JAKARTA - Tiger Woods' backup putter from the sensational 2002 season has sold for $393,300, according to Golden Age Golf Auctions.

The putter is specially manufactured by Cameron for Woods and comes with a letter of authenticity.

Woods won five tournaments, including the Masters and US Open, in 2002.

Fifteen-time major tournament champion Woods practiced and experimented with the putter but did not use it in competition, according to auction house Golden Age Golf Auctions.

"There are just a few pieces of sports memorabilia that we believe will be collected over the centuries - Babe Ruth's baseball bat; Muhammad Ali's boxing gloves; Michael Jordan's basketball shoes," the auction house said. August.

"For golf, there is one item we will add to the list above - Tiger Woods' Scotty Cameron putter."

The putter that Woods used for most of the 15 major championships he won is still in the hands of the 45-year-old, and would fetch millions of dollars if it were to go up for auction, the auction house said.

A spare putter of a different design used by Woods sold for $155,000 more than a year ago.

Woods is currently still recovering from the leg injury he sustained in a car crash in February near Los Angeles.
