FINAL LEADERBOARD

EQUIPMENT NOTES:

  • Considered among the best putters on Tour throughout his career, Gay had struggled on the greens so far this season before recapturing the magic in Bermuda. The American ranked sixth in Putts per GIR for the week with his Scotty Cameron Newport 2 style putter. Gay using similar shaped putters from varied brands throughout his career.

  • One of the equipment free agents on the PGA Tour, with Gay’s only contract in place to play Titleist golf balls, the now five-time winner uses a mixed bag of clubs that work for him. Like many of the others who opt to go without a full bag sponsor, Gay uses TaylorMade woods and Titleist wedges, with his Srixon irons also featuring in the bags of other free agents at times in recent years.

  • Missing four straight cuts before his victory, Gay’s win is his first top-10 since the same event last year and continues the strong start of players using Titleist’s Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls to the new PGA Tour season, with five wins from eight events and three in a row.
