An Inside Look at Patty Tavatanakit's Approach to Approach Shots

4 min
Added on January 09, 2025
We joined Titleist Brand Ambassador Patty Tavatanakit inside the ropes as she shared her thoughts for playing three different approach shots. Patty's iron play and wedges were a key to her major victory at the 2021 Chevron Championship and her strategies can help you hit it closer when you get the scoring clubs in your hands.
