A mere 5 weeks after picking up a Yes! Abbie Putter at the BMW International in Munich, Swedish rookie Oskar Henningsson has won his maiden European Tour victory at the Moravia Silesia Open in the Czech Republic.
The 23 year-old started the final round 3 strokes adrift of the lead, but convincing birdies on the 1st and 4th put him T1st with Steve Webster.
"He tested a few of our others putters, the week before, in Malmo for SAS Masters" said Phil Kenyon who represents Yes Golf on the European Tour as well as working with many of the players as a specialist putting coach. "We are fortunate he stayed with the Abbie model he picked up at Munich the moth before. I think he will be pleased too, as not only did he play well in Malmo but he clearly took that form in the Czech Republic and Abbie served him well. Notching up a win during his rookie year as well is fantastic!"
Henningson's final round 67 (-13 for the tournament) earns him €333,330 and a place in the history books: he's only the 2nd rookie to win a Tour event in 2009.
The Abbie is a slant-hosel toe heavy blade putter, and - alongside other Yes! Blade putters - is one of the most popular on the Yes! range.
