Srixon – New Z-STAR golf ball earns second European Tour win with Anirban Lahiri

Lahiri-Wedge-Cleveland

February 24, 2015 – The Srixon – Cleveland Golf staff player Anirban Lahiri has beaten his compatriot S.S.P. Chowrasia in a play-off to claim an emotional home triumph at the 2015 Hero Indian Open and a second European Tour title just two weeks with the new Srixon Z-STAR XV golf ball.

Lahiri, who won recently the 2015 Malaysian Open, began the final round seven shots off the lead but a closing 69 was enough to force extra holes as overnight leader Chowrasia stumbled to a 76.

The home pair returned to the par five 18th for the play-off and with Chowrasia unable to make par after hooking his tee shot into the trees, Lahiri holed from ten feet for birdie.

“It’s incredible – starting today I didn’t really think I had a chance,” said Anirban Lahiri. “It was one of the toughest days ever that I’ve played golf at Delhi Golf Club and I’m really happy to have accomplished this: it’s a childhood dream”.

Victory moves Lahiri to second on The Race to Dubai and cements his place in the top 50 of the Official World Golf Ranking, with a Masters Tournament invite in April now looking certain. This second win comes in his 41st event at th European Tour.

To complete the victory, Anirban Lahiri played the new Srixon Z-STAR XV golf ball, new Srixon Z Series irons and Cleveland 588 RTX 2.0 wedges. The Z-STAR range, now in its fourth generation, features enhanced SpinSkin technology for improved control from any lie and a new 324 Speed Dimple pattern for enhanced distance and performance in the wind.

Crest Link – The golf clothing brand shines with the European Tour stopover in Asia

Crest-Link-Tienda

February 23, 2015 – Crest Link, the leading golf clothing brand in Asia, has shown its best as the European Tour touches down in Asia, -in the events commissioned with the Asian Tour-, with its logo displayed on the apparel of its sponsored players, such as S.S.P. Chowrasia, Arjun Atwal or Jason Palmer, and on the clothes of the tournament and golf shop staff.

The official apparel brand of the Spanish Open similarly dresses the Maybank Malaysian Open since earlier on, so in addition to equipping the staff of the organization and volunteers this year in Kuala Lumpur G & CC, it had a great layout in the shopping village where it set up a big stall. The eye-catching display of Crest Link shirts, pants, caps and accessories personalized with the logo of the event were so popular that 90% of the stock was sold.

On the course, the best performing golfer equipped by Crest Link is the Indian player S.S.P. Chowrasia, who managed to enter the Top 10 in the Malaysian Open, and last week achieved his best result of the year for the specialist microfiber clothing brand at the European Tour, finishing second in the 2015 Hero Indian Open.

Chowrasia, who holds two victories on the European Tour at the Indian Masters 2008 and Avantha Masters 2011, led the event after the first three rounds in Delhi Golf Club, with 65-67-69, but a bad last day took him to a 76 that was not enough to avoid the play-off against his compatriot Anirban Lahiri, who clinched his second title of the year after the Malaysian Open.
