PIPE Putter Leads Player to # 2 Putting Rank, Top 5 Finish at Senior Players Championship
July 12th, 2005 - The PIPE Putter by Nickent Golf once again helped a tour player to their best putting performance of the season, this time in a Major event on the Champions Tour. In its first week in the bag, the PIPE Putter drastically improved the 5th place finisher’s putts per round from an average of 29.46 to 26.3. This impressive 3-stroke swing led the player to a 2nd place ranking in putting and a 5th place finish at the Ford Senior Players Championship. Previously the 22nd ranked putter on the Champions Tour, the PIPE catapulted the player up to the # 2 putting ranking in the second major tournament of the 2005 Champions Tour.
The PIPE player is a 3-time PGA Tour Major champion, including the 1983 U.S. Open. He is a 10-time PGA Tour winner and 19-time winner on the Champions Tour. His putting had slipped a fraction in 2005 from previous years until he found the benefits the PIPE’s 3–dimensional aid on the practice green of the Ford Senior Players Championship. A few hours of work with the PIPE and it replaced his traditional anser-like putter for the start of the tournament. His big finish at the major event moved him from 59th to 27th in the Charles Schwab Cup Points standings.
The PIPE has now helped players on all the 4 top U.S. Tours have their best putting rounds of the 2005 season. Players on the PGA Tour, LPGA Tour, Nationwide Tour and now Champions Tour have posted their lowest amount of putting strokes with the PIPE lining up their putts.
