Ian Poulter was supposed to play in the Singapore Open this week, but someone stole his Cobra driver. However they left all his other Cobra golf clubs. Cobra wouldn’t be able to get him a replacement driver until the second day of the tournament, so he has decided to withdraw from the tournament. He considered playing with a different driver, but with the world golf rankings being so sensitive, he decided that he shouldn’t risk playing without every advantage.
Poulter is known for his wild outfits, which is a habit that he inherited from his mother. He has come out with his own line of clothing, and I have to admit that I’m hoping it doesn’t sell very well. The world is crazy enough with most people dressing normally.
Poulter was one of Europe’s most valuable players in this year’s Ryder Cup. He won four points out of his five matches. However, he accused Anthony Kim of bumping into him on purpose to try to upset him. There were many accusations from the European players, which led to people accusing them of being poor losers.
Here are the golf clubs Ian Poulter used at the Ryder Cup:
Driver: Cobra Speed Pro S (8.5°)
Fairway woods: Cobra Speed Pro (15°, 18°)
Irons: Cobra Pro MB (3-PW)
Wedges: Titleist Vokey Design Spin Milled (54°, 60°)
Putter: Odyssey Tri Force 3
Even though it’s still fairly early in the morning here on Mountain Standard Time, the first round of the Singapore Open is in the books. Lam Chih Bing has the lead with a 67 on the par 71 course. However there was a rain delay, and only about half of the field was able to finish their round. Most of the big names are playing in the Singapore Open, including Phil Mickelson, Padraig Harrington, Adam Scott, Ernie Els and others.
