PING Announces Power Fitter Award Winners

To recognize custom fitters who distinguish themselves by elevating the custom-fitting experience and demonstrating how properly fit clubs translate to better and measurable results on the course, PING today announced its PING Power Fitter Award winners for 2023.

This year’s list includes 346 winners, a mix of accomplished on- and off-course facilities that deliver the game-changing expertise that PING Founder Karsten Solheim envisioned when he pioneered custom fitting more than 50 years ago.

“We may only recognize them once a year, but these honorees are the leaders in their field who deserve to be singled out and recognized every day for elevating the fitting experience,” said John K. Solheim, PING CEO & President. “PING Power Fitters are the best of the best when it comes to delivering an enjoyable fitting experience that ensures golfers are benefiting from all the technology we engineer into every PING club. They are highly trained in our fitting philosophies and techniques while being equipped with the fitting tools and technologies that today’s golfer expects from a fitting session.”

All the winners fit every club in the bag and participate in on-going fitting certification through PING Academy (the company’s on-line education platform) while utilizing a multitude of software applications accessible through PING Co-Pilot, a suite of fitting technologies developed by the company’s fitting science team. PING’s new AFS 3D interchangeable iron-fitting system is among the many tools the fitters rely on to precisely dial in a golfer’s specifications. They are also experts in PING’s product technology and custom-club-building processes, allowing them to communicate all the benefits of choosing to play PING equipment.

As importantly, they understand a custom fitting is just the beginning of a relationship with a golfer. “Custom fitting is more than just recommending specs,” Solheim said. “Our Power Fitters know it’s an opportunity to develop a longtime, loyal customer who puts their trust in their ability to help them get better. With game-tracking technologies like Arccos, the access to data has never been easier or more affordable, allowing fitters to help golfers fine-tune specs and solve other issues, like gapping, based on their on-course performance.”

Solheim believes these fitting experts are also well-positioned to benefit from the tremendous popularity the game is currently enjoying. “The popularity golf has experienced the last several years provides the opportunity to bring more awareness to the benefits of custom fitting. Whether it’s golfers coming back to the game or those new to it, it’s extremely important that they understand the role that custom fitting plays in helping them improve, regardless of ability.”

The full list of winners, arranged alphabetically, is below.
