Imagine the thrill of breaking a long drought and stepping back into the winner circle after 7 years. That’s exactly what Alex Norin achieved at the Bet Fred British Masters hosted by Sir Nick Faldo. But here’s where it gets fascinating. Norin didn’t just win once. He joined an elite group of golfers including the legendary Sevi Ballister who have claimed the British Masters title twice. This victory is especially impressive considering Norin’s recent comeback from a serious hamstring injury that kept him away from competitive golf for 7 months. Returning just this May, he was only making his third appearance on the DP World Tour since last year’s Alfred Dunnhill Lynx Championship. And this is the part most casual fans might overlook. During this dramatic return to form, Norin didn’t stick with the same gear. He switched up his equipment, integrating the innovative Callaway Opus SP wedges at the Genesis Scottish Open before the British Masters. He also introduced a brand new custombuilt Callaway prototype fairway wood to his bag. These strategic updates clearly paid off, but it was Norin’s outstanding performance on the greens that truly set him apart from the field at the Belelfrey Hotel Resort. leading all players in strokes gained putting with a remarkable plus 2.07. He wielded the Odyssey O Works 1W putter with masterful precision. Let’s break down the complete set of clubs that helped Alex Noran secure his triumph at this prestigious event.
