Lee’s WITB: KPMG Women’s PGA Championship
Here’s a look at the Callaway equipment in Minjee’s bag as she looks to win her 3rd career major later today:
- Elyte Driver (10.5°) – Diamana WB 53R Shaft
- Elyte Fairway Wood (16.5°) – Ventus Red 6R Shaft
- Elyte Fairway Wood (21°) – Ventus Red 6R Shaft
- X-Forged Irons (5-PW) – Aerotech Steelfiber i80 Stiff Shafts
- Opus Wedges (52°, 56°, 60°) – Nippon 950 Regular Shafts
- Odyssey Ai-ONE Square 2 Square Broomstick #7 Putter
- A Chrome Tour X Golf Ball
Minjee plays a Chrome Tour X Golf Ball, part of the Chrome Family that continues to excel in professional golf and in the market. Our Chrome Tour X is engineered for the best players who want outstanding distance, workability, and spin so they can experience their best performance from tee-to-green. If she wins today, it would be the 4th major victory for our Chrome Tour Golf Ball lineup – Xander Schauffele earned 2 major wins in 2024 with a Chrome Tour, and Yuka Saso won the 2024 U.S. Women’s Open with a Chrome Tour X.
Her driver is the Elyte standard model featuring Callaway’s most advanced face to date, the new Ai 10x that’s designed to produce exceptionally fast ball speeds across the face. A new refined shape provides enhanced aerodynamics for elite speed throughout the entire golf swing. The improved shape is designed to maximize swing speed with improved forgiveness. And an all-new aerospace grade Thermoforged Carbon crown enables fast head speeds while optimizing high launch and low spin. She’s had a strong week off the tee in Frisco, averaging 262 yards per drive in the windy conditions.
One of the key additions to Minjee’s bag in 2025 is her Odyssey Ai-ONE Square 2 Square Broomstick #7 Putter, which has helped improve her performance on the greens, particularly from inside of 15 feet. Her gamer is engineered with a modern center shafted design that makes the putter Stroke Balanced to stay square throughout a golfer’s stroke. It’s ideally suited for players who are looking to minimize their face rotation when they putt. And it includes our Ai-ONE insert for more consistent ball speeds across the face. Lee leads the field in putting so far this week.
If she wins today, Minjee will join her brother and fellow Callaway staffer Min Woo Lee in the winner’s circle this year. Min Woo won the Texas Children’s Houston Open earlier this year with an Elyte Triple Diamond Driver, Odyssey Putter, and a Chrome Tour X Ball. In other news, Atthaya “Jeeno” Thitikul is in the final group today with an Elyte Triple Diamond Driver, Odyssey Putter, and Chrome Tour X Ball in the bag.
#1 Driver and #1 Putter At 2 Majors This Week
Callaway is the #1 Driver Brand at both major championships this week; the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship and the Kaulig Companies Championship on the Champions Tour. At the KPMG, 51 players in the field this week are using a Callaway Driver, and Elyte is the #1 model in the field by far, plus no other brand has more than 30 drivers in play. We’re the #1 Fairway Wood and #1 Irons Brand at the women’s major as well.
On the Champions Tour, we’re the #1 Driver Brand with 36 in play; no other brand has more than 18, and Elyte is the #1 model in the field. Our drivers also earned another big victory on Saturday as the winner of The Amateur Championship in Europe had an Elyte Triple Diamond in the bag. On the Korn Ferry Tour, Adrian Dumont de Chassart shot a 59 with Elyte Triple Diamond, an Odyssey Ai-ONE Putter, and a Chrome Tour Ball.
Odyssey continues to dominate the majors with count wins at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship and the Kaulig Companies Championship. At the KPMG, we have 51 Putters in play and on the Champions Tour we have 41 in play while no other brand has more than 8!
Odyssey has been the #1 Putter on every major Tour, and the #1 Putter at every men’s and women’s major so far in 2025. This success is led by the popularity for our Ai-ONE family of putters, our Square 2 Square models, and our legendary head shapes like #7 and Jailbird. We’ve also been the #1 Putter on Tour for over 25 years, as the world’s best players choose our putters more than any other competitors at golf’s biggest events.
