Speakers Bio

Tony Gwynn had a very successful major league career while playing all 20 years with the San Diego Padres. Considered by many to be the best and most consistent hitter of all time, Tony was an eight-time batting champion, received five Gold Glove Awards and was selected to the All Star Team 15 times. Tony ranks third on the list of players to reach the 3000 hits milestone in the fewest number of games.

To honor Tony for all of his accomplishments the Padres retired the number 19 jersey and the street that the Padres stadium is located was changed to Tony Gwynn Drive. Tony is extremely committed to community service and has established the Tony Gwynn Foundation to help fund numerous organizations that support children.

Tony continues to be part of baseball and coaches the San Diego Aztecs university team. As his batting stats indicate Tony understands the importance of the right grip. When Tony became aware of his team using ZT Edge™ he tried it and was so impressed by its performance that he was quoted as saying, “Imagine what I could have done with ZT Edge™”. Tony both supports and promotes ZT Edge™ for its performance and health attributes.
