Creamer putts with love in Singapore

Love is in the air, and on the greens in Singapore.

Soon-to-be-married Paula Creamer dropped a snaking 75-foot eagle putt in a playoff against Azahara Munoz at the HSBC Women’s Champions on Sunday, ending her winless streak that has lasted since the 2010 U.S. Women’s Open.

“I could stand there all day long and putt that and not get it within 6 or 7 feet, but it just happens sometimes,” said Creamer, who threw her hands up and ran across the green in exhilaration after making the putt.

Creamer, who has gamed Odyssey or Ping putters in recent years, used a custom TaylorMade Ghost Daytona in Singapore. She requested a simple design, so TaylorMade went with a gray finish for the base color, the first non-white TaylorMade putter made for any tour player in the last four years.

The Pink Panther’s putter is anything but simple, however. It has a machined high-polish milling detail on the back to give it some elegance and some pink aesthetics to match the Pink Panther’s signature style.

“I put the heart on her putter because she just got engaged a few weeks prior and I know how happy she is now,” said Scott Gardner, TaylorMade’s Global Tour Manager for putters.

Creamer’s putter also features a Carbon Fiber insert, which she specifically requested, because she “loved the accurate roll out on speed and feel it provides.” It is equipped with a Ghost Black steel shaft that measures 34 inches and a head that weighs 360 grams.

It had been a long-time coming for Creamer to game a TaylorMade putter, but was well worth the wait. Maybe Creamer and her new putter aren’t ready for marriage, but the relationship is off to a nice start.

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.
