AUGUSTA, Ga. – Si Woo Kim won’t have to use his 3-wood to putt at the Masters on Saturday.

Kim damaged his Odyssey putter on the 15th hole Friday when he slammed it into the ground following a missed putt and then completed his round on some of the game’s most treacherous greens putting with a 3-wood. But he had plenty of options for Round 3.

“Just frustration,” Kim said of his moment of anger.

Just three shots off the Masters lead on Friday, Si Woo Kim broke his putter in frustration and putted with 3-wood for the final three holes.

Kim was able to have his putter re-shafted onsite before Saturday’s round and Odyssey also shipped him an identical backup (a Toulon Madison with 20-gram weight plate) overnight, according to an official with Odyssey.

Kim, who began the day tied for sixth at 4 under par, opted to use the model that had been sent overnight for the third round.
