CARLSBAD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 2, 2007--Callaway Golf Staff Professional Morgan Pressel used Fusion Driver Technology, the newest Callaway Golf woods, irons and golf ball science and a new Odyssey Putter to become the youngest major champion in LPGA history on Sunday at the Kraft Nabisco Championship in Rancho Mirage, California.

With a 3-under-par 69 in Sunday's final round, the 18-year-old Pressel finished the tournament at 3-under 285 at Mission Hills Country Club. She played the last 24 holes without recording a bogey and her final-round 69 was the lowest of the day. A birdie on the par-5 18th proved to be the difference in her one-stroke win.

Pressel used the Fusion FT-3 Driver, the X Hot 3-wood, X Fairway Woods (11 and 7), X-Forged Irons (5-9), the HX Tour Golf Ball and an Odyssey White Hot XG Marxman Mallet Putter.

Pressel is the first American to win the Kraft Nabisco Championship since 1999. After her victory, she took the traditional winner's celebratory plunge into the pond next to the 18th green. She was joined in the swim by her caddie and her grandmother, Evelyn Krickstein.

Pressel, an honors student who graduated from high school just 10 months ago, has been poised for a win since she qualified for the 2001 U.S. Women's Open as a 12-year-old and competed at age 13.
