Ecco – Fred Couples wears BIOM Hybrid to win the Charles Schwab Cup

Fred-Couples-ECCONovember 8, 2013 – The leading global manufacturer of innovative footwear Ecco has confirmed that staff player Fred Couples wore its award-winning BIOM Hybrid golf shoes featuring E-DTS outsole technology en route to capturing the Charles Schwab Cup Championship this past weekend at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco.

Showcasing the Ecco logo on his headwear, Couples finished at 17-under 267 and cruised to a six-shot victory. This latest title -his ninth in four seasons on the Champions Tour marked Couples’ 10th top-10 of the season and moved him to third on the year-end rankings.

“I did not miss many shots,” said Fred Couples, who indicated he’ll play more tournaments in 2014. “I got the lead and I kept it. Just winning, even if it’s a club championship, you’re thrilled.”

Like all Ecco shoes in the hybrid category the company pioneered, BIOM Hybrid is built atop the patented E-DTS outsole boasting approximately 100 moulded traction bars and 800 traction angles. Constructed from TPU -a highly durable, wear-resistant material- these elements provide superb, Tour-quality grip.

E-DTS combines with another patented innovation – Natural Motion technology – to provide the exceptional and truly distinct levels of comfort, stability and traction for which Ecco is renowned.

“Fred’s ball-striking has always been among the world’s best, so when hot with the putter he can compete with the best players on any tour,” says Jesper Thuen, Global Sponsorship, PR & Event Manager – Ecco Golf. “The timing is perfect for him to carry a good feeling and momentum into next season.”

Ecco Golf is distributed in Spain and Portugal by Holiday Golf company.
