Newton Fast Motion Shaft’s Strong Run Continues as Miguel Ángel Jiménez Earns Second Win Since Making the Switch

Miguel Ángel Jiménez captured the Kaulig Companies Championship on the PGA TOUR Champions equipped with  Newton’s Fast Motion Shaft. 

The victory marked his third major champioinship title on the PGA TOUR Champions -and the second major championship win with a Newton Motion shaft, following Doug Barron’s major championship victory earlier in 2024. 

Jimenéz secured his 17th PGA TOUR Champions title, while maintaining his number one ranking, with a birdie on the second sudden-death playoff hole. The victory is his fourth title of the season and his second since putting the Newton Fast Motion shaft in the bag just five starts ago. Since debuting the shaft at the Regions Tradition in mid-May, Jiménez has posted two wins and one-top-10 finish, highlighting the consistency and confidence he’s found with the Newton Fast Motion in play. 

 

One of the most decorated and charismatic figures in professional golf, Jiménez has tallied 45 global victories across the PGA TOUR Champions, DP World Tour and other international events. He is a four-time Ryder Cup team member for Europe and remains a dominant force on Tour in 2025.

 

“The momentum Miguel has speaks for itself, and we’re proud to be a part of his success,” said Dr. Greg Campbell, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Newton Golf. “Congratulations to Miguel for another incredible win. When elite players trust our shafts in the biggest moments, it’s the ultimate validation of the innovation and precision we build into every product.”

 

The Fast Motion shaft has already proven itself on Tour, with 10professionals – who have a combined 10 major championships in their careers - putting it into play across the PGA TOUR Champions and LPGA Tour. Overall, more than 40 professionals on these tours are gaming Newton Motion shafts. 

 

Building on the four key innovations of the Newton Motion shaft—includingElongated Bend Profile, Kinetic Energy Storage, Symmetry 360 Construction, and Variable Bend Profile—the Newton Fast Motion series caters specifically to players who demand lighter shafts without compromising stability, straightness, or control.

 

 

Light Yet Stable: High-Modulus Toray Carbon Fibers

 

The Newton Fast Motion shafts are constructed with advanced high-modulus Toray carbon fibers, known for their superior strength-to- weight ratio. This design reduces shaft weight by approximately 10 grams compared to the Motion series, enabling faster swing speeds whilemaintaining tight dispersion, exceptional straightness, and stability. Players can feel the shaft load naturally during the swing. This makes it easier to time and sequence the motion for more consistent strikes.

 

“Roughly 30–40% of driver shafts in Regular and Stiff flexes fall under the55-gram weight category, serving golfers who seek added swing speed without losing control,” added Dr. Greg Campbell, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Newton Golf. “This new line reflects our commitment to supporting the growing market segment of golfers seeking additional swing speed by utilizing lighter driver shafts.”

 

Distinctive Design: Red-to-Gold Finish That Changes Under Sunlight

 

The Newton Fast Motion series features a striking red-to-gold finish thatshifts color under sunlight. Every shaft is proudly Made in the U.S.A. at Newton Golf’s St. Joseph, Missouri facility, enabling tight quality control and supporting growing demand from club fitters, retailers, and international distributors.

 

A Lighter Shaft Powered by Newton's Four Core Technologies

 

● Elongated Bend Profile – Optimized for fairway wood lengths, the Fast Motion shaft flexes across its full length—from grip to tip— delivering improved clubhead speed.

● Kinetic Energy Storage Optimization – Proprietary constructionenables efficient energy storage during the swing and controlled

release at impact for a significant boost in exit velocity.

● Symmetry 360™ Construction – This design eliminates shaftspine, providing consistent flex regardless of clocking position— critical for adjustable drivers and fairway woods.

● Variable Bend Profile – Each flex is tuned based on swing speedrather than age or gender. Slower swings benefit from greater flex

and torque, while faster swings require the opposite.

 

Additionally, the Newton Fast Motion shaft replaces traditional flex labels(Ladies, Senior, Stiff, etc.) with Newton’s proprietary DOT system. Ranging from one to seven dots, the system enables precise matching of shaft performance to individual swing profiles—allowing fitters to fine-tune performance more intuitively than legacy flex categories.

 

With demand for lightweight performance shafts growing—particularlyamong club fitters and moderate swing speed players—Newton Golfbelieves the Fast Motion series is well-positioned to drive continued growthand brand momentum throughout 2025 and beyond.
