May 14, 2026 –<\/strong> Following a victory at the first major championship of the men\u2019s calendar and an 18 from 18 winning streak on the PGA Tour in 2026, Softspikes<\/strong> arrives at this week\u2019s PGA Championship<\/strong> with the numbers continuing to underline its dominance at the top of the professional game.<\/p>\n

The overwhelming majority of players teeing it up at this week\u2019s second major of the season will once again trust replaceable spikes over spikeless footwear, with 87% of the field competing in spiked golf shoes<\/strong>. Tour Flex Pro<\/strong> also continues to be the leading spike of choice, with 47% of the field<\/strong> wearing the model this week.<\/p>\n

That dominance in the field comes alongside a perfect winning record on the PGA Tour this season, with every tournament winner in 2026 wearing Softspikes technology<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Last month\u2019s Masters further highlighted the continued shift towards replaceable spikes at the elite end of the game, with the champion securing back-to-back major victories while wearing Softspikes.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWeek after week, we continue to see the best players in the world choosing replaceable spikes when performance matters most,\u201d<\/em> said Joe Henderson<\/strong>, President of Softspikes.<\/p>\n

\u201cMajor championships place huge demands on players physically and mentally, and traction plays a critical role in helping athletes perform with confidence in all conditions.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cTo see 87% of the field in spikes at this week\u2019s PGA Championship, alongside an unbeaten winning record on the PGA TOUR this season, reinforces what players already know \u2013 grip matters.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The PGA Tour\u2019s unbeaten 2026 run for Softspikes now stretches to 18 consecutive victories, underlining the continued dominance of replaceable spike technology at the highest level of professional golf.<\/p>\n

Tour Flex Pro<\/strong> remains one of the most played models on Tour, combining traction, comfort and responsiveness for players seeking maximum connection with the ground during the golf swing.<\/p>\n

Tour players routinely change spikes based on course conditions, but many amateur golfers overlook traction’s impact on consistency and distance. For optimal performance, golfers should replace spikes every 15 rounds.<\/p>\n
