In the absence of the mighty Tiger Woods at the USPGA Championship 2008, Phil Mickelson was firm favourite to lift the Wannamaker Trophy on Sunday (10th) evening, with three majors to his name and recent wins at the Northern Trust Open and Crowne Plaza Invitational.
Unfortunately, the American found himself in seventh place – seven shots behind winner Padraig Harrington.
Padraig Harrington is the first European to lift the trophy since Tommy Armour in 1930 and has entered the record books as the fourth golfer in history to win PGA and Open Championships in the same year.
Harrington’s main rival, Sergio Garcia finished on 2-under 68 to share second place with Ben Curtis – despite starting the final day with a birdie and eagle seeing the Spaniard tie with Padraig after 16 holes.
Bookies favourite Phil Mickelson finished in seventh place – finishing on 4-over 284, whilst third favourite Lee Westwood, who started the championship with high expectations, failed to make the cut after a disappointing first two rounds.
Harrington who started the championship with odds of 16/1 (second favourite) has been associated with Wilson since 1998, having won 61 major championships using Wilson irons; 12 of his 14 golf clubs are Wilson branded and include the following clubs: Wilson Dd6+ driver (8-deg), Wilson FWS 5-wood (18-degree), Wilson Dh6 Hybrid Rescue Wood (19-degree); Wilson Pi7 irons (4-PW) and Wilson Tw7 wedges (55- and 60-degree).

Golf’s MVP Red Heat $159.95 “Golf’s MVP Red Heat There’s one part of the golf game that’s practically impossible to teach: the feeling of the proper release. It simply is not an intuitive skill. And while it’s possible to tell people how to do it, and even show them how to do it, many pros and instructors wish they could teach the way the perfect swing should feel. Now they can! In the majority of good golf swings, the right elbow is tucked in close to the side of the body during the downswing, and stays there partially through impact. Also, the wrists stay hinged, which ties in the action of the right side with the hit. The combination of these two angles and the proper sequence of body motion give the player the best chance to produce lag in the downswing. Click Here to view the complete Golf’s MVP Instructional DVD. Golf’s MVP is the only training technology on the market that lets you know what this should FEEL like. When loaded at the top, the MVP gearbox locks the hands creating a passive right side that allows the above sequence to happen. This enables the golfer to return the club to its original plane and produce more lag and club speed, and ultimately more distance. Learn to keep your hands passive with the L-Drill. Strap on your MVP and get it in the proper position. Attach the feedback clip to the club. Then, as you take the club back and the MVP locks your wrists, be sure to form an "L" with the left arm. Once you have completed the backswing, swing down slowly and maintain the L created by your wrist and left arm. Practice this several times repeating these positions and you will soon be on your way to a better golf swing. Golf’s MVP Red Heat works for both Right Handed & Left Handed players. Includes Training DVD The Golf’s MVP Training Team gives you step-by-step instruction and drills to get the most out of your Golf’s MVP Red Heat training experience. This new DVD comes FREE with purchase. Quick Start Guide Handy written and illustrated version of our step-by-step instruction to keep in your bag. The guide will walk you through everything you need to know to get started with Golf’s MVP Red Heat. Training Clip Series Red Heat comes with 3 feedback clips that allow you to customize the MVP for your swing and progressively challenge yourself to improve lag and power. FREE with purchase. Proprietary Sleeve Technology NEW! The new Red Heat Edition has a sporty new moisture-wicking sleeve. The natural moisture-transporting feature of the fabric helps maintain a dry surface next to the skin for added comfort. Environmentally friendly and recyclable. W |
