Covington, Ga. - In only his fourth start on the Champions Tour, Fred Couples boomed his way to his third straight victory, while setting
a course-record—10-under 62—in his final round at the Cap Cana Championship. These
remarkable feats have golfers worldwide eager to see Couples tackle the links at
Augusta National in this year's Master's.
"Fred is red hot," said Dan Murphy, Bridgestone Golf - Vice President of Marketing,
"and he's super comfortable with his Bridgestone equipment as he continues to rack
up record-setting performances."
