Morgan P.'s winning Putter

[daydreamer]

what is it?

maybe this was covered already, but does anyone know what type putter Morgan used to win the Nabisco Kraft event this past weekend?

ps, comment: too bad CBS didn't cover enough of her winning last round. I know Pettersen lost it. But watching Morgan play is more compelling, she's more emotional, engaging and makes for better TV than Se Ri or Pettersen can ever make.

thx moecat.

 

It looked liked a new Marxman putter by Odyssey, but I can't confirm it. Anyone know?

 

That was a big putt and she earned that major after Birdie Kim stole one away from her a few yrs ago with that bunker shot.

...according to the site, an Odyssey White Hot XG Marxman Mallet. She also keeps a blog on the Callaway site.

 

Finishing at 3-under 285 for the tournament, Pressel earned a celebratory plunge into the 18th green pond with an FT-3 Driver, X Fairway Woods, (11 and 7) X-Forged Irons, (5-9) an X Hot 3-Wood, the HX Tour Golf Ball and an Odyssey White Hot XG Marxman Mallet. She was joined in the traditional swim by her caddie, and also her grandmother, Evelyn Krickstein.

thx all. Great stuff guys!

 

I tried to find one at the retail stores here in So Cal yesterday, but nothing yet in the big box stores (Golfsmith or Roger Dunn), per the Golfsmith website it's released to consumers on April 11th.

 

Yeah, she'll most likely keep it for a good long while in the bag now that she's in elite company.

According to the golf channel, all of her clubs including her putter from this past weekend were either lost or stolen on the flight home. That must be a bummer to have the clubs from your first major lost. If they were stolen, I wonder if the idiot would be stupid enough to put them on ebay?

Where did you read that? I can't find it anywhere.

BTW, I think Pettersen was playing a Newport Detour.

It was the last thing they said on Golf Central last night. They showed the what's in the bag graphic and then said Callaway will be more than happy to replace her entire Callaway bag because it is MIA.

I heard the same thing

*ouch* that's a real loss for her. Imagine winning your first Major, being the youngest Major winner for women's golf history, and then, lose the original gear that won you the tourney! That's got to be heartbreaking for her.
