Goodbye, table-top. Hello, claw.
Michelle Wie has abandoned her unorthodox table-top putting stance - where she bends low over her putts, perpendicular to the ground - and is preparing to use a new claw putting grip when she tees it up at the ISPS Handa Women’s Australian Open this week, according her coach, David Leadbetter.
“She looks really good with the new putting style,” Leadbetter said.
The new grip is similar to the claw-style grip Sergio Garcia uses.
“It may take a while for her to get comfortable with it, but she’s excited about it,” Leadbetter said.
