PHOENIX: Continuing its industry-leading commitment to growing the women’s game and bringing lightweight, score-lowering technology engineered and custom-built exclusively for women, PING introduced the G Le4 family today.
The complete line of clubs is available for custom fittings and pre-order at authorized PING golf shops around the world beginning today.
“Our commitment to women’s golf started in the 1970s with my grandparents, Karsten and Louise Solheim, and continues today with the Solheim Cup and other game-growing initiatives,” said PING Executive Vice President Stacey Pauwels, who oversees the development of PING products made exclusively for women. “The G Le4 family offers a full set of performance-engineered, custom-built clubs that deliver added distance, unmatched forgiveness and a confidence-inspiring look. With the rapid expansion of the women’s game, including unprecedented popularity with a new generation of golfers, we look forward to helping them lower their scores and have more fun on the course.”
New WebFit Ladies App
In developing the G Le4 family, PING’s engineers made proper set gapping a top priority to help ensure women get the best results from their set. To make that process easier, PING’s fitting science group developed the WebFit Ladies app, an easy-to-use and educational fitting tool that makes club and set make-up recommendations based on a series of questions about your game and preferences.
“With multiple fairway woods, hybrids and irons optimized to the target swing speed, we’re confident when custom-fit to the correct set configuration, women will see tremendous benefits from every club in their bag,” Pauwels said. “The WebFit Ladies app is a great starting point for the fitting process before visiting an authorized PING fitting specialist to determine your ideal set make-up and specifications. The app takes only a few minutes and helps educate golfers on the importance of custom fitting.”
Optimized for Swing Speeds of 80 mph or Less
The G Le4 driver is PING’s longest and most forgiving women’s driver to date, due in large part to the lightweight Carbonfly Wrap crown. The crown, a first in a PING women’s driver, reallocates weight to position the CG lower and deeper, helping deliver faster ball speeds and higher launch with tighter dispersion for women with driver swing speeds of 80 mph or less. A fixed, 22g back weight is positioned heel side to contribute to a 15% higher MOI compared to the previous generation and gives golfers the fairway-finding forgiveness they expect from a PING driver. The G Le4 driver’s forged T9S+ face features a reshaped VFT, adding consistent ball speeds across the face for more distance.
Crown turbulators and a Vortec cavity provide aerodynamic efficiencies in the 460cc titanium head. The lightweight, Trajectory Tuning 2.0 hosel allows the 11.5⁰ loft to be adjusted plus or minus 1.5⁰ and up to 3⁰ flatter to dial in the player’s ideal ball flight.
Higher-Lofted Fairway Woods
The G Le4 fairway woods are designed with the Carbonfly Wrap crown to take advantage of weight savings for more effective use elsewhere in the club, including positioning the CG closer to the force line for higher-launching, longer results. New lofts in the 5 (23⁰), 7 (28⁰) and 9 (33⁰) woods improve playability and gapping.
The stainless-steel G Le4 3- and 5-woods combine with a maraging-steel Face Wrap to optimize flexing, making each loft a reliable and consistent choice from anywhere on the course.
The face profile is designed with Spinsistency, a variable-roll-radius innovation that better accommodates mishits, especially those low on the face that perform better due to the more consistent spin results and fast ball speeds.
Lightweight, Easy-to-Swing Irons
Continuing the success of previous generations of PING’s women’s line, the G Le4 is designed as an iron/hybrid combo solution, allowing golfers to create the ideal set make-up with optimal gapping to help ensure success with every swing.
In the stainless-steel G Le4 irons, forgiveness is achieved through a thin face and high-density tip and toe weights that position mass low and to the perimeter. The iron’s lighter overall weight is optimized for consistency and ease of delivering the club to the ball. More ball speed results from a lower CG position and custom-engineered lofts, producing measurable distance gains throughout the set. The tip and toe weights also help achieve the optimal swing weight.
Available in 6 through 9 iron with three wedge options (PW, UW, SW), the G Le4 irons and wedges also benefit from the multi-material PurFlex cavity badge, contributing to more consistent face flexing along with a soft, pleasing feel and sound.
In the sand wedge (56°) a slim hosel, wide sole and traditional head shape combine with fully machined grooves to improve bunker play. For added control, the pitching and U wedges feature fully machined grooves.
New 8-Hybrid Improves Gapping
Like the fairway woods, the G Le4 hybrids rely on the distance-delivering properties of a maraging-steel face, flexing to provide higher-launching, longer-carrying results. Its dual-roll face profile is optimized to the target swing speed, providing consistent spin. The four loft options, including the addition of an 8H, are optimized for improved distance gaps throughout the entire set.
At address, golfers will notice a shorter hosel and deeper front-to-back shape to inspire confidence while delivering the distance and high launch that brings more greens within reach.
A Putter To Fit Every Stroke
Inspired by PING’s long-standing reputation as a leader in putter design and performance, three distinct, high-MOI G Le4 models are offered in a variety of shapes, materials and alignment cues to fit every golfer’s eye and stroke type.
All three G Le4 putter models are engineered with a one-piece PEBAX elastomer insert that delivers a softer yet responsive feel with the distance control to sink more putts and build confidence on the greens. The PING PP58 Tour M Lilac grip has a Tour-proven shape and is made of a softer compound, offering exceptional feel and comfort.
Anser 2D
The slightly deeper, perimeter-weighted blade design of the G Le4 Anser 2D putter has similar weight, size and forgiveness of a mid-mallet putter. A single contrasting alignment line and clean heel-toe ballasts make aiming easier to inspire a confident stroke. It is engineered for golfers who prefer a blade-style design with a Slight Arc stroke type. It’s cast from 17-4 stainless steel with pearl chrome plating on the face and top rail and has Galactic Lilac accent on the flange and sole.
Louise
The G Le4 Louise putter, a mid-mallet design named in honor of PING co-founder Louise Solheim, borrows its weight and shaping properties from the DS72 but differs with a flared hosel and parallel-tip shaft. It best fits golfers who have a Strong Arc stroke. The multi-material design features a 17-4 stainless-steel body with pearl chrome plating and a forged 6061-T6 aluminum cover in anodized Galactic Lilac.
Oslo
The G Le4 Oslo putter is a high-MOI mallet with a low center of gravity for accuracy, helped by a ball-width back cavity and long alignment line that simplify aiming to inspire confidence and sink more putts. The multi-material mallet best matches golfers with a straight stroke. It has a forged 6061-T6 aluminum body in anodized Galactic Lilac, and a 304 stainless steel sole plate with pearl chrome plating.
Lighter Shafts and Grips Lower Overall Weight
PING’s proprietary ALTA LE Lite and Ultra Lite premium graphite shafts are standard throughout the G Le4 metal woods and irons to bring down the overall club weight while helping generate more clubhead speed and higher launch. The Golf Pride Soft Tack Lilac grip provides a softer, more comfortable feel and is available in four sizes: Aqua (stock) -1/64″, Red -1/32″, Blue -1/16, White – Std.
Out-of-this-World Color Scheme
A sophisticated color combination of Galactic Lilac and Milky Way Midnight (with gold accents on the woods and irons) gives the G Le4 its own identity, creating a premium and high-performance appeal for women serious about having fun on the course.
