AGE 31
LIVES Jupiter, Fla.
STORY Two-time SEC golfer of the year at Vanderbilt with one Solheim Cup appearance and two LPGA Tour wins, most recently the Palos Verdes Championship.
BACK ON COURSE I got that first win in 2018 and played in a Solheim Cup, but from that point on my career went in the wrong direction. To get to a place where I can win again is really cool. I’m now at peace with whatever happens with golf moving forward. —With Keely Levins

DRIVER
SPECS Titleist TSi3, 9.5° (B-1 setting), Mitsubishi Tensei AV Raw Blue 65S shaft.
The adjustable hosel is set to .75-degree flat. This gives me more consistent contact. It’s always hard for fitters to find the ideal spin rates without me losing launch, but this was the perfect launch and spin combo. When I mis-hit it, I still feel like I get a lot out of it.

FAIRWAY WOODS, HYBRID
SPECS Callaway Rogue ST LS (prototype), 15°; Titleist TSi2, 18°; Hybrid: Ping G425, 22°.
It’s hard to find a 3-wood that is easy off a tee and off the ground. I found the Rogue ST on the range, hit three shots with it, put it in the bag and won.

IRONS
SPECS Srixon ZX5 (5- through 7-iron), Srixon ZX7 (8-iron through PW), LA Golf A-Series Mid 85 R-flex shafts. All grips Golf Pride Tour Velvet.
I was testing a lot of shafts (my bag weighed 71 pounds when I flew to L.A.), but I like the stability, higher flight and spin of these. The two irons mix forgiveness and precision.

WEDGES
SPECS Ping Glide 4.0 (46° bent to 49°, 53°, 58°); Nippon NS Pro 950 R shafts.
The shapes of these really suit me. I’ve had similar versions of the Ping Glide wedges the past four years. I weaken the loft on the 46 to get my yardage gaps right. The shafts are steel, but they are still light, making for a better transition from my graphite iron shafts.

PUTTER
SPECS SIK Pro C-Series Matte Black (Plumber’s Neck), LA Golf TPZ One35 shaft, 33 inches.
Michelle Wie introduced me to LA Golf, including this putter shaft. Putting is such a tiny swing that I never thought clubface stability mattered. But I feel like I have a bit more awareness of where the putterface is through impact.

SCHOOL GIRL
The black and yellow dots on my Titleist Pro V1x are Vandy colors. Most LPGA Tour players prefer the Pro V1x over the Pro V1 because it spins more. It’s ideal for me, and I sure don’t swing 115 miles per hour.

PROTEIN POWER
I learned the hard way not to eat anything sugary on the course. I used to eat bananas—great for you, but with all that natural sugar, I’d crash a few holes after eating one. Now, its fats and protein: jerky, nuts and protein-shake mix.
COLORFUL BLING
I never use a ball marker that matches my clothes. I’m not superstitious, that just makes sense. I carry a lot of Blingo ball markers in a bunch of colors, so I know I’ll never match.
