The new Sonartec Md Hybrid Transition Club was in the bag of the winner of the 133rd British Open Championship at Royal Troon Golf Club Sunday.
The champion used the versatile Md off the tee, off the fairway and to chip around the greens in his quest for the Claret Jug. The 17-degree Md was the only fairway wood in the winner's bag.
In the dramatic playoff with the # 2 player in the world, the winner used the Md on the 18th hole to seal the victory. ABC Sports analysts repeatedly reported on the "mystery" hybrid the winner kept pulling out of his bag. It was instantly tagged by the media as the "Most Valuable Club" of the British Open.
It was the 2nd time Sonartec has been in the bag of a British Open Champion in the their 4-year history. A Sonartec SS-03 14 degree 3-wood was used by the 2001 Open Champion.
The fairway wood specialist Sonartec was the # 3 most played fairway wood at the British Open with 18 fairway woods in play. Five players used the Md, including the 2nd round leader of the tournament.
Sonartec has had 75 players use their clubs on the PGA Tour in 2004 and is the # 3 fairway wood by more than 200 clubs over the next closest manufacturer. Thirty-five of those players have used the Md Transition Hybrid, easily making the Md the # 2 Hybrid on the PGA Tour. The Md and two other Sonartec fairway woods were also in the bag of the Nationwide Tour winner Sunday, giving Sonartec their 12th worldwide win of the 2004 season.
