FINAL LEADERBOARD

EQUIPMENT NOTES:

  • Martin’s four eagles on the front nine equalled a world record, with three coming in a row thanks to a solid all-round game. Martin’s driver is a rare Triple Diamond model, which was specially designed with a more pleasing appearance for certain Tour players and a slightly different centre of gravity location than the other Mavrik Sub Zero driver sold at retail by Callaway.
  • The former Australian Amateur champion has a unique mixture of shafts featured throughout his bag. The Fujikura Speeder in Martin’s driver is an “older” model in the shaft world, while the same brand’s Ventus in his 3-wood is one of the latest flavours of the month on the world’s professional Tours. Interestingly, Martin goes from X flex shafts in his woods to 6.0 Project X iron shafts, then plays wedge shafts that are lighter in weight than those in his irons.

  • The 36-year-old was part of an immensely strong week for Titleist at Bonnie Doon, with all bar one player inside the top-20 using the company’s golf balls for the week.
