Usa: golfers can win Tifosi Optics sunglasses

In what is believed to be the first ever national promotion rewarding anyone who hits a hole-in-one, starting Aug. 1, any golfer in America who hits an ace will be entitled to a free pair of Tifosi Optics golf sunglasses. The glasses will help them deflect the attention that comes with scoring an ace, golf's most glaring achievement.

'A hole-in-one is the ultimate accomplishment for a golfer. While a round of beers in the clubhouse and a framed scorecard is a great reward, we want to take it a step further', says Tifosi Ceo and Founder Joe Earley, whose company provides eyewear to some of the world's premier athletes, including the Minardi F1 Racing Team and some of America's top cyclists. 'Tifosi glasses are made to help golfers see better from tee to green'.

The promotion will run through Nov. 30, 2005. Any golfer in the United States who hits a hole-in-one in this time period can get a free pair of glasses by providing a copy of their scorecard - signed by the pro at the course where the ace was hit - to Tifosi. They can do this by printing the hole-in-one redemption form off www.tifosioptics.com and faxing that form along with a signed scorecard to the Tifosi Optics headquarters. The pro signing the card will get a pair of glasses as well. Winners will get their choice from among five models.

Tifosi Optics provides a wide selection of high-quality frame and lens options, including interchangeable lens models that come with three different lens sets. For golfers, Tifosi offers a unique GT (Golf/Tennis) Lens. Based on research by Pacific University, the GT lens is designed to enhance 'object illumination'. The lens enhances the user's ability to pick up a ball in flight by incorporating a unique balance of target and background brightness. The spectral filter of this tint is designed for 'green grass' conditions, allowing the golfer to focus more closely on the ball when preparing for shots.
