Damien McGrane Wins In Damp China

Irishman Damian McGrane won his first title on the European Tour by winning the Volvo China Open in Beijing by a massive nine strokes.

Having starting the week playing in smog (perhaps a sign of what's to come in the Olympics?!), he finished the week playing in some of the wettest conditions encountered in his career. While most players dropped shots and fell away on Sunday, McGrane kept his cool to card a one over par 73 (an excellent score as it turned out!)

In McGrane's bag was a real mixture of equipment:

Driver: Callaway FT-3
Fairway Woods: Callaway FTi Squareway & TaylorMade V-Steel
Hybrid: Ping Rapture
Irons: Callaway Big Bertha & X-18 mixed set
Wedges: Callaway X Forged
Putter: Rife 2 Bar
Ball: Titleist Pro V1x
Glove: Titleist Players Glove
Shoes: Footjoy
