Inside defending PGA champ Xander Schauffele's golf bag

Xander Schauffele was at the top of his game last year when he won two major championships, but this was especially the case at the 2024 PGA Championship, where he set the all-time major scoring record.

So it shouldn’t be a surprise that Schauffele hasn’t changed much in his bag as he gets set to defend his first major title.

Due to an early season injury, Schauffele has played just seven times so far this season and has recorded just one top 10, although that was a T8 at the Masters, and he finished T11 at last week’s Truist Championship.

After an early season switch to the Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond, Schauffele has reverted back to the Paradym Ai-Smoke he used last year.

Keep reading below for Schauffele’s full specs as he tries to defend his title at Quail Hollow.

The K Grind has a long-standing place in the Vokey lineup, originally crafted by Master Craftsman Bob Vokey with input from top players. Known as the ultimate bunker club, its wide flange and subtle camber create a forgiving, smooth surface, ideal for sand shots. The K* Grind represents an evolution of the original K, designed in response to feedback from today’s players who seek versatility on firmer courses. It’s based on the Low Bounce K, with modifications like heel-to-toe relief for open-face shots and pre-wear to reduce digging on square-face shots. This new design allows the club to sit closer to the ground when opened, improving greenside performance while retaining the reliable bunker play of the original K Grind. The K* Grind is available in 58° and 60° lofts (RH only) with a Raw finish.
