Congratulations to New Zealand's Ryan Fox on his heroic one-stroke victory at the 154th Open Championship. The win, sealed with a clutch walk-off birdie putt from just over 11 feet on the 72nd hole, was the 39-year-old, well-traveled player’s third PGA TOUR victory and the first major championship of his career.
Fox, playing with a SuperStroke Zenergy 1.0P 17” putter grip, shot rounds of 72-68-62-68 and led the field with 21 birdies – including four timely birdies down the final nine-hole stretch – to finish 10-under-par and win by a single stroke. He became the first New Zealand-born player to win a major since Bob Charles in 1963.
With this career-changing title, he took home the $3.2 million winner’s purse and 750 FedExCup points.
“SuperStroke congratulates first-time major winner Ryan Fox on his thrilling Open Championship victory,” said SuperStroke Vice President of Marketing Ryan Harris. “With daring play from tee to green and a Zenergy 1.0P 17” in hand, Ryan took home the Claret Jug by playing aggressively and pulling off crucial shots when he needed them most. Seeing him hole that clinching birdie putt on the 18th green, to decide the tournament, instantly became an iconic moment in major championship history.”
