Clark Finds His 'One' Putter After 'Dating' Spree
5 Jun
Summary
- Clark humorously compared testing clubs to dating before finding his perfect set.
- He switched to a heavily lead-taped Ping putter, which improved his putting stats.
- His putting performance significantly improved, moving him up tour rankings.
Wyndham Clark has likened his search for the ideal golf clubs, particularly his putter, to a period of 'dating' various options earlier this season. He expressed satisfaction with his current bag, stating he loves every club, from his driver to his putter, feeling they are the best fit for his game. This extended process of finding the right equipment has now concluded.
Clark's putter journey led him to a heavily lead-taped Ping Scottsdale TEC Ally Blue Onset CB, adopted at the RBC Heritage. He found success with a 38-inch build, noting the putter's toe hang counteracted a tendency to miss left. The soft PEBAX insert also contributed to a preferred softer feel.
This equipment change has demonstrably improved Clark's putting performance on the PGA Tour. He moved from 155th in putting to 80th, now gaining strokes on the greens. This improvement was highlighted by his win at the Byron Nelson, where he led the field in Strokes Gained: Putting. His proficiency has also increased on longer putts and within five feet.
