The wave of momentum continue to swell for TS drivers on the PGA Tour. This week at THE PLAYERS Championship, more players are trusting their success to a Titleist driver than any competitor brand with 38 players in the elite field of 144 relying on a Titleist model. Of those 38 Titleist drivers in play at TPC Sawgrass, 33 are TS models (TS2 - 7 | TS3 - 26). In fact, the Titleist TS3 is the most played individual driver model at THE PLAYERS with 26 - that is 5 more than the nearest competitor's top model.
Since the start of the new calendar year, Titleist has been the most popular golf driver on tour among golfers at nearly every event, including: Look at these PGA events where the Titleist TS2 & TS3 drivers are making a name for themselves as the best golf driver on the PGA Tour:
