Is Chanettee Wannasaen the next big thing in golf, or just another flash in the pan?

The 2004-born, Thai golfer, Chanettee Wannasaen is an LPGA Tour professional who has been battling pro golfers since 2021 when she turned pro. Even as an amateur, she has made notable achievements. She knew very well how to swing her clubs and emerged victorious in the 2019 Singha Thailand Amateur Match Play Championship.

After turning professional, she quickly became recognized as she went on to win six tournaments in Thailand in 2022. Moreover, the 20-year-old got her first LPGA Tour victory in the 2023 Portland Classic. With this, she might intrigue many golf enthusiasts about what she carries in her bag during the tournaments.

Meanwhile, shedding light on the one-time LPGA Tour winner’s choice of fairway wood, she opts for Callaway Paradym, paired with Mitsubishi Chemical Tensei Orange shafts. The fairways’ lightweight design enables Callaway to redistribute weight, significantly enhancing forgiveness, speed, and distance in these woods.

Have an interesting take?

This is not all. The Thai Pro also carries a Callaway Apex UW, which is also connected to a Mitsubishi Chemical Tensei Orange shaft. Irons are very important as they have the ability to make or break the game and Wannasaen carries two of those: Fourteen TC-7 Forged and Fourteen TB-7 Forged. With this, what else does the 20-year-old’s arsenal contain?

The one-time LPGA Tour winner relies on Callaway JAWS Raw to make wedge shots. A particular that these wedges possess is that they are designed in a way that they can fight the rusting process over time, maintaining the spin and control of the club. When it comes to rolling the ball down the greens, she turns to the Odyssey Toulon Design Memphis.

Last but not least, the golf ball that completes her arsenal is the Chrome Soft which is again from Callaway. The Chrome Soft balls have a smooth cover that provides a perfect amalgamation of spin and control. With the equipment that the 20-year-old golfer has been employing on the greens, she claimed an LPGA trophy. Will she be able to claim more? Only time will tell.
