Callaway Golf – The golf bag of Minjee Lee to win the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship with Callaway and Odyssey

June 23, 2025 – Callaway Staff Professional Minjee Lee earned her 3rd career Major championship at the wind-swept KPMG Women’s PGA Championship in Frisco, Texas (US). Her winning bag included a Callaway Elyte Driver, Elyte Fairway Woods, X Forged Irons, Opus Wedges, a Callaway Chrome Tour X Golf Ball, and an Odyssey Ai-ONE Square 2 Square Broomstick #7 Putter.

Lee’s gamer driver is the Elyte standard model, featuring Callaway’s most advanced face to date, the new Ai 10x that’s designed to produce exceptionally fast ball speeds across the face. She delivered a strong performance off the tee at the Field Ranch East course, averaging over 262 yards per drive. Callaway also dominated as the #1 Driver Brand at the women’s Major with 51 total in play; no other brand had more than 30.

Minjee plays a Chrome Tour X Golf Ball, part of the Chrome Family that continues to excel in professional golf and in the market. Chrome Tour X is engineered for the best players who want outstanding distance, workability, and spin so they can experience their best performance from tee-to-green. This is already the 4th Major victory for the Chrome Tour Golf Ball lineup – Xander Schauffele earned 2 Major wins in 2024 with a Chrome Tour, and Yuka Saso won the 2024 U.S. Women’s Open with a Chrome Tour X.

One of the key additions to Minjee’s bag in 2025 is her Odyssey Ai-ONE Square 2 Square Broomstick #7 Putter, which she used to lead the field in putting this week. Zero torque is one of the hottest trends in putting and it’s featured in the Square 2 Square models. The modern center shafted design makes these putters Stroke Balanced to stay square throughout a golfer’s stroke. Odyssey was the #1 Putter Brand at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, and it’s continued to dominate as the #1 Putter on every Major worldwide Tour for over 25 years.

“We’re so proud of Minjee’s performance this week, and we want to congratulate her for capturing her 3rd Major championship victory,” said Topgolf Callaway Brands President & CEO, Chip Brewer. “She’s an outstanding player, a great representative for Callaway, and we’re so excited that’s reached yet another career milestone.”

Lee joined Callaway as a Staff Professional at the beginning of 2024, after being impressed in testing with the Chrome Tour X Golf Ball and the Company’s innovative golf club technologies.

Her brother, Min Woo Lee, is also on Callaway’s Staff and he earned his 1st career PGA TOUR win earlier this year at the Texas Children’s Houston Open with an Elyte Triple Diamond Driver, Odyssey Putter, and a Chrome Tour X Ball.

ECCO Golf – Stellar week for the ambassadors of the brand, carding two victories

August 27, 2021 – ECCO Golf has enjoyed a stellar week across the globe, claiming two tournament wins and a further four top-10 finishes.

In Japan, ECCO Golf Ambassador Sakura Koiwai continued her dominant year by winning the CAT Ladies Tournament at Daihakone CC, her fifth win of the 2021 season. Koiwai, wearing ECCO BIOM H4, carded a one-under-par 71 on the final day to finish two shots clear of second place. She now sits atop the money list and the points list on the Japan Ladies PGA Tour.

On Sunday, Thomas Bjørn stepped back into the winner’s circle, claiming his first Legends Tour title at the Irish Legends. Bjørn, sporting ECCO S-THREE, carded a sizzling six-under-par 65 on Sunday at Rosapenna Golf Resort to reach 15-under-par, before securing victory on the second playoff hole. Bjorn, commenting on his win, said: “As a sportsman, there’s no greater feeling than being in the mix on a Sunday afternoon. I recognised myself and I haven’t seen that person for quite a while, which is quite nice. It’s pretty special winning any golf tournament.”

Elsewhere, ECCO Golf Ambassador, Erik van Rooyen, continued his fine run of form with a T7th place finish at The Northern Trust, the first event in the PGA Tour FedExCup playoffs. Following his maiden PGA Tour victory at the Barracuda Championship earlier this month, which secured his place in the FedExCup playoffs, van Rooyen had another superb week at Liberty National Golf Club in New Jersey, finishing at 14-under-par.

At the AIG Women’s Open, meanwhile, two players wearing ECCO Golf shoes finished in the top-5, including major winner Minjee Lee. Fresh off a string of strong performances, including her maiden major title at the Evian Championship, Lee made a solid start to the week, and went into the final round at Carnoustie at four-under-par, but carded a brilliant 66 on Sunday to finish tied for fifth place at 10-under-par.

Finally, at the European Tour’s Czech Masters, Henrik Stenson came close to securing a 12th European Tour win as he was narrowly edged out to a T4th place finish. Following two bogey-free rounds to start his week, Stenson finished the week with rounds of 69 and 71, just falling short of a return to victory on tour.

Commenting on the impressive week, Jesper Thuen, responsible for sponsorship at ECCO Golf, said: “We are delighted with the strong performances by players wearing our shoes across the globe this week. Two wins is an awesome achievement, and for that to be backed up with another four top-10s is something we can be very proud of.

May 30, 2018 – Australian Minjee Lee celebrated her 22nd birthday in style with a dramatic victory at the LPGA Volvik Championship on Sunday in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Having taken a two-shot lead into the final round, challengers pushed Lee all the way to the end before a closing birdie on the 72nd hole lifted her to a one-shot victory.

Lee, who turned 22 on the final Sunday of the event, has shown terrific form all season recording five top-10 finishes on the LPGA Tour, including narrowly missing out in a playoff to fellow ECCO Golf ambassador, Lydia Ko a few weeks ago.

The win moved Lee up seven places in the Rolex World Rankings to number eight, as she entered the top-10 for the first time in her career.

“I’ve been playing pretty solid the whole year, and it’s just nice to have a win,” said Minjee Lee. The victory comes at a great time for Lee with the Women’s US Open beginning on Thursday next week.

“It’s going to be a totally different week, so I’ll just try my best and I know I’m hitting it pretty solid and putting it solid, so I think we’ll have a great week,” said Lee.

Jesper Thuen, responsible for sponsorship at ECCO Golf, added: “It was fantastic to see Minjee finally get her win on the LPGA Tour this season, she has been playing some incredible golf. 

“Minjee thoroughly deserves to be ranked inside the world’s top 10, it’s a testament to her continued excellent form. Looking ahead to the US Open next week I wish all of our ambassadors the best of luck.”

Lee competed wearing her women’s ECCO BIOM G 2, a design which features an athletic, ECCO HYDROMAX treated ECCO Racer Yak leather upper, as well as a technical insole system and anatomical last.

The shoe is also highlighted by exceptional support and comfort via ECCO BIOM NATURAL MOTION technology that mirrors the foot’s anatomical shape bringing the player closer to the ground, and a visible, carbon-look stability bar running heel to mid-foot.

The runner-up finish continues Lee’s impressive run of form, with five top-10s in eight starts on the LPGA Tour in 2018.

Speaking to the media following her win, Lydia Ko said: “When that putt dropped, I was like oh, my God. I actually thought my chip might go in the first time I played the 18th hole, but a lot of emotions.

“My whole team and my family, they’ve worked really hard for this moment, so I’m happy that a few of them are here and we can celebrate together.”

Jesper Thuen, responsible for sponsorship at ECCO GOLF, added: “It was fantastic to see Minjee and Lydia battle it out for the title.
