The 2nd place finisher was playing a Graphite Design Tour AD HD wood shaft in his TaylorMade SIM Driver.
“Congratulations to 2021 U.S. Men’s Amateur Champion and 2nd place runner up for giving us such an exciting championship. Today’s golfers are stronger and are being fit into the best equipment in the world and we are excited they were both playing Graphite Design shafts. Graphite Design continues to show the world that their shaft technology and manufacturing continue to bring home some of the finest trophies and medals in golf today” stated Erik Boysen, VP of Tour Promotions, Pro’s Choice Golf Shafts, Inc.

The Tour AD GP, like its predecessors, utilizes premium, aerospace quality 50t carbon-fiber materials in order to deliver the best feeling and performing shaft available to golfers. The Tour GP-4’s are unique and designed for a player that is looking for a light weight shaft with a soft tip to butt profile that will help launch the ball higher. The Tour AD GP-5’s, 6’s, 7’s and 8’s are designed with a very stiff tip and stiffer mid to butt section to promote a mid-launch condition and low spin.
The Tour AD GP also utilizes the latest in graphite material from Toray Industries, Inc., TORAYCA ® T1100G carbon-fiber pre-preg with NANOALLOY ® technology in the tip section of the shaft for additional shaft stability, exceptional feel and precise ball control.
If you are looking for a super-premium graphite golf shaft for your Driver or Fairway woods, the new Tour AD GP may just be for you and the Greatest Performing shaft you ever hit.
