TaylorMade No. 1 in Drivers, Fairway Woods and Hybrids
CARLSBAD, Calif. (February 25, 2008) – TaylorMade-adidas Golf Tour Staff professional Paula Creamer notched the seventh professional victory of her young career with a record-setting win at the Fields Open in Hawaii, aided by accurate driving with her TaylorMade® r7® SuperQuad™ driver and birdie putts using her TaylorMade Rossa® Suzuka putter.
Paula Creamer"I really have my SuperQuad dialed in right now and I might be driving the ball better than ever. I’m hitting a lot of fairways, which puts me in great position for a high percentage of greens in regulation and birdie opportunities," said Creamer. "I’m confident in my ball-striking, putting and mental game and I’m going to keep this momentum going."
Trailing the leader by two strokes entering the final round, Creamer birdied four out of her last five holes, including consecutive birdies on the final three holes, to post her second 66 of the tournament (66-68-66) and win by a stroke. Her 16-under-par 200 set a new Fields Open tournament record.
Using her TaylorMade r7 SuperQuad driver, Creamer ranked third in driving accuracy, nailing 85.7% of the fairways. She was also seventh in the field by hitting 77.8% of greens in regulation.*
It was her fifth career LPGA Tour victory and second in her last four events, after winning The Mitchell Company LPGA Tournament of Champions last November.
TaylorMade ranked number one in drivers, fairway woods and hybrids at the Fields Open.**
