The Titleist and TaylorMade clubs that won Robert MacIntyre the Scottish Open

15/07/2024 16:17

Robert MacIntyre claimed an emotional and hard-fought home Open win at the Renaissance Club on Sunday.

The bag that powered him to the Scottish Open title was a mixture of Titleist and TaylorMade clubs.

Off the tee, MacIntyre still uses the TSR2 driver from Titleist although his fairway wood comes from the new GT3 series.

His Titleist GT3 3-wood is dialled in at 15 degrees of loft and is the only fairway wood in his bag.

Rather than opt for a 5-wood or 7-wood or a long iron, MacIntyre favours the TaylorMade Stealth 2 Rescue hybrid lofted at 19 degrees and fitted with a Graphite Design Tour AD DI 105 X shaft.

When it comes to irons, MacIntyre has a standard array of 4-9 irons and uses the Titleist 620 Cavity Back irons with True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts.

His wedges are a mixture of Titleist Vokey Design SM10, SM9 and another wedgeworks club at 60 degrees with a K-grind finish.

The Scot’s putter is the popular TaylorMade Spider Tour stick and his ball of choice is the Titleist Pro V1.

"It's unbelievable," MacIntyre said. "My reaction when that ball dropped on 18 said it all. I've almost lost my voice now. It's the one I wanted and the one I got."

It was an emotional day for MacIntyre, whose family have sacrificed much for his career.

"I’m from a working-class background," MacIntyre said.

"I’ve got two older sisters my parents foster. We’ve got a foster boy just now that’s been with us for six, seven years. I was given a great opportunity by my whole family.

"We used to have a horse for my sisters, and couldn’t afford to do both," he continued, "and my sisters gave up the horse and gave me a chance to go and travel some within Britain."
