𝗘𝗤𝟭-𝗡𝗫 from Wishon Golf – In Stock & Available Now

EQ1-NX is the new single and same length design concept from Wishon Golf, consisting of single length irons alongside the most unique and versatile fairway woods and hybrids ever created.

No other wood or hybrid can be built to such a wide range of lengths, all the way from single length to conventional length to any custom length in between,” says Tom Wishon. 

“With the EQ1-NX Fairways it is now possible to fit golfers with a 41-42″ #3 wood, as opposed to the normal fairway lengths of 43-43.5″ for the #3 wood, 42.42.5″ for the #4 wood and the #5 and 7 woods one inch down each from there – which are too long for the majority of golfers and prevents them from being as consistent with hitting woods off fairway lies. The EQ1-NX changes that.”

“As the EQ1-NX Hybrids can be made to an 8 iron length or 7 iron length,  they can be built to match with any set of the Sterling Irons.”


 

Eric Johnson wins at Northern Trust

‘American Dustin Johnson is determined to hold on to the world number one spot for as long as possible after going back on top of the rankings with an 11-shot victory at the Northern Trust.

The 36-year-old, tied second at the US PGA in August, made six birdies and an eagle on his way to a 63 at TPC Boston.

Johnson, who last held top spot in May 2019, is the fifth men’s player to be ranked number one this year.

“I’d like to stay there for a little while,” Johnson said.

“Obviously it’s been jumping around a bunch here the last few months, but the last time I was number one, I think I stayed there for quite some time, and that’s another goal of mine… to see how long I can stay at number one.”

Johnson was 30 under for the week as his closing 63 followed rounds of 67, 60 and 64.

Harris English was second with fellow American Daniel Berger third.

England’s Justin Rose and Tyrrell Hatton finished on 11 under with Ian Poulter two shots further behind and Tommy Fleetwood finishing on eight under.

Tiger Woods, winner of 15 majors, bounced back from his two-over 73 on Saturday with a five-under 66 for six under overall, while Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy shot a 69 to finish two under.

Johnson did not quite reach the heights of his Friday 60, but his unblemished final round featured an eagle on the par-five second before he reeled off another four birdies on the front nine to move further away from English.

He picked up another shot on the 12th and then, after an hour-long weather delay, rounded off his inevitable victory with a birdie at the last.’
