Which one of you bought Tiger’s backup putter??

A twin replica of Tiger’s Scotty sold for a lump sum of $154,928, the largest price ever paid for a putter. The flatstick was Woods’ backup, replete with a cherry bomb insert, backsplash and name engraving for its former owner.

But perhaps the most remarkable portion of the sale is what it isn’t. This wasn’t the putter that won Tiger his first Masters in 1997 or his last in 2019, nor was it in the bag for any of his heroic major (or minor) triumphs over the past two and a half decades. No, it’s merely a carbon copy of that putter. A version that was only meant to exist in the grave scenario something happened to the original. In fact, this putter has the same (or less!) in-round experience than the first Scotty you’d find off the rack at your local golf retailer.

As for the real thing, you’d better start saving now in the event it ever does go on sale. A few years ago, a Golden Age appraiser estimated the value of Tiger’s real putter would be $3 million to $5 million. Not half-bad for a (very famous) hunk of metal.
