Francesco Molinari WITB What's In The Bag - The Golf Equipment Molinari Used to Win the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill

You couldn't have written a better script for Francesco Molinari and Callaway Golf.  Before the Arnold Palmer Invitational kicked on Thursday, Molinari and Callaway inked a new equipment deal to make the Champion Golfer of the Year Callaway's newest stud in their line-up of big name players.  Molinari then proceeded to go out and win in his first official start as a Callaway staffer. 

 

The 36-year old Molinari roared back from five shots down on Sunday with the kind of flair that would have made Palmer proud.  Molinari recorded five birdies in the last six holes, capped off by a 44-foot bomb on the 18th for an 8-under, 64 on the day and 12-under overall for the tournament. 

Molinari had the complete game working at Bay Hill, averaging 295 yards off the tee, hitting 86-percent of the fairways and 78-percent of the greens, while picking up 4.2 strokes gained on the field for the week.  Here's what Molinari had in the bag for his two shot win over runner-up Matthew Fitzpatrick and second victory in the last eight months.
