Amino Vital® to Issue 500 Golf Towels to Commemorate 2009 Presidents Cup Tournament in San Francisco
FORT LEE, N.J.-(Business Wire)-September 15, 2009 - Ajinomoto U.S.A., Inc., the maker of Amino Vital®, a sports nutrition drink used by more than 75 percent of the golfers on the PGA Tour, announced today that it will issue 500 golf towels to commemorate the historic 2009 Presidents Cup Tournament scheduled for October 6 through 11 at Harding Park Golf Course in San Francisco.
Golf towels emblazoned with Amino Vital’s blue logo have taken on a cult status among golfers, sometimes fetching more than $50 on eBay. The majority of PGA golfers carry an Amino Vital® towel on their bag displaying their usage of the product, a practice that became widespread after champion golfer Stewart Cink began using Amino Vital® and raved about how the product helped him stay focused and energized and ultimately aided his performance. More than 180 Tour pros currently use Amino Vital®, including the past three Masters Champions, Zach Johnson, Trevor Immelman, and Angel Cabrera. And an Amino Vital® towel was prominently displayed on Y.E. Yang’s bag while he hoisted it overhead during his recent upset win over Tiger Woods on the 18th hole at the PGA Championship.
“We are extremely proud that the PGA asked us to create the commemorative Presidents Cup towels as it underscores the commitment PGA golfers have to our product and their appreciation for how it improves their performance,” said Chris Noss, a PGA tour trainer and a paid spokesman for Amino Vital®. “Given that only 500 towels will be in circulation, we expect they will ultimately acquire considerable historical and monetary value.”
In celebration of the issuance of the commemorative towels, Amino Vital® has launched a sweepstakes where the various prizes include 19 Presidents Cup commemorative towels, VIP passes, autographed memorabilia , among other items.
