Donald doesn't play an entire bag of Mizuno clubs, but he does use the company’s irons and wedges, and those clubs are the backbone of his steady short game. In fact, he provided feedback throughout the development of new Mizuno MP-64 irons, to the point that Mizuno describes those clubs as being designed hand-in-hand with him.
Donald even visited the the plant in Hiroshima, Japan, where the clubs are forged, last November, and spent a little time with the man who grinds his clubs. While he was in Japan last fall, he won the Dunlop Phoenix, one of the biggest tournaments on the Japan Tour, and used those MP-64 irons and Mizuno MP-58 Irons for sale in that victory.
Donald signed on with Mizuno back in 2003, and has earned 13 professional wins with that gear. He also played those Mizuno clubs during his red-hot 2011 and 2012 seasons, in which he held the world No. 1 position for a total of 56 weeks and topped the money lists on both the PGA Tour and European Tour in 2011.
"We've refined my Mizuno equipment in the last couple of seasons and I'm really happy with what I have in the bag right now, so it gives me great pleasure to extend this relationship," Donald said. "Mizuno is the most precise, incredible clubmaker out there, and I'm honored to represent this quality brand."
For what it’s worth, Luke Donald loves this particular model. In fact, he started playing them almost as soon as he could. He hardly ever changes irons (his previous irons were discount Mizuno MP-63 Irons), but he switched within a week of testing Mizuno MP-64 irons. That’s how good they are.
The compact heads, minimal offset and sole design of Mizuno MP-64 irons make shot-shaping much easier and more controlled. They have the understated good looks, shot-making ability, tight dispersion, trajectory control, and super-soft, consistent feel that skilled players demand. The only real knock on them is that they’re fairly unforgiving, so you need to be an excellent ball-striker to play discount golf clubs well.
Donald's renewal never seemed to be seriously in doubt, but there was considerable speculation that Lewis might sign elsewhere. She began playing Mizuno gear in college, and last year led the LPGA Tour with four victories as she rose to No. 3 in the women's world rankings. She notched 16 top-10 finishes, more than any player on the 2012 LPGA Tour, and led the tour in birdies, eagles and rounds in the 60s.
"Since my freshman year at Arkansas, Mizuno has been my equipment manufacturer of choice," said Lewis. "Mizuno has helped me reach many of my goals thus far, and I'm looking forward to building on last year's momentum for another successful season."
