(Reporting from Orlando Florida and the 2019 PGA Merchandise Show)
The 2019 Merchandise Show started with demo day on Tuesday, and a few LPGA professionals were on hand to promote various products. Seen were Lexi Thompson, and Karrie Webb.
Webb joined demo day on 48 hours before her departure to play in events in her native Australia, to speak on behalf of Nippon Shafts, a product she has used for years.
With shafts now as important as the rest of the club in many cases, picking the right shaft during a fitting process can add much to a new club or set of clubs.
Karrie Webb speaking with the media at the Nippon Shaft tent at demo day.
Webb is looking forward to a year where at 44 she is just shy of being old enough to play in the Senior LPGA Championship at French Lick come October. Age requirements for the U.S. Senior Women’s Open are 50 years old.
Webb is already a member of the World Golf Hall of Fame with her 41 wins worldwide.
She won the U.S. Women’s Open in 2000 at the Merit Club in Libertyville.
