GolfPride launches the Tour Wrap MicroSuede featuring added traction

Published

on

GolfPride has announced its latest model to join their Tour Wrap family – the Tour Wrap MicroSuede.

Designed with an additive finishing process that produces a brushed surface finish, The Tour Wrap MicroSuede aims to offer players both increased soft feel and added traction.

As with all of GolfPride’s Tour Wrap grips, the MicroSuede features the family’s wrap style grip construction which is designed for enhanced finger nesting, while the added traction on the latest addition aims to offer golfers a grip which effectively manages moisture in higher humidity areas or wet conditions.

Speaking on the new release, Bruce Miller, product manager, Golf Pride, stated

“The Tour Wrap franchise has an incredibly loyal following. In fact, the Tour Wrap is Golf Pride’s 3rd best-selling grip series. This new MicroSuede technology feels very different than anything else in the family.

While the Tour Wrap 2G is renowned for delivering high tack, the new Tour Wrap MicroSuede provides incredibly soft traction. It instantly conveys confidence, while providing a unique feel, different than any other wrap style grip we have made.”

The Tour Wrap MicroSuede hits retails stores in August and will be available in both standard and midsize in a smoke grey color, and is priced at $5.99 and $6.49, respectively.

    Here’s a question…do tour wraps fit/work equally well for lefties? I always find that as a lefty the spiral goes the wrong way….

    What is the weight and durability? It’s going to be another long, hot, and wet Summer here in CFL where Winn grips last a whole 6 mos.

    FWIW, the Tour Wrap 2g is already soft and tacky. But in the rain it becomes a slip ‘n’ slide for your hands. It would be pretty awesome if these felt the same as the 2g, when dry, and much more tacky when wet.
    All they needs now is a Tour Wrap that’s as firm as the MCC (not +4, <–too soft)

Golf fans left surprised by LIV’s choice of course for its 2024 individual championship event

Published

on

On Tuesday, LIV announced their individual championship will be held at Bolingbrook Golf Club just outside of Chicago. The event will take place September 13-15.

The late announcement is seemingly due to LIV looking for the right course in the Chicago area that has the infrastructure that can accommodate a professional event.

The choice of Bolingbrook Golf Club has received some feedback on social media.

LIV fans were quick to point out that Bethpage Black, which is hosting the 2025 Ryder Cup, can also be played for a reasonable price, making the point the greens fees don’t always equate to the quality of the golf course.

During LIV’s first two seasons, LIV utilized Rich Harvest Farms in Chicago. It’s unclear why that course is off the rotation in favor of Bolingbrook.

Tiger Woods’ Sun Day Red apparel line officially launches with ‘The Hunt’ collection

Published

on

Sun Day Red, the brand from 15-time major champion Tiger Woods and TaylorMade Golf, today launched its initial release of golf, training and lifestyle apparel and accessories. The company’s first-ever release is now available exclusively on SunDayRed.com

This first release, entitled “The Hunt,” is a preview of the colors Tiger will be wearing at the PGA Championship in a few weeks at Valhalla Country Club, in Louisville, KY.

Visual references of friendly rivalry allude to Tiger’s back and forth battle at the 2000 PGA Championship, as well as to the action-oriented nature of the collection’s name. The brand will follow up with additional special releases in May as it unveils the full breadth of the first product line to fans.

“We have been eagerly awaiting this moment since our brand was first announced in February 2024. The outpouring of support from our fans has exceeded our wildest dreams. We are excited for everyone to experience firsthand the exceptional quality of Sun DayRed apparel.” – Brad Blankinship, President, Sun Day Red

For the debut of the initial collection, Sun Day Red is featuring a range of men’s apparel and accessories. Key pieces including:

  • A favorite of Tiger Woods, the Training Dry Hoodie was built upon his insights of needing a lightweight versatile piece—especially in the Florida heat.This is something he can throw it on and head out to the range to hit balls. Plus, it’s a cold-weather essential that won’t weigh him down, no matter what the unpredictable Florida weather has in store.

  • The inception of the 3D Lightweight Hoodie stemmed from one of the first things Tiger told us when we started working together. He said,”I don’t want to feel like I’m wearing anything.” That became the driving force behind creating this innovative 3D knit piece. Tiger loves how the seamless construction allows him to transition from the course to high-profile events like late night TV appearances and charity functions.

Over time, Sun Day Red will broaden its global presence through wholesale expansion in key markets outside of North America, at retail, and broaden its product offering to include footwear, women and kids’ lines
