When it comes to gear trends on tour, certain setups stick around for a reason. One that continues to show up in the bags of top players? A slightly softer flex shaft in the wedges.
Callaway’s latest wedge introduction, the Opus SP, is designed to flight the ball lower to maximise control – a desirable trait for increasing scoring opportunities.
Scheffler topped the Open field in strokes gained/approach, gaining 9.065 strokes. He was equally impressive on the greens, ranking second in strokes gained/putting for the week at 8.516.
While the Pro V1x remains the ball of choice this week, DeChambeau revealed in his post-round press conference at Portrush that he’s working behind the scenes on something revolutionary that could be ready in the not-too-distant future.
Better players seeking a blade-esque profile were left out when Callaway released its latest Apex Ai line-up. The introduction of Ai150 ticks all the boxes for golfers on the lower end of the handicap spectrum.
