SAN DIEGO — A world leader in innovative grip design, Lamkin provided the grip stability, feel and performance that locked up second-place and two third-place money positions at the PGA Tour’s first major of 2006 — THE PLAYERS’ Championship.

Overall, Lamkin grips won four of the top eight positions with four different models of high-performance grips — Crossline Mid-size (2nd); Tour Black Full Cord (T3); Classic Half Cord (T3); and Crossline Paddle Cord (8th).

“THE PLAYERS Championship is traditionally one of game’s greatest events, played in a very tough venue, so it’s very exciting for us to see Lamkin grip players capturing some of the top money,” says Bob Lamkin, president and CEO of the Lamkin Corporation. “For more than 80 years, Lamkin has provided premium, high-performance grips with the industry’s most innovative research and design, and we are committed to bringing an entirely new level of performance to the game.”

>From the Crossline to the new Dual Density Torsion Control, Lamkin grips provide the right feel for any player. The Crossline series, for example, features a distinctive pattern designed to increase hand traction while the latest grip for 2006, the Dual Density Torsion Control, offers a softer, tacky surface layer and innovative stabilizing bars that reduce torque and increase club control.

Family-owned and operated, Lamkin has produced the highest quality golf grips on the market for more than eight decades. For more information on Lamkin grips, call 800.642.7755 or visit lamkingrips.com
