David Lingmerth's Ping Cadence TR Ketsch putter was the difference maker at the Memorial. Not only was Lingmerth third in strokes gained/putting for the week at 1.574, but he holed a pair of crucial putts in his playoff with Justin Rose -- a 10-footer on the 18th to keep things going and a five-footer on the 10th to clinch the win.
It's not surprising that Lingmerth is a Ping staffer. His uncle, Goran Lingmerth, is a Ping sales rep in the Miami/Ft Lauderdale area and he mentored David and helped get him into college at Arkansas. Goran's claim to fame is that he holds the NCAA field goal record of 8 in a game while kicking for Northern Arizona in 1986.
