The official equipment counts from this week's Waste Management Phoenix Open are in - and the numbers are overwhelming.
Titleist is the clear top choice of more of the players in the field from tee-through-green ... from the GOLF BALL through nearly EVERY major GOLF CLUB category.
Of the 132 players competing at TPC Scottsdale this week, 71% (94 players) are trusting a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball for their success, nearly six times the nearest competitor with 11% (16 players).
Titleist is also the top choice in the driver (37), fairway metal (54), hybrid (19) and irons (37) categories. Vokey Design Wedges also topped the approach, sand and lob wedge category with 175 Vokey models in play.
