Danielle Kang is an American pro golfer who plays on the LPGA Tour. Since turning pro in 2011, Kang has won on the LPGA Tour six times, including a major at the Women's PGA Championship.
Kang has quite a special relationship with her clubs, especially her putter. She tied her career-best round of 63 with her secret weapon - hero one-of-a-kind putter stamped “DK Special” built by the great Scotty Cameron.
The putter is an important one for her, as she said via Golf Digest:
“It was really cool. because I had an idea, then Mr. Scotty Cameron sketched it out, and then all of a sudden my thoughts became real. He molded them, and then we spent hours, and I think it took days for him to make these molds."

The duo built the putter together, shaping and refining it to fit Danielle Kang's playing style perfectly. That, coupled with her intense practice to get used to the putter, has made a magical combination, allowing her to maximise her performance.
"And then I was with him for seven hours straight, grinding them, making it, buffering, lie lofting. It was incredible for me to watch. And I absolutely love that putter," she added.
