There was quite an alignment of the planets this last weekend.

Ron Streck’s victory on the Champions Tour at the Commerce Bank Championship was the 50th victory by a tour player using the Taylormade R7 Quad Driver

Ok. So someone had to win number 50. What makes it interesting is that Streck holds the honor of be being the first tour player to win a tournament using metal woods. That came at the 1981 Houston Open. His clubs? TaylorMade.

Streck’s also was one of the first two players to use metal woods, when he played with TaylorMades at the 1979 MONY Tournament of Champions.

And, with his victory, Streck became the first player to post wins on the Nationwide, PGA and Champions Tours.

Things that make you go hmmmm.

Thanks to TaylorMade’s Jason Woodmansee for the heads up on this one!
