Bridgestone launches Tiger Woods Edition Tour B XS balls to benefit the TGR Foundation
Tiger Woods has been playing the Bridgestone Tour B XS since the last year’s Hero World Challenge. Now, you can play a replica of the ball the 14-time major champion tees up in competition…and for a good cause, no less, as a portion of proceeds benefit the TGR Foundation.
Bridgestone’s Tiger Woods Edition ball features the “TIGER” logo Woods’ ball bears and distinctive packaging. The ball is identical to the one Woods plays on Tour, according to the company.
Angel Ilagan, President and CEO of Bridgestone Golf, says,
“Working with both Tiger and TGR Foundation has been a tremendous experience and we’re excited to build on the popularity of Bridgestone golf balls, while helping a great cause.”

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping
Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Which stock ball are they stamping his name on?
No way it’s the exact ball he plays.

that’s why it says replica. replicas are just a mock of the actual. duplicate would’ve meant the same ball.
