Evolve Golf - maker of the No. 1 performance golf tee on Tour - confirms that the winner and three top-eight finishers at the ADT Championship relied on its patented Epoch tee, marking the company's fifth victory of the season on the LPGA Tour.
A part of 109 major Tour wins - including 31 LPGA Tour and 34 PGA Tour victories - since its 2004 debut, Epoch is the only performance tee with radius posts that span the width of a golf ball dimple. This unique feature creates the lowest coefficient of friction of any tee, eliminating deflection at impact and increasing ball speed and control off the tee
The Epoch has been scientifically proven via a series of rigorous independent robotic tests combined with extensive player testing to provide improvements of up to 12 yards distance and 9 yards accuracy.
Epoch tees are crafted from renewable and recycled materials and are several times more durable than their wooden counterparts. The aesthetic advantages of Epoch have been embraced by a growing and substantial number of world class facilities who have begun replacing wooden tees with Evolve's environmentally friendly offerings.
