 through 14, traverse the peninsula of Reynolds and tumbles down to the Richland side of Lake Oconee. The resulting layout provides plenty of challenge with fescue-lined fairways, numerous bunkers, and dramatic elevation changes.
Among the changes to the nine Bluff holes were removing or repositioning bunkers, adding new ones, and combining smaller bunkers to create larger ones. Some greens have been reshaped and/or moved, often bringing the lake more into play. New fescue native areas and low-mow chipping areas were also added on some holes.
The new nine utilizes significant elevation change to put an emphasis on club selection and angle of attack. Players will encounter doglegs, a deep valley and big ravine, plus sloping greens and strategically placed bunkering. They’ll also have the chance to refresh themselves at a new halfway house – The Turn — between holes 9 and 10. The Turn is a mobile food truck that will serve burgers, sandwiches, wraps and a full array of beverages.
The new Richland—which is the second fully private golf course accessible only to Reynolds Lake Oconee Platinum members—meanders through the 500-acre Richland Pointe community, which opened three years ago. Its centerpiece is Richland Pointe Village, which features a globally inspired restaurant, a state-of-the-art wellness center with TechnoGym equipment, Reynolds’ first on-site, members-only spa, and lakefront pool facilities.
