TaylorMade Golf – Brooke Henderson goes wire-to-wire with Stealth 2 Plus driver to win the LPGA Tournament of Champions
January 23, 2023 – Brooke Henderson tallied her 13th career LPGA Tour victory with a wire-to-wire win at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions in her first start with 14 TaylorMade clubs and TP5x golf ball in the bag.
After earning her place in the tournament via two wins in 2022 on the LPGA Tour with her TP5x golf ball, including a second major championship at the Amundi Evian Championship, Henderson started strong with rounds of 67, 66, 69 to take the 54-hole lead. Through those three rounds, Henderson hit 81 percent of fairways with an average driving distance of 261 yards with her Stealth 2 Plus 9.0° driver.
In the final round, the 25-year old held off a pack of chasers to win by four strokes carding a closing round 70 to finish 16-under par for the tournament. This expanded Henderson’s otherworldly run at this event to 16 straight rounds under par going 54-under in that span.
Henderson expanded her partnership with TaylorMade on Wednesday becoming the first athlete to go from a TaylorMade golf ball agreement to a full bag of TaylorMade clubs, while also sporting the TaylorMade staff bag and TaylorMade logos on her headwear.
“With this new driver it’s really nice to be aggressive with it, because it can take a lot of power if you have it. I feel like a lot of things have been working really well, especially the wedges. It feels really nice to be able to feel aggressive, and they’re holding really well, which is sort of a new thing for me. There has been lots of bonuses and lot of perks with the new switch,” said Brooke Henderson in a post round press conference.
“As a player, consistency with my driver and control with my irons are key. I love hitting driver because power is a big part of my game, and Stealth 2 Plus has helped me add distance, which is always great. With the irons and wedges, I could quickly feel how much control I had with each swing. I’m excited for a full season with TaylorMade equipment in the bag and to continue building on what we started with golf ball,” said Brooke Henderson in the moment of sign for TaylorMade.
