Lamkin Grips Deliver Back-to-Back Wins

SAN DIEGO, California, January 31, 2007 — SAN DIEGO — One week after winning the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic on the PGA Tour, Lamkin grips provided tour-winning performance and another tour victory at the Commercialbank Qatar Masters on the European Tour. The 2007 Qatar Masters champion — who is also a two-time U.S. Open champion — played Lamkin Crossline grips and delivered a remarkable birdie-eagle finish at the Doha Golf Club.

“The dramatic victory at the Commercialbank Qatar Masters was a great demonstration of the extreme stability, comfort and traction found in Lamkin grips and particularly of the reliability of the Crossline model,” says Bob Lamkin, president and CEO of the Lamkin Corporation. “Tour pros have trusted the Lamkin Crossline for its tack, durability, and torque-reducing pattern since 1997. Today, Crossline grips have won more than $200 million on pro tours, and the Crossline remains the choice of professional golfers worldwide.”

The winningest grip in Lamkin history, the Crossline grip features a proprietary M2 rubber compound that adds tack and durability while the distinctive pattern increases hand-traction and reduces torque for ultimate performance. The Crossline pattern is available on a variety of models, including full cord, mid-size, jumbo, ladies and junior. In the Crossline cord models, soft cord fabric is strategically positioned throughout the grip, adding maximum traction for all-weather conditions.

“Lamkin has been a world leader in grip innovation for more than 80 years,” adds Lamkin, “and we’re very excited to see Crossline grips continue their 10-year winning streak.”

The oldest golf grip manufacturer in the world, Lamkin has been the chosen grip supplier for nearly every major golf club manufacturer and the preferred grip of professional golfers worldwide. For more information on Lamkin grips, call 800.642.7755 or visit www.lamkingrips.com.
