TaylorMade's R9 continues to be the No. 1-played driver on the PGA Tour, with 29 competitors, including winner Sean O'Hair, putting it in play at the Quail Hollow Championship. Since its debut in January at the Bob Hope, the R9 has been the No. 1 driver model at 17 Tour events, including its current streak of 13 in a row.
O'Hair, who also plays an R9 fairway wood, was scintillating from tee to green at Quail Hollow. He ranked seventh in driving distance (312.6 yards) and tied for third in greens in regulation (75 percent). What's even more amazing is that he captured his third PGA Tour title without making a single putt over 10 feet for the week.
