Titleist ball keep rolling with scotty's victory
Scott had his driver set to the A-1 default standard setting on the Titleist 910 series, providing him with a heavier link head shaft for greater control over his shots. The laser-like Scott, using the ever-popular Titleist 710 MB irons, also link ranked in the top-10 for greens in regulation with 70.8%. From his new right-hand man Steve Williams, whose head could simply not get any bigger, to blistering long drives and a trusted broom linkhandle putter, everything about Scott’s emphatic four-shot victory in Akron was huge.
The giant 7,400-yard brute proved no test for the Australian as he continually bombed his Titleist 910-D3 off the tee to an linkaverage of 319.6 yards for the week – ranking him fourth in driving distance. He might have taken a bit of slack for using the 48-inch broom in recent months, but Scott silenced his link critics by pouring in the putts on Sunday’s back nine as he raced away from the chasing pack. Scott ranked fourth in putts per round with an impressive 26.5, suggesting he’s finally found the form on dancefloor that could lead to his first major party at this week’s US PGA Championship.
