Megan Khang registered her first-ever LPGA Tour victory after winning the CPKC Women's Open on the last Sunday. Despite entering the final round with a three-stroke lead, her win wasn't a comfortable one as she had to face Ko Jin-young in a playoff match.

The American golfer needed some top-class equipment to win at the Shaughnessy Golf Course. So, without further delay, let's have a closer look at what was in the Khang's bag:

  • Driver - PXG 0311 GEN6 with 9˚ loft which is fitted with Mitsubishi Chemical Diamana PD 5th Generation shaft
  • 3-Wood - PXG 0341 X Proto with 15˚ loft with Mitsubishi Chemical Diamana TB shaft
  • Hybrids - TaylorMade GAPR Hi with 19˚ & 22˚ lofts (3 & 4) with Graphite Design Tour AD UT Hybrid shafts
  • Irons - (5-iron to pitching wedge) PXG 0211 ST with Aerotech SteelFiber FC shafts
  • Wedges - PXG 0311 Sugar Daddy Milled (52˚-10˚, 56˚-10˚ & 60˚), with Aerotech SteelFiber FC shafts
  • Putter - PXG Brandon Battle Ready
  • Ball - Titleist Pro V1

Megan Khang started her CPKC Women's Open campaign with a decent 1 under 71 in the opening round, including four birdies and three bogeys. In the second round, she shot a staggering bogey-less 6 under 66 and sunk five birdies.

Entering the weekend at the Shaughnessy Golf Course, the 25-year-old golfer had 4 under 68 third round and shot six birdies and two bogeys. She started her final round with a three-stroke lead but had an awful 2 over 74 that included just three birdies and five bogeys. This led to Jin Young Ko finishing tied first on the leaderboard.

After the playoff was enforced, Megan Khang controlled her nerves to get an edge over Jin Young to win her first-ever LPGA title.
