Scottie Scheffler's clubs: Inside his PGA Championship-winning setup
Scottie Scheffler has earned his third major title, running away with the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow by five shots.
Scheffler’s bag is largely identical to the setup he used to win his first title of the year two weeks ago at the CJ Cup Bryon Nelson, except for one key swap.
This week, Scheffler was one the whopping 61 golfers who opted to add a high-lofted fairway wood — in his case, a 7-wood which he refers to as his 5-wood — to help hit higher shots into Quail Hollow’s par-5s and long par-3 6th.
“This week may be more of a 5-wood week just because, like you said, the golf course is going to play really long, the rough is thick, and the run-up areas after this kind of rain are going to be really soft, and the greens are still going to be really firm because they’re new,” he said Tuesday. “You have to be able to land the ball up on the green. You can’t really run it up around this golf course. That’s one aspect that you’ve got to think about.”
Scheffler first put a 7-wood in play at Torrey Pines for the Genesis Invitational, but brought it back this week to help him get out of the thick wet rough.
In testing, the 7-wood launched 1.5 degrees higher than Scheffler’s 3-iron which he uses most weeks and had 1500 RPMs more spin. TaylorMade Senior Tour Manager Adrian Rietveld, who was busy this week with a lot of 7- and 9-wood builds, told GOLF the high-lofted fairway woods can be so valuable because they serve dual purposes by increasing land angle and helping players get out of the rough.
Rietveld bent Scheffler’s 7-wood a degree upright compared to how he played it at Torrey Pines.
The other major change for Scheffler was that this was his second week since switching back a Vokey .06 Low Bounce K-Grind lob wedge. Scheffler had played the Low Bounce K in early 2022, when he got his first four PGA Tour wins and first Masters title, before gaming the narrower .04T Grind in his 60. The World No. 1 re-inserted the Low Bounce K before the Byron Nelson and is now 2-for-2 with the new lobber.

While Scheffler’s ball striking seemed uncharacterically leaky for him this week (he was still 14th in strokes gained: approach), his scrambling was sharp as ever, and he was fifth in the field in strokes gained: around-the-green (4.832).
At the top of the bag, Scheffler still plays the TaylorMade Qi10 (DOT) head he used most of last year, similar to Rory McIlroy. McIlroy became the center of attention this week for reportedly switching to his backup driver head, although this is a fairly common occurance in professional golf. In speaking to Golfweek Sunday, Xander Schauffele revealed that Scheffler “switched to his backup too.”
Backup or not, asside from a few pulls on the front nine Sunday, Scheffler’s driver was a weapon, finishing fifth in the field in strokes gained: off-the-tee (4.835).

Wrapped in a clean and confident package, the Qi10 driver has been strategically engineered to help players optimize distance and enhance forgiveness.
THE QUEST FOR INERTIA
TaylorMade’s goal with the Qi10 family is to make each driver as forgiving as possible, using advanced multi-material constructions to increase inertia. Qi10 is engineered for a balanced blend of distance and forgiveness.
COMPLETE PERFORMANCE
The Qi10 Driver features a lower CG projection and higher MOI than its predecessor, delivering balanced performance without any tradeoffs.
NEW INFINITY CARBON CROWN
An Infinity Carbon Crown covers 97% of the total crown area, creating a strategic advantage for mass redistribution and enhanced forgiveness.

TOUR PROVEN PERFORMANCE
The model most popular with both Tour players and amateurs, the Qi10 Fairway is the ideal blend of distance and forgiveness, while the precision CG location delivers a combo of high launch and low spin.
NEW INFINITY CARBON CROWN
An Infinity Crown provides a clean, uninterrupted view at address while also optimizing performance. Engineers relied on this new design to reshape the club, shifting more weight lower in the clubhead to maintain high inertia with an enlarged face profile to inspire confidence and generate ball speed.
Scheffler has used the TaylorMade P7TW irons for all 15 of his PGA Tour wins.TaylorMade
Irons: Srixon ZU85 (4), TaylorMade P7TW (5-PW), Nippon N.S. Pro Modus 3 Hybrid Prototype 10 X (3), True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 (4-PW)(Length: +.25″, Lie: 1 degree upright) Loft Progression: 23/26/30/34/38/42/46

MILLED GRIND SOLE DEBUT
Milled Grind eliminates variances in sole geometry from head to head and ensures precision in every iron set, while the CNC machined sole geometry and a precise leading edge promote consistent turf interaction.
TIGER’S FINGERPRINT
Each iron has been meticulously shaped to meet Tiger’s discerning eye—longer blade length, thinner topline, progressive face height, and more.
For every shot, every lie, every course, there’s a grind fit for your swing. Finding the right grind to match your swing and playing conditions will give you the best turf interaction, contact and shot performance. Master Craftsman Bob Vokey has spent decades crafting, developing and improving his tour proven grinds to fit players of all levels.
Anyone can manufacture a wedge, but it takes a master to turn a piece of high-performance technology into an instrument of creative control. Bob’s six tour-proven grinds are designed to offer maximum creativity, versatility and consistency, all meticulously developed through years of working with the best players in the world.
PROGRESSIVE CENTER OF GRAVITY
SM9 features a progressive center of gravity (CG) throughout the lofts, which optimizes ball flight, accuracy and forgiveness. Using tapered top lines and varied hosel lengths, the Vokey R&D team has raised the height of the CG in the higher lofts, which promotes a lower, more controlled flight.
The CG is also forward of the face, resulting in increased MOI, exceptional feel and a club face that simply wants to square up at impact.
SPIN MILLED GROOVES
SM9’s patented Spin Milled grooves are meticulously engineered through a new cutting process to maximize spin and durability. The process starts by cutting the face perfectly flat with a high-speed saw. Then every groove is individually cut based on loft and finish; low lofts (46°-54°) are designed with narrower, deeper grooves, while higher lofts (56°-62°) have wider, shallower grooves.
Micro-grooves are individually cut in between grooves, which maximize spin on partial shots. A proprietary heat treatment is applied to the impact area which doubles the durability of the groove without impacting feel, making it the most durable groove in golf. The process is only complete when every Vokey wedge is 100% inspected for utmost quality and performance.
