“I was going to continue to play the Exotics hybrid no matter what this season and then I started hitting 300 yard bombs with their fairway wood,” said Waldorf. “I’m excited to explore the full line of Exotics equipment since the first two clubs I have tried are in my bag.” I am a big fan of how this is a U.S. owned and operated company that has dedicated itself to the PGA Tour Champions. They are out here every week making sure we are taken care of with ultra-high-performance clubs and that is very much appreciated. I’ll be proud to wear their hat and carry their bag this year to help spread the word on Tour Edge Exotics.”

“Duffy is a grinder and a model of consistency out on the PGA Tour Champions,” said Tour Edge President David Glod. “This is a big name in golf and a big deal for Tour Edge to name as our 4th logo staff player. He was in play with us all year last year and absolutely loves the clubs. I’m excited to work with him on the Exotics CBX 119 down in Boca Raton as these clubs were designed for a golfer just like Duffy in mind. I see a perfect marriage brewing.”
Waldorf will make his season debut February 8th at the Oasis Championship in Boca Raton, Fl.

“We set up on the range at every event in 2018 and over 50 different professionals started playing Exotics,” said Glod. “The players have been very thankful for the service we are providing them and it has led to some great relationships and great feedback for me on club design.”
In all, over 50 players have put over 300 Exotics clubs into play since Exotics was launched to the tour in the last year. Eight out of the Top 25 players (32%) in the Charles Schwab Cup final standings and 16 out of the Top 50 players put Exotics into play in 2018.
