Modesto, CA- Padraig Harrington, Irish professional golfer and Hi-Tec sponsored player, certainly proved that the power does come from your feet by becoming the first European in 102 years to win the British Open, back-to-back.
Harrington, powered by his Hi-Tec CDT Super Power shoes, finished four shots clear of Ian Poulter after a stirring finish that saw him play his final six holes in four-under-par.
The $1,493,000.00 winner's check also guarantees Harrington's place in Europe's Ryder Cup for the match against the States in September catapulting him from 14th to a career-high third in the world rankings.
Harrington comments, “It’s no coincidence that I was wearing the world’s best golf shoes in winning back-to-back Open Championships. In some of the most testing conditions ever, Hi-Tec’s CDT technology gave me amazing balance and stability.”
Simon Bonham, Hi-Tec Global Director of Marketing states, “Hi-Tec is proud to have provided Padraig's footwear for the past 12 years. Such a long term commitment is synonymous with our brand and supports our understanding of footwear needs of world class athletes. The Hi-Tec CDT range of golf footwear is testament to the close working relationship we have with Padraig and we are extremely delighted for Padraig – a true professional who will once again be the perfect ambassador for world golf as Open Champion.”
Harrington has been working alongside leading global footwear brand Hi-Tec for over 12 years and was instrumental in the design and development of the groundbreaking CDT Power concept, proven to be the world’s first game improvement golf shoe technology.
