Bettinardi Signs Rising LPGA Tour Star Yu Liu
Tinley Park, IL: Bettinardi Golf announced the signing of LPGA Tour rising star Yu Liu, to become their first ever LPGA player to join their Tour Staff. Liu will play her Studio Stock 28 putter with Tour Preferred F.I.T. Face Milling.
Yu Liu, who is currently inside the top 50 in the Rolex Rankings and the number 2 ranked player from China, joins China’s number one male player Haotong Li on the rapidly growing tour staff for Bettinardi Golf. Liu is quickly becoming a household name on the LPGA Tour after her impressive T2 finish at the Bank of Hope Founder Cup in March, and rapid rise in her 2nd year on the LPGA Tour. After switching to her Bettinardi putter at the Marathon Classic in July of 2018, she has seen great success including multiple top 10 finishes and missing only 2 cuts in 21 starts. Liu credits much of her new confidence in her putting to the feel of the F.I.T. Face on her SS28.
