THE TEST

Jon

Rahm

wins the

Farmers

Insurance

Open at

Torrey Pines

using a Tour

Red Spider.

After challenging

TaylorMade’s designers to

add a splash of colour to

his favourite putter Jason

Day became

the first

player to put

a red putter

(TaylorMade

Spider Tour

Red) in play at

the RBC

Heritage.

TaylorMade install Day’s

favourite surlyn face insert

into the Tour Red for The

Players Championship. He

shoots 63 in the first

round, going onto be the

first wire-to-wire winner in

16 years, gaining 3.635

putts on the field for the

week.

Typically five players a

week put a TaylorMade

red putter in play on the

PGA Tour.

Other tour players start

asking TaylorMade tour

reps for that “red Jason

Day putter”.

The TaylorMade

Spider Tour Red goes

on a 12-week run as the

most used putter on

the PGA Tour.

Ross Fisher credits his

Red Spider putter for a T3

finish at the WGC in

Mexico; Dustin Johnson

uses one to win that event;

Sung Kang holes 300 feet

of putts with the red

mallet as he raced to the

36-hole lead at the Shell

Houston Open.

Sergio Garcia wins

his first Major at

The Masters, using

• you’ve guessed it


• a Spider Tour Red.

Rahm wins the Irish Open

by six shots using his

Spider Tour Red.

Rory McIlroy puts one in

the bag at the US Open;

meaning the top three

players in the World

Rankings are all using a

Spider Tour Red.

TaylorMade launch six

new TP Collection model

putters, all of which are...

green. Just kidding, red.

Odyssey launch three new

O-Works Red models.
