TORRINGTON,
Conn. — This year’s 23-year-old
champion played premium Rifle steel shafts
in her irons to win the 2005 U.S. Women’s
Open Championship in Cherry Hills Village,
Colo. The win was the first-ever tour victory
for the young South Korean, and the biggest
purse in women’s golf.
“
We’re very excited to win the biggest tournament
of the LPGA season,” says John Lauchnor,
president and CEO of Royal Precision. “Rifle-branded
shafts offer incredibly advanced engineering
which combines multiple technologies to significantly
enhance energy transfer to the ball at impact
and to generate optimum trajectories with stability
and control.”
Providing tighter shot dispersion; better control;
greater distance with improved accuracy; and
a smooth, yet solid feel at impact, the benefits
of Rifle shafts have been showcased by top-ranked
tour players worldwide. Only Rifle steel shafts
offer four unique technologies for unmatched
performance: Frequency Matching that perfectly
matches a set of clubs through electronic calibration;
Stepless Design Technology that eliminates the
energy-robbing ‘steps’ found on most
other steel shafts, and provides greater accuracy
and a smooth, yet solid, feel at impact; Patented
Internal ‘Rifling’ that transfers
energy more efficiently than other steel shafts,
reduces vibration and increases distance; and
advanced Flighted Technology that features produces
variable ball trajectories for different clubs
within a single set.
For 2005, Rifle-branded steel shafts are celebrating
their 10th year of dominance among premium steel
shafts. So far this season, Rifle-branded shafts
have been victorious at the Mercedes Championship,
FBR Open, AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am,
Chrysler Classic of Tucson, WGC-Accenture Match
Play Championship, Honda Classic, BellSouth Classic,
MCI Heritage and The Barclays Classic on the
PGA Tour and the Bruno’s Memorial Classic
on the Champions Tour. Internationally, Rifle
shafts have also won the BMW Asian Open, New
Zealand Open, BMW Championship, Qatar Masters
and Dubai Desert Classic.
