Callaway Staff Pro Eichelberger Continues Sizzling

Senior Pace With Second Victory in Four Weeks CARLSBAD, Calif., A (PROTEXT) - Winning is now becoming a habit for Callaway Golf (NYSE: ELY) Staff Professional Dave Eichelberger. Fresh from his victory at the United States Senior Open three weeks ago, Eichelberger birdied two of the last three holes at the Utah Showdown this past weekend and then parred the first hole of a sudden-death playoff at Park Meadows Country Club in Park City, Utah. The win was Eichelberger's fifth on the Senior PGA Tour and marked the first time in his professional career that he has had multiple victories in a season. Eichelberger used 11 Callaway(R) clubs -- including a Great Big Bertha(R) Hawk Eye(R) Titanium Driver, a Big Bertha(R) Steelhead(TM) 3-wood and Big Bertha X- 12(R) Irons -- to shoot 19-under-par 197 in the 54-hole event. "My overall golf game has never been better," said Eichelberger, whose earnings rose to a career single-season high of $800,359 with the $202,500 first-place check. "I am really driving the ball better than I ever have and my control of my irons has been outstanding." Callaway Golf continued its outstanding professional tour performance across the board during the week of July 29-Aug. 1. The winner of the Du Maurier Classic on the LPGA Tour used Callaway fairway woods, as did the third-place finisher -- who also used a Callaway driver -- in that major championship. The winner of the Dakota Dunes Open on the Nike Tour used a Callaway driver, Callaway fairway wood and Odyssey(R) putter. The runner- up in that event used a Great Big Bertha Hawk Eye Titanium Driver, Big Bertha X-12 Irons and an Odyssey Tri Force(TM) putter. For the year to date, on the combined PGA Tour, Senior PGA Tour, LPGA Tour, PGA European Tour and Nike Tour, Callaway Golf is #1 in driver usage, #1 in fairway wood usage, and #1 in irons. Odyssey Golf, a division of Callaway Golf, is #1 in putters on those five tours combined. For more information about Callaway Golf Company, please visit the Company's website at www.callawaygolf.com.
