Lydia Ko What’s In The Bag?
Despite only being in her mid-20’s, Lydia Ko seems to have been around for a long time now which is no surprise given how she shot to superstardom in her teens.

Moving to the irons she has a new set at the moment moving away from the PXG set she had in the bag for a while. During testing she narrowed her choice down to Mizuno, Srixon, and a Japanese brand called Proto Concept. The latter won when, despite the Proto irons being a few yards shorter than her PXG’s, dispersion and carry yardages were consistently tighter in the mid and short irons.
Her specific models are the cavity-back Proto Concept C07 Forged which is her six-iron, and then the C05 Forged from seven-iron down to…
