TITLEIST - A PERFECT 10

Steve Elkington's victory in the Doral Ryder Open on Sunday playing the Titleist Professional 100 ball took the world's number one ball manufacturer to a perfect 10, with 10 Tour wins on the US circuit in the 10 events played so far.

Elkington tamed the infamous Blue Monster course with a final round of 64 on Sunday roaring to victory in the Doral Open for the second time in three years.

The Elk reduced the lengthy Doral course, one of the toughest test on the US Tour, using the Titleist Titanium 976R driver.

Director of Marketing, John Peal commented:

"Titleist Titanium drivers are designed to deliver shots which fly with a harder more penetrating ball flight. With over 40 victories in 1998 and 5 victories so far this season on the PGA Tour, more than any other driver brand, we are confident that players using our clubs will continue to succeed on world tours this year."

Starting the final day 6 back, Elkington, who also puts in trust in Titleist forged irons, opened with two birdies followed by a tremendous run of six birdies from the 6th. His final tally of 10 birdies over the long and fearsome course littered with water hazards, was one of the most exciting this season, only surpassed by David Duval's record-breaking feat of 59 in the Bob Hope Classic in January. Duval also achieved his victory using all Titleist equipment, the Titanium 975D driver, DCI irons, Scotty Cameron putter and the Professional 90 ball.
