Prior to becoming one of the greatest players in the world on the PGA Tour, Matt Fitzpatrick was a consistent victor on the DP World Tour. At the 2025 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, 2022 U.S. Open champion Matt Fitzpatrick is creating a stir. With rounds of 68-68, he is only two strokes behind leader Jhonattan Vegas and tied for second place at six-under-par.
With a noteworthy T5 result at THE PLAYERS Championship, Fitzpatrick’s subsequent performances have been a mix of highs and lows, and he is currently ranked 40th. His recovery from this major is evidence of his strength and well-considered equipment selections. So, what’s fueling Fitzpatrick’s stunning form at Quail Hollow? A closer look inside his 2025 golf bag tells the story.
Matt Fitzpatrick’s 2025 arsenal: Drivers, fairway woods, and irons
Fitzpatrick’s equipment selections combine innovation and tradition. His preferred driver is the Titleist TSi3, which retails for about $549.99 and is set at 9 degrees with a Mitsubishi Tensei AV Raw Orange 65 TX shaft, which is renowned for its control and adjustability.
He has a Cobra Darkspeed X Prototype 3-wood in the fairway wood section, which is $329.99 and is commended for its feel and performance. He also utilizes a Ping G410 7-wood with a Mitsubishi Tensei CK 80 TX shaft, which costs about $249.00 and offers versatility and forgiveness.
Fitzpatrick has been using the same set of irons since 2015, which is the Ping S55 (5-iron through pitching wedge). Even though they are older, these irons give him the accuracy he wants. He uses a Ping i210 4-iron, which combines forgiveness and control. While his long game tools are precision-driven, it’s Fitzpatrick’s short game setup that truly elevates his championship-level performance.
Mastering the short game: Wedges, putter, and more
Fitzpatrick’s choice of Titleist Vokey Design SM9 wedges in 52°, 56°, and 60° lofts, each costing about $159, supports his short game. These wedges, which come with True Temper Dynamic Gold S300 shafts, are well known for their adaptability and spin control. His putter, the Bettinardi BB1 Flow Tour Dept., is a custom model that costs about $450 and has been crucial to his performance. Fitzpatrick attributes the improvement in alignment that this putter brought to his game.
He chooses the Titleist Pro V1x golf balls, which cost $50 a dozen and are renowned for their consistency and grip. To have a strong grip while playing, his clubs are fitted with Golf Pride Tour Velvet grips, which cost approximately $11 each. Fitzpatrick sports Skechers footwear, which costs about $120 and combines comfort and stability, is used on the course.
Accompanied by his caddie, Dan Parratt, Fitzpatrick’s strategic approach and equipment choices are proving effective at Quail Hollow. As the final round approaches, all eyes are on Fitzpatrick to see if his meticulous preparation will culminate in another major victory.
