A week after trying Wilson prototype Smooth driver at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, Padraig Harrington returned to his old Wilson Staff Dd6+ driver and returned to form, winning his third major championship with the club. Harrington also took out his 3-iron in favor of a 19-degree Wilson Staff hybrid at Oakland Hills.
