Brentwood, Tenn., – A week that served as the perfect prelude to the Ryder Cup saw Softspikes claim victories on both the PGA TOUR and DP World Tour with Tour Flex Pro once again the spike of choice for the game’s most composed and consistent performers.
At the Procore Championship in Napa, California, the world’s top-ranked player delivered a clinical Sunday performance to secure his 19th PGA TOUR title and continue his remarkable 2025 season. Wearing Tour Flex Pro in his Nike footwear, he closed with a five-under 67 to reach 19 under par, holding off a final-round charge from a fellow U.S. Ryder Cup teammate.
This latest win reaffirms his position as the game’s most dominant player and provides ideal momentum heading into golf’s biggest team event. Across the leaderboard, traction told the story with 35 of the top 37 finishers choosing replaceable spikes over spikeless footwear.
On the DP World Tour, it was another seasoned campaigner, and Ryder Cup vice-captain, who prevailed under pressure at one of Europe’s flagship events. At the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth, a final-round 68 set up a dramatic play-off at 19 under, where he edged out a strong field packed with Team Europe contenders.
Throughout a week of unsettled conditions and variable weather, traction was at a premium. The champion’s hybrid setup, combining Tour Flex Pro and Softspikes Tornado, provided the control and versatility needed to handle every challenge the West Course threw his way.
“Two elite winners, two very different courses, one consistent advantage that’s the power of Softspikes,” said Joe Henderson, President, Softspikes. “Whether it’s firm turf in California or unpredictable conditions in Surrey, Tour Flex Pro continues to deliver the traction, control and confidence the world’s best demand under pressure.”
With the Ryder Cup set to ignite at Bethpage Black, Softspikes will once again be central to the story. Trusted by the world’s leading players on both sides of the Atlantic and chosen for their unrivalled traction and consistency under pressure, Softspikes remain the dominant force in performance footwear. From Napa to Wentworth and now New York the message is clear: winners wear spikes.
Tour players change grips and traction regularly based on course conditions, but amateur golfers rarely think about the impact wearing spikes has on consistency and distance. To achieve optimal performance benefits, golfers should be switching up their spikes every 15 rounds.
