| An Odyssey 2-Ball Putter was used to win the Nationwide Virginia Beach Open on the weekend, marking the ninth international tour victory of the year for the best-selling putter in golf. These unique putters have dominated the professional tours over the past two years while boosting Odyssey Golf, a brand of Callaway Golf Company, to its highest sales and market-share numbers ever, and this week the distinctive Odyssey 2-Ball will take center stage again as Annika Sorenstam's putter of choice in her historic appearance in the PGA Tour's Bank of America Colonial tournament.
Sorenstam has done more than any other touring professional to raise the profile of the Odyssey 2-Ball putter, using it to win 17 tournaments, including three international events, since switching to it late in the 2001 LPGA season. And despite the introduction on tour of several competing putters utilizing similar designs, Odyssey 2-Ball Putters continue to gain ground around the world, with pros and amateurs alike.
In fact, the best-selling Odyssey 2-Ball Putters are used more than any other putter across the world's six major professional tours combined. Through May 18, a total of 1,367 Odyssey 2-Ball Putters have been put in play across the PGA, Champions, LPGA, Nationwide, PGA European and Japan Golf tours combined, more than double the number of Odyssey 2-Ball Putters in play at the same time last year. That total includes the Odyssey White Hot 2-Ball standard, Mid and Long, and Center Shafted models, as well as the new Odyssey DFX 2-Ball Putter, the model that was used to win the Nationwide Virginia Beach Open this past weekend.
Odyssey 2-Ball Putters have now been used to win 38 events across the world's six major professional tours combined since their introduction in late 2001. The Odyssey 2-Ball Putter family got off to a remarkably fast start when Paul Lawrie holed a 60-foot putt across the famed "Valley of Sin" in front of the 18th green at the Old Course at St. Andrews to win the Dunhill Links event and earn shot of the year honors on the PGA European Tour.
