LEWES, DE (July 31, 2003) Cyclonic Inc., makers of high performance
golf shoes
for twenty-first century golfers with a modern sense of style, announced
today that
Kevin Gessino-Kraft won today’s Legends Group Classic wearing
the new Cyclonic
Tour Series golf shoes.
During the four days of play, Gessino-Kraft wore each of the four
new Tour Series
styles, which include the highly popular slip-on Finley, the sporty
white Logan, the
classic broque style Lennox and the contemporary Niels. Gessino-Kraft
was one
of the first professional golfers to select Cyclonics to wear on
tour when the
company launched four years ago.
"I feel confident and play better when I know I look good
on the course," said
Gessino-Kraft. "Ironically, I ended up wearing all four Tour
Series styles, since
they just each happened to coordinate well with each day’s
clothing. I’d say my
style’s more progressive and modern than the typical golfer
-- both on and off the
course. Cyclonic fits that look. "
This is Gessino-Kraft’s second win in the Gateway Beach Series,
the first being the
Intel Classic in June. In today’s day of play, Gessino-Kraft
was seven ahead with seven
holes to go. He ended five under today, winning the tournament at
fifteen under par.
Prior to the Gateway Tour, Gessino-Kraft had three wins and was
the leading money
winner in the 2002/2003 NGA/Hooters Winter Tour.
Cyclonic's sponsorship strategy has been to select young golfers
in the tours that serve
as springboards to the PGA Tour who demonstrate promise and who
need sponsorship
support to remain active tour professionals. Sponsored players are
selected for their
talent and their spirit.
To help more aspiring golfers learn the ins and outs of a career
in golf and the life of a
touring pro, Gessino-Kraft will be providing a written tour log
on the www.cyclonicgolf.com
website. The log will include his thoughts of life on the tour,
challenges he faces and
successes to share. Visitors can post questions which Gessino-Kraft
will answer.
"We knew from the start we had a winner with Kevin. Obviously,
not just for his sense of style,
but his playing ability, too,” said Tom Mandel, president,
Cyclonic, Inc. “Kevin is what we’re all
about – a passion for golf and a drive to create a personal
style that gives confidence on
the course. He has that hungry, independent spirit that’s
reflective of our core customers.”
