ATLANTA, GA, April 21, 2008 -
Srixon’s Jim Furyk fired four rounds in the 60s to finish fourth at the Verizon Heritage at Harbour Town Golf Links. The finish was Furyk’s third top-10 finish of the year. John Rollins and Robert Allenby also played well finishing T-14th. Allenby has made 11 consecutive cuts, which is the best current streak on the PGA Tour this year.
Furyk, using Srixon irons and the Z-URC golf ball, recorded 16 birdies and 51 pars for the four rounds. He also had the ball rolling smoothly on the greens, averaging 25.8 putts per round. With another top-10 finish, Furyk moved up 10 spots in FedEx Cup points and is now 17th.
Allenby had a hole-in-one during Friday’s round, the ace coming on the par-3 fourth hole using a Srixon 5-iron and Z-UR golf ball. His 14th-place finish brings him close to reaching the million-dollar mark in earnings this year on tour. Allenby remains in the top 30 in the FedEx Cup points. Rollins, second in the field last week in putts per round, uses the Z-UR golf ball and Srixon irons.
On the European Tour, Srixon’s Mark Brown finished T-5th playing the Z-URS golf ball, I-701 irons and WG-706 wedges.
