What Driver Every Golfer Is Using At The Masters

Rory McIlroy, Phil Mickelson, Bryson DeChambeau and Jordan Spieth all hit tee shots with a driver.

When it comes to the golf bag the driver is, arguably, the most important club and, despite most manufacturers releasing new models every year, sometimes it's best to stick with what you know and trust under pressure.

If you were to scour through the professional circuit, you would notice that players have different drivers in the bag that vary in terms of age and head shapes.

Certainly, at Augusta National, many brands are in play and, with tee shots playing a huge part in the outcome of the tournament, it's crucial that players have the driver dialled in for the tree-lined layout.

Just because manufacturers have released new models doesn't mean players will be putting them in play. One example is Rory McIlroy who, after testing the latest TaylorMade Qi35 driver, has opted to use the older Qi10 for The Masters.

Viktor Hovland, who just recently won the Valspar Championship, was still using the Ping G425 LST driver, which is two models older than the newest G440. However, on Tuesday of Masters week, he revealed that he had switched to the G440 LST for Augusta National.

To go a step further - Bernhard Langer, who will be making his final Masters appearance, still has the Ping G400 driver in the bag from 2018.

The driver is a personal item and, below, we have taken a look at what drivers all 95 competitors will likely be using.

Top Brands Used At The Masters

Throughout Masters week a total of 38 players have put Titleist in the bag, with one using the GT4, 17 using the GT3, eight using the GT2 and 12 using the older TSR and TSi models.

Behind Titleist, Ping is the next used brand, with a total of 27 using one. Once again, it's primarily the LST versions of the drivers that feature which are the lower spinning, more compact versions of Ping's driver ranges.

Callaway and TaylorMade are the third and fourth most used brands, with various models in the bag of players. Cobra, Srixon and PXG are used by a handful of players, while Bryson DeChambeau has the Krank Formula Fire LD in play.

In total, the most popular model of driver is the Titleist GT3, with 17 players putting them in the bag for The Masters.
