SRIXON'S STENSON FINISHES THIRD AT WGC-ACCENTURE MATCH PLAY
BROWN WINS ASIAN TOUR'S SAIL OPEN

ATLANTA, February 25, 2008 -

Srixon staff professional Henrik Stenson had another great showing at the World Golf Championships – Accenture Match Play Championship with a third place finish. This is Stenson’s third top-three finish in the World Golf Championships; he won it in 2007 and tied for third in 2005. His third place finish was worth $575,000 and moves him into the top spot on the European Tour's Order of Merit. Stenson recorded the tournament’s third-longest match winning streak with 10 wins (2007 – 2008).

Stenson showed pinpoint accuracy all week with his Srixon I-701 irons and Z-UR golf ball. The recently introduced 701 irons feature a pocket cavity structure, which effectively lowers and deepens the I-701’s center of gravity allowing for an extremely stable clubhead through impact and making it easier to get the ball airborne for high, straight iron shots.

Srixon staff professional Mark Brown won the Sail Open on the Asian Tour. Brown plays Srixon I-701 Tour irons and the Z-URS golf ball.
