Srixon Staff Professionals Furyk and Rollins Finish Tied for Fifth at Buick Open
Furyk Sets Buick Open Record
ATLANTA, GA, July 2, 2007 - To say that Warwick
Hills Golf & Country Club is a good layout for Srixon’s staff
professional Jim Furyk is an understatement. Furyk carded a
final-round 2-under-par 70 Sunday, giving him 37 consecutive below-par
rounds in this event. He has posted par-or-better scores in 51 of 52
rounds at Warwick Hills G&CC. In addition, Furyk’s T-5th place
showing last week is his eighth top-10 effort at the Warwick Hills
G&CC, giving him the most top-10 finishes in Buick Open history.
This breaks the mark he previously held with Julius Boros and Tiger Woods.
Srixon Staff Professional John Rollins also enjoyed his week at Warwick
Hills G&CC with back-to-back 67’s over the weekend to also finish
T- 5th.
Furyk showed pinpoint accuracy during the week hitting 80% of greens in regulation with his Srixon I-506 irons, forged wedges and ZUR-C golf ball. John Rollins had 20 birdies and one eagle using the Srixon I-302 irons, forged wedges and ZUR golf ball.
Furyk and Rollins both move up in the FedExCup standings to No. 7 and
No. 9. Rollins moves into the top ten on the money list with earnings
of over $2.1 million. Furyk is currently No. 8 on the money list with
$2.4 million.
