In June of 2021, Clay qualified for the US Senior Open with a fantastic performance at the Diamond Oaks Country Club in Fort Worth, TX, while wearing his SQAIRZ SPEED™ – Gray/Black golf shoes, securing one of only 156 available slots after competing against almost 3,000 golfers. This is Clay’s first time playing in the US Senior Open, which will take place between Wednesday, July 7, 2021 through Sunday, July 11, 2021 at the Omaha Country Club, in Omaha Nebraska. The event will be televised by NBC Sports between July 8th and 11th on the GOLF Channel and Peacock.
After securing his place at the Open, Clay was asked to comment on securing his place at the upcoming event and stated, “I had a great time at qualifying and I feel good about being out there with the pros. I am going to be out there playing my best, so why can’t it be me this week? I owe this to good luck and having the right equipment. I only work with the best companies, and that’s why I represent PXG golf clubs and SQAIRZ golf shoes. I’m 52 years old now, and I notice myself losing a little bit of power, but SQAIRZ have really given me that power back. It’s normally tough to walk the course for days in a row, but the SQAIRZ shoes are the most comfortable golf shoes I’ve ever worn – I don’t have any fatigue and my feet don’t slide around going up and down the hills. The stability is amazing and even the STA-PUT shoe laces make a huge difference. I didn’t have to tie my shoes once on the course. I haven’t felt this alive or had this much club head speed in a long time and I have to attribute a lot of this to SQAIRZ. They are the best shoes out there, period.”
When asked about Clay Weems qualifying for the US Senior Open while wearing SQAIRZ, Robert Winskowicz, the founder and CEO of SQAIRZ said, “It has been an absolute pleasure getting to know Clay and play with him on the course and we are all extremely proud to have him on our team. Clay is a fantastic instructor, golfer, and person. Clay personifies the dream that all golfers have; to have a shot at taking on the best in the world and winning it all. We are all going to be glued to the TV rooting for Clay and we all wish him the very best at the US Senior Open in Omaha.”
