Nippon Shaft Reigns in Spain

Nippon Shaft was a winner on the European Tour and a runner up on the PGA Tour over the weekend.

Spain’s 37-year-old reigning Masters champion used the Nippon Shaft N.S. PRO MODUS³ Tour 130 X-flex steel shafts in his irons and wedges to win the Andalucia Valderrama Masters in Sotogrande, Spain.

He shot a 12-under par total of 272 with rounds of 66-71-68-67 at Real Club Valderrama, and took home a winner’s cheque of €333,330.

Meanwhile, in Jeju Island, South Korea, the winner of last month’s PGA TOUR BMW Championship played the Nippon Shaft N.S. PRO MODUS³ Tour 130 X-flex steel shafts in his irons to finish second in a two-man playoff in the CJ Cup at Nine Bridges, a PGA TOUR event. The 33-year-old Australian earned $999,000.

“Nippon Shaft would like to congratulate both of these international stars on the exceptional golf they played last week, and with their great finishes,” said Hiro Fukuda, Sales and Marketing for the company.

Nippon Shaft’s currently has more than 200 players on the global tours utilising steel shafts created by the Japan-based golf shaft manufacturer.
