MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- The Celtic Manor Wales Open Champion trusted the launch monitor-tuned performance of ProLaunch Blue in his driver to overcome three early bogeys in the final round and finish in a flurry that was punctuated with a final-hole birdie capping off a spectacular 65. The win not only moved him to fourth on the European Tour Order of Merit, but also solidified his entry into the Open Championship at Carnoustie by virtue of his upward move on the Official World Ranking.

Developed to optimize launch conditions in today's oversized driver designs, ProLaunch Blue incorporates Grafalloy's proprietary Micro-Mesh™ tip technology to strike the perfect balance of stability and spin control while preserving critical feel for valuable feedback. The shaft can be found through all major aftermarket distributors and top OEM's. For more information on the ProLaunch series of shafts including the new ProLaunch Red visit www.grafalloy.com.
