RT TECHNOLOGIES SHAFTS EARN WIN AT FIRST FULL-FIELD PGA CHAMPIONS TOUR EVENT OF 2009  

The Champions Tour Rookie of the Year, the # 1 Player on the 2008 Champions Tour Money Leader List Picks Up Where He Left Off With RT Powered Victory in Hawaii

Lake Charles, LA, January 28, 2008 – RT Technologies has confirmed that the winner of last weekend’s 2009 Champions Tour Mitsubishi Electric Championship used an RT Midas shaft in his hybrid. The 2008 Champions Tour Rookie of the Year, who was the # 1 player on the 2008 Champions Tour Money Leader List, as well, shot a final round of 68 to finish at 18-under for the tournament. He and RT are off to an outstanding start with this 2009 Champions Tour win. The Mitsubishi Electric Championship was the first “full-field” stroke play event of the Champions Tour season.

“What a great way to start the 2009 year,” RT Technologies President Robbie Newton began. “Congratulations to last year’s Champions Tour Rookie of the Year. Looks like there’s no ‘sophomore jinx’ in his game. We wish him all the best for a great season and are looking forward to a real strong year out on Tour. As always, we thank every player out there that uses or even tries our products. We’re confident that they are the best in the world.”
