Sundog Eyewear congratulates Hunter Mahan on his fine play at the Presidents Cup

(Melbourne, Australia) - Sundog Eyewear congratulates Hunter Mahan on his outstanding play at the 2011 Presidents Cup at the Royal Melbourne Golf Club.

Helping the American team defeat the International Team 19-15, Mahan’s record at the 9th Cup was four wins and just one loss, including his decisive 5 and 3 victory over Australia’s Jason Day in the final day’s singles matches.

Mahan, wearing his distinctive Matte White H EVO Sundog Eyewear sunglasses, one of the most recognizable combinations in sport, improved his Presidents Cup record to 8-5-1 in three of the biennial competitions. Mahan, a three-time winner on the PGA Tour, has also represented the US in two Ryder Cups.

“Once again Hunter has come through with a Genuine Performance on one of golf’s biggest stages,” said Rod Hoogstraten, President of Sundog Distributing Inc. “We congratulate Hunter, and all of Sundog Eyewear’s Genuine Performers – Paula Creamer, Louis Oosthuizen, and Pablo Larrazabal – for their exceptional 2011 seasons.”

Mahan’s 2011 Sundog Eyewear H EVO Series continues the evolution of golf eyewear with cutting-edge style and uncompromising Mela-Lens performance and protection.

“I consider my Sundog Signature Series H EVO Mela-Lens sunglasses a very important part of my equipment,” said Mahan. “I count on my Sundog Eyewear to help me under all conditions.”

Like his Signature Series H sunglasses, the H EVO models feature Sundog Eyewear’s breakthrough Mela-Lens technology. “Mela” is short for Melanin, a naturally produced pigment that acts as a sunscreen protecting the skin from ultraviolet light. In partnership with BNL Sun Lenses, an Essilor company, Sundog Eyewear has created the Sundog Mela-Lens lines utilizing synthetic melanin to produce state-of-the-art melanin lens technology. Mela-Lens absorbs light seamlessly over a broad spectral range providing 98 per cent blue light filtration and 100 per cent UVA/B protection. Mela-Lens features BNL Sun Lenses Eternity Hard Coat for superior abrasion resistance.

The H EVO frame selection includes Root Beer Fade, Matte Black, Metallic Silver, and Shiny White to combine with four Mela-Lens colors.

H EVO and Hunter Mahan’s Signature H Series are just part of the 2011 Sundog Eyewear line that includes all new models in the Paula Creamer Collection, Mike Weir’s Weir Golf Signature Series, Mela-Lens Polarized, Mela-Lens Photochromic models, and the complete Core Golf line.

Sundog Eyewear salutes Hunter Mahan’s Genuine Performance at the Presidents Cup and extends best wishes for a great 2012 season.
