Fujikura is celebrating another global Tour victory after the winner negotiated a demanding week on one of the UK’s most challenging inland courses, relying on the performance and stability of VENTUS on a course where precision from the tee proved essential.
Host of the European-based Tour’s showpiece tournament since 1984, the famous venue - one of the most iconic in the UK - offers a unique test to players with tightly lined fairways surrounded by heavy woodland, towering pine trees and heather. But under the most intense pressure to find the fairway, the winner was able to close out victory - with four birdies over his last five holes - using a VENTUS Black 6-X shaft in his driver.
Designed with advanced VeloCore+ technology, the VENTUS Black 6-X would provide the stability, accuracy and distance needed to conquer one of the Tour’s toughest layouts against a world-class leaderboard.
Across the elite field, Fujikura delivered another dominant showing as the number one driver and wood shaft in the field: 40.3% trusted Fujikura in their driver with 42.1% in their wood set-up. The victory - even more impressive as the champion was making his debut in the event - marks Fujikura’s 14th win of the season on the Tour.
Pat McCoy, Director of Tour Operations at Fujikura, said: “It was a fantastic performance from the champion and a great example of VENTUS supporting a player when it mattered most. On a course where control is so important, particularly with the longer clubs, the ability to deliver a consistent ball flight and stay committed to each shot is crucial. VENTUS has become trusted by so many of the world’s best players because of that combination of stability and feel, and it was great to see the technology helping the champion produce the golf required to win this week.”
The victory in Surrey adds to an impressive 2026 for Fujikura, with the brand celebrating multiple victories within the men’s game, including two Major wins. From the Tour-proven VENTUS to Fujikura's AXIOM iron-shaft series, there is a performance shaft for every swing, with a commitment to custom fitting ensuring golfers of all abilities can experience the same technology trusted by the world's best players.
