WHAT’S IN HIS BAG
Christo Lamprecht stands tall at 6ft 8in (the tallest golfer to compete in The Open), which can make club fitting a bit challenging. During The Open he said he went through three sets of clubs in an 18-month period between the ages of 14 and 15 because of multiple growth spurts, adding half an inch to his clubs each time.
Because of a rule that went into effect on 1 January 2022, his driver is limited to 46 inches in length. All his irons, except his 3-iron, are 1.5 inches longer than standard and he uses a 43-inch arm-lock putter. Lamprecht also travels with two lob-wedges, one with 6deg of bounce and the other with 10. He usually uses the 6-degree club on firm courses like Britain’s links but opted for the 10-degree option at Royal Liverpool.
