PEAKS selected as Official Sunglass for The Palmer Cup

June 9th, 2009

After the Golf Coaches Association of America introduced PEAKS to their membership at their annual meeting, PEAKS were selected to be the Official Sunglass for the 11th Annual Palmer Cup. The Palmer Cup has established a new tradition in college golf and an appealing additional goal for the leading college golfers with its unique format, which pits eight of America's top collegians against eight of the finest from Europe. U.S. Head Coach Mike McGraw from Oklahoma State University and Jon Knauer, U.S. Assistant Coach from the University of Arizona, encouraged players to embrace the eye & vision protection PEAKS provided because they also have proven to improve competitive performance on the golf course. Coach McGraw stated "I've never seen a lens as magnificent as the PeakVision lens. The lighting and clarity with PEAKS is so far superior to any sunglass I've ever worn. The guys were amazed the first time they put them on. I was impressed that so many of the Palmer Cup competitors wore PEAKS from the moment they received them." European Head Coach Chris Van der Velde from the Netherlands and European Assistant Coach Peter Svallin from the Swedish Men's National Team were impressed with how many of the European competitors wore PEAKS immediately. Coach Svallin observed "These collegiate golfers think they're invincible... so I was surprised so many of the European Palmer Cup competitors chose to compete wearing PEAKS from the first day. There's no question that you see everything so much more clearly than with the natural eye. Myself? I am amazed at how clear everything is while wearing PEAKS."
