Maja Stark's WITB: the Ping staffer with a TaylorMade putter

Stark's contract covers the clubs. It does not cover the putter, the lob wedge or the ball — all three come from somewhere else. Every club, club by club.

Maja Stark plays Ping through the bag: a G440 K driver at 9°, a G430 Max fairway at 15°, a G430 hybrid at 22°, a two-model iron set and s159 wedges at 50° and 54°. Then it stops. The lob wedge is a Titleist Vokey WedgeWorks at 58°, the putter is a TaylorMade Spider Tour V, and the ball is a Titleist Pro V1.

Stark won the 2025 U.S. Women's Open at Erin Hills by two shots, becoming the third Swedish woman to take the title after Annika Sörenstam and Liselotte Neumann. Her 2026 included a T8 at the U.S. Women's Open and a T10 at Evian, and Bernardus was her third Solheim Cup — she chipped in for eagle on the par-4 8th in Saturday foursomes alongside Linn Grant as Europe went on to win 15–13.

The story of the bag

Three clubs sit outside the Ping script, and they are the three places where players are most often left free to choose: putter, lob wedge and ball. The lob wedge is the telling one — she plays Ping s159s at 50° and 54° and then goes to a Vokey WedgeWorks 04L at 58°, a grind with almost no bounce, which is a fitting decision rather than a branding one.

The G440 K is the other surprise. It is the most forgiving and most draw-biased head Ping makes, marketed at golfers fighting a slice — not the club you would expect under a U.S. Women's Open champion. Lauren Coughlin plays the same head.

The iron set is split across two models: a single i240 4-iron, then Blueprint S from the 5-iron down. Blueprint S is a small, low-offset head, and the i240 above it does the job a hybrid does in most bags.
