Keita Nakajima is one of Japan’s rising stars, and he’s proving that at the ZOZO CHAMPIONSHIP.
Nakajima, who’s playing his first PGA TOUR event as a pro this week, is in fifth place at the tournament’s halfway mark. He’s just three shots behind co-leaders Rickie Fowler and Andrew Putnam after shooting 63 on Friday.
Nakajima was the world’s top-ranked amateur before turning pro. He won the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship and a Japan Tour title while still an amateur.
Nakajima uses TaylorMade equipment throughout the bag. He uses three Stealth Plus woods, the forged cavity-back P7MC irons for his long-irons and the muscle-back P7MBs for his short irons. He also uses four wedges, opting for a pitching wedge that mirrors his other wedges instead of his short irons, as well as a 60-degree version of the TaylorMade Hi Toe wedge.
