The award builds on a growing reputation for Mizuno’s JPX iron series – among both professionals and amateur players. The JPX900 & JPX919 Tour models having already won 4 majors in the hands of a non contracted player.

Outside of Japan, Mizuno has generally been pigeonholed as a better players iron manufacturer. So winning consumer tests with irons like the JPX919 Hot Metal are a nice balance to the wins on tour that golfers have come to expect from us.
