(Austin, TX) It was another dominating week for RIFE Putters on The Champions Tour. Denis Watson rolled his RIFE 2 Bar Mallet to a birdie on the final hole and a one stroke victory at The FedEx Kinko's Classic. It was the 2nd win of 08' for Watson and the 4th win of the year for RIFE Putters on the Champions Tour. Since switching to a RIFE Putter in 07', Watson has won 4 times including last years Senior PGA Championship. It was also fitting that Watson finished # 1 in the putting stats for the week averaging 1.564 putts per green. Completing the trifecta, RIFE Putters won the Darrell-Survey putter count with 27 total putters in play, an astonishing 14 putter victory over its nearest competitor Titleist with 13. Another big win for RIFE was the fact that 5 of the top 10 players at The FedEx Kinko's Classic had a RIFE Putter in the bag. The list included, Denis Watson (2 Bar Mallet,) Tim Simpson (2 Bar Hybrid,) John Cook (Cayman,) John Ross (2 Bar Hybrid,) and Lonnie Nielsen (Proto-Mid Blade.) Just these players alone earned over $500,000 combined which was 1/3 of the total prize money available.
