Tiger Shark's Juli Inkster Scores Big Again on LPGA Tour

March 4, 2010

New 2010 Juli Inkster set from Tiger Shark Due Out in March

LPGA Hall of Famer and Tiger Shark Golf staff player Juli Inkster shot a 69 to tie for the lead after the third round and finished with her best finish on the LPGA since 2008 at the LPGA's HSBC Women's Champions in Singapore. The 49-year-old Inkster led for much of the event and finished T9th with a 5-under 283. Inkster is currently ranked 20th on the official LPGA money list after two events.

To date, Inkster has won 31 tournaments on the LPGA Tour, including seven major championships. She is currently third on the LPGA career money list. She has played on the United States Solheim Cup team eight different times and has won a total of 18 points in Solheim competition, making her the winningest American Solheim Cup player in history.

"Juli has been a tremendous asset to Tiger Shark over the years and we are proud of her continued success on the LPGA Tour," said Tiger Shark President Dean Dingman. "She has been an inspiration to many golfers and we are very fortunate to have her on the Tiger Shark team."

Three years ago, Inkster lent her name and her expertise on club design to the Tiger Shark design team to help manufacture a complete set of clubs designed specifically for women golfers. The Juli Inkster set has become a top seller for Tiger Shark and retailers across the country and the company is launching an all new design due out in late March.

"These are the best performing women's set on the market today", said Inkster when asked about the new set.

The 2010 Juli Inkster set utilizes revolutionary manufacturing methods to provide an entire set that provides the proper lofts and consistent performance from club to club. They have been specifically designed to promote faster swing speeds and high trajectories for female golfers looking to gain distance and accuracy on the course.

To further enhance the set Tiger Shark has added a high fashion Ogio Cougar cart bag with matching head covers. The set includes a high MOI design 460 CC Titanium driver and two matching stainless steel fairway woods. It also includes two hybrids designed to move the weight low and back and provide better launch angles and consistency with tee shots, approach shots and shots out of the rough. The set also includes an EZ alignment technology putter.
