Steve Stricker Wins 2019 U.S. Senior Open Championship with Record-Setting Performance

Going into Sunday's final round of the 40th U.S. Senior Open Championship at Notre Dame's Warren Course, anyone other than Steve Stricker must have felt like one of those early season Fighting Irish football opponents.  Yes, they were going to get a nice experience playing in the shadow of the Golden Dome, but their chances of winning were slim. 

 

Obliterating the 36-hole (126) and 54-hole (192) championship scoring records and matching the 18-hole mark with a first-round 62 on Thursday, Stricker finished off his historic week with a championship-tying, six-stroke margin of victory over good friend Jerry Kelly and defending champion David Toms. 

Cobra KING F9 ONE Length Irons Review: Hit Me Baby ONE More Time

When Cobra Golf signed Bryson DeChambeau three years ago to its Tour Staff, their first generation of one length irons was a solid effort.  The F7 ONE accounted for almost 50-percent of Cobra's iron sales, but I think even Cobra would admit there was still room for improvement.  Tweaks were made and the next generation of one length, the F8 ONE, was better.  Still, subtle issues that generally plague one length irons remained. 

 

With a few years of development and empirical testing under their belts, and experimenting with all the components of one length iron design, this year Cobra absolutely nailed it with one length. The KING F9 ONE length irons are not only their finest one length irons so far, but also irons that actually unlock one length potential with consistent gapping, easy distance, and exceptional accuracy.
