Wixom, MI – SuperStroke, the No. 1 Putter Grip in golf and the leader in innovative Tour-proven golf grip technology, congratulates 24-year-old California native Akshay Bhatia on the biggest win of his young career, a sudden-death playoff victory at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Bhatia overcame a five-stroke deficit on the tournament’s final nine, putting brilliantly down the stretch with a SuperStroke Zenergy Tour 1.0 Two-Piece putter grip in hand.
His rounds of 70-66-68-69 and 15-under-par finish catapulted him into a tie for the lead after 72 holes and his par on the first playoff hole was enough to secure this third career win. For the week, Bhatia led the field in Birdies (23), Strokes Gained: Total (13.687), Strokes Gained: Around the Green, Strokes Gained: Putting, Putts Per Green in Regulation, and Feet of Putts Made. Winning this Signature Event earned him the $4 million winner’s check and pushed him to the number two position in the FedEx Cup Standings.
“Congratulations to Akshay Bhatia on winning for the third time in his young career with a stellar closing stretch of birdies and an eagle and signature playoff victory at The Arnold Palmer Invitational,” said SuperStroke Vice President of Marketing Ryan Harris. “That was one of the finest putting displays we’ve seen on the PGA TOUR this season and we were thrilled to see Akshay in such total command of his game with his SuperStroke Zenergy Tour 1.0 Two-Piece putter grip in hand. He is in prime form heading into major championship season.”
