What does Amy Yang carry with her on the greens?

Talking about the tools of Yang, first, let’s start with her preferred driver. She relies on a Callaway Paradym Triple Diamond driver with a 10.5˚ loft. It features a graphite AD UB-6 S shaft, and the club is priced at approximately $757.94. The driver’s adjustable weight track in Paradym is a significant advantage, which compensates for its higher cost.

Meanwhile, regarding Amy Yang’s choice of fairway wood, she opts for a Ping G430 MAX 3-wood paired with a Mitsubishi Chemical Diamana GT 60 S shaft. This fairway wood is lofted at 15 degrees and is priced around $600, placing it in the higher price range. However, it is renowned for being one of the most forgiving fairway woods available in the market.

This is not all. Amy Yang also uses a PING G430 hybrid, which costs approximately $411.24. It is paired with a KBS Tour Prototype Hybrid 85 S shaft and has a loft of 19 degrees. Talking about the growing popularity of the hybrid, the president and CEO of PING, John K. Solheim said, “They’ve quietly become one of our most successful categories.” What are various other tools in her bag?

What irons, wedges, putters, and golf balls do Yang use?

Now, turning to her irons, Yang uses the Srixon ZX5 Mk II irons (5-PW) that are equipped with Nippon N.S. Pro 950GH Neo shafts, cost around $1028.52 for the whole set. These Japanese irons boast of offering forgiveness where it counts (in the mid and long irons) and control where you need it (short irons) while providing a premium feel.

The 35-year-old relies on Callaway JAWS Raw wedges with lofting angles of 50˚, 54˚, and 58˚, paired with Nippon N.S. Pro 950GH Neo shafts for wedge shots. Each club is priced at $149.49. For rolling the ball on the greens, she prefers the Odyssey Ai-One #7 Cruiser Putter, featuring a 3-degree loft and priced at $442.86, renowned for its appealing design. Finally, her choice of golf ball is the Titleist Pro V1x, priced at $63.27, known for its exceptional spin rates on approach shots and soft landings. Thankfully, Amy Yang’s skill level justifies the investment in such high-quality equipment.

Well, with the equipment that the South Korean golfer has been using, she has performed exceptionally well in the 2024 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. Will she be able to clinch her first major trophy?
