Tiger Woods confirms 3 gear changes for the Open Championship

As Tiger Woods prepares for the Open Championship at Royal St. George’s, he has unveiled three significant changes to his equipment setup.

The most notable update is the addition of a new driver to Woods’ bag. He will be using a TaylorMade Stealth Plus driver with a 10.5-degree loft. Woods has been testing the Stealth Plus for several weeks and is confident that it will give him the added distance and accuracy he needs to compete on the challenging links course.

He will also be using a new putter, switching from a Scotty Cameron Newport 2 to a TaylorMade Spider GT. The Spider GT features a larger head and a more stable design, giving Woods more confidence on the greens.

Additionally, Woods has made a minor adjustment to his irons. He has moved to TaylorMade P7TW irons, which are slightly more compact than his previous irons and offer more workability. Woods is known for his precision iron play, so this change should help him to dial in his approach shots.
