TaylorMade-adidas Golf Tour Staff Professional Sergio Garcia Wins Wyndham Championship
Garcia Wears New adidas Golf crossflex Footwear and Plays Full Bag of TaylorMade Equipment Including R11S Driver and RocketBallz 3-Wood
CARLSBAD, Calif. (August 20, 2012) – Playing through unfavorable conditions including heavy rain, TaylorMade-adidas Tour Staff professional Sergio Garcia wrapped up the PGA Tour’s regular season with a convincing win at the Wyndham Championship. Garcia carded rounds of 67-63-66-66 to secure his eighth career win on the PGA Tour.
Regarded as one of the purest ball strikers in golf, Sergio drove the ball beautifully all week with his R11S driver. He also played his Tour Preferred MB irons and ATV wedges to perfection, his precision setting the table for three straight birdies on the closing nine.
Sergio wore adidas Golf’s new crossflex, an athletic-style golf shoe designed to deliver lightweight performance, spikeless traction and increased flexibility.
“When I first tested the new crossflex shoe I didn’t want to take them off,” said Garcia. “They are by far the most comfortable golf shoe I’ve ever worn; they feel more like a running shoe yet provide great traction on the course.”
Built on a lightweight running last, the innovative crossflex features a waterproof mesh upper and a spikeless geometric outsole, which proved to be vital at Sedgefield County Club’s rain-soaked terrain.
With the win, Sergio solidified his case to earn a spot on the 2012 European Ryder Cup team. Ranked 33rd in the FedExCup standings, Sergio now heads to Long Island for the start of the PGA Tour’s Playoffs at The Barclay’s.

Spotted: Nate Lashley’s Ping PLD “Wolverine” putter
Ping PLD putters have been a very common site on profesional tours. Pros seem to gravitate toward the PLD line’s custom options and precision milling. We have seen the PLD line expanded over the years, but we haven’t seen too many, if any, large mallets.
This week we spotted a PLD putter in Nate Lashley’s bag that has a similar look to the old Ping Wolverine head shape. This putter is a large mallet with the famous “claws” on the outside and oval center that housed the alignment aid.
Nick’s putter has the PLD logo on the back but also looks like it might have an insert installed on the face. It is hard to tell but at the address picture, it looks like the face is a lighter material than the rest of the putters. The putter is center-shafted and should be face-balanced with a high MOI for stability and forgiveness on mishits. The sole is completely milled and has no markings of name or technologies that might be present in the head. A single white site line is on the top of the putter for alignment.
Nick’s putter is finished off with a chrome steel shaft and a Super Stroke Zenergy Flatso 2.0 grip in black and white.

Not the best looking shoe but obviously very comfortable.
I’m looking forward to trying the new Adidas PureMotion design which has just come out.
