Ping launches limited-release Slam PLD Collection

Published

on

To conclude its ‘Ping Slam’ celebration, Ping has made available one of 35 sets ($4,990) of all four history-making putter heads (Pal, Pal 2, Zing 2 and Anser), inclusive of a custom-made table-top display case for their home or office.

Customers will also receive a PLD Custom putter experience as part of the purchase (valued at $1,490), which includes a precision milled PLD putter built to their exact specifications and a fitting session with one of Ping’s Master Putter Fitters in the Ping Putting Lab or virtually.

The ‘Ping Slam’ celebration recognizes a historic achievement from 1988 when all four major championships were won with a Ping putter. It had never happened before and hasn’t happened since for any putter brand.

Starting at this year’s Masters, Ping offered precision-milled versions of the putter models that won the four major titles in 1988, with 88 of each being available on Tuesday of the major event. In each case, the putters sold out in less than 10 minutes.

“We’re excited to offer golfers this special opportunity to be part of the ‘Ping Slam’ celebration. The detail and precision of the putters and the craftsmanship of the display makes for a stunning presentation. It’s an attention-getting, conversation-starting addition to any golfer’s home or office. On top of that, the buyer also receives their own PLD Custom putter, precision milled and custom built at our Phoenix headquarters. It’s a great way to be part of Ping’s history while having access to the tour-level putter experience offered through our PLD program.” –  John A. Solheim, Ping’s Executive Chairman

The “Ping Slam” PLD Collection will be available for purchase on pingpld.com, beginning at 2pm ET on Tuesday, December 5.

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
