Kristoffer Reitan tar sin första seger på PGA-touren på Quail Hollow

Kristoffer Reitan tog sin första PGA-titel på Quail Hollow efter att ha börjat använda en specialanpassad putter från Ping. Segern fungerade också som en tidig bekräftelse för företagets nya Scottsdale TEC-putterdesign. Reitan tillskrev utrustningsbytet förbättringen på greenerna.

Reitan besökte Pings PLD-labb i februari under WM Phoenix Open. Tester visade att hans ansiktsbalanserade putter inte passade hans slag, vilket ledde till att han bytte till en modell med ”toe hang” och en plumber’s neck-hosel.
