PGA TOUR Rookie Captures Breakthrough Win in Charlotte Wearing the SQAIRZ ProS2™

WINDHAM, N.H., May 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- SQAIRZ, the performance footwear company redefining balance, stability, and ground connection in golf, proudly congratulates PGA TOUR rookie Kristoffer Reitan on capturing his first PGA TOUR victory at the Truist Championship in Charlotte, North Carolina.

The 28-year-old Norwegian shot a final-round 2-under 69 to finish at 15-under par, securing a two-shot victory over Rickie Fowler and Nicolai Højgaard in just his 15th PGA TOUR start. The victory marks a major milestone in Reitan's remarkable journey from promising amateur, to DP World Tour winner, to now PGA TOUR champion.

Reitan entered Sunday's final round one shot behind the lead before delivering a composed and clutch performance down the stretch, including a pivotal birdie on the par-5 15th hole before navigating Quail Hollow's demanding "Green Mile" closing stretch in even par to secure the win.

"Kristoffer Reitan's first PGA TOUR victory is an incredibly proud moment for everyone at SQAIRZ," said Robert Winskowicz, CEO and Founder of SQAIRZ. "Kris' journey to this milestone has been defined by perseverance, resilience, and an unwavering belief in himself through both the highs and challenges that come with competing at the highest level of professional golf. As we look at the next generation of PGA TOUR talent, it is clear that Kris Reitan is one of the game's rising stars.

Our footwear is engineered to help athletes improve balance, stability, and the confidence to perform during the moments that matter most. Kris' breakthrough victory this week is a tremendous reflection of that mindset, and we are honored to play a small part in such a significant moment in his career."

"Winning my first PGA TOUR tournament is a moment I'll never forget, and I'm incredibly grateful for everyone who supported me throughout this journey," said Kristoffer Reitan. "Bob and the entire SQAIRZ team have been amazing to work with, and for a week like this to happen, everything has to come together. The SQAIRZ ProS2 gave me great confidence throughout the week."
