Cusimano Wins Senior Division With YES! Too
DENVER, Sept. 25, 2009 -Jean Bartholomew carded a career-low 62 in the final round of the LPGA National Championship on the Rivers Course at Kingsmill Resort and Spa in Williamsburg, Va., Sept 14-16, 2009.
Bartholomew, a teaching professional at The Creek Club in Locust Valley, N.Y., used the YES! Emma Long putter on her way to a 7-under-par 206 to win by six shots. In the Senior Division, Dede Cusimano, a Class A teaching professional from River Valley Ranch Golf Club in Carbondale, Colo., won by four shots with a YES! Donna putter.
“This is my second tournament win using the Donna putter,” said Cusimano. “The Donna putter gave me complete confidence on the greens all week at Kingsmill. I love the look and feel of the putter and it rolls the ball great, the best that I have ever used.”
The C-Groove Emma Long putter is a center-shafted mallet putter, which features a unique triangle alignment design. The face-balanced putter is made of 304 stainless steel and has a head weight of 355 grams. The putter comes in a loft of 2.5 degrees and lie of 72 degrees standard. The putter has a double bend shaft. The Emma is available in right hand only in standard, belly 40-45 inches and long 45-50 inches. Emma belly and long putters retail for $230.
Donna is a hybrid putter composed of two different materials. The face is made of aviation-grade aluminum and the body is made of 304 stainless steel with a head weight of 355 grams. The combination of a light face and heavy back generates a high MOI. The design of the putter is a combination of a mallet and cavity-back blade design. The heel toe balance makes it a very forgiving putter. The full offset shaft features a double bend and the cavity of the putter head has a single alignment line. The putter is available in right and left hand for a suggested retail of $300
