Xander Schauffele's WITB at The Players Championship 2024: What’s In The Bag?

As day three unfolded at TPC Sawgrass, Xander Schauffele emerged as a late contender, taking the solo lead entering the final round with a remarkable score of 17 under par. Schauffele's flawless performance around TPC Sawgrass, highlighted by a third-round 65, saw him erase the four-stroke advantage held by Wyndham Clark at the day's outset.

Known for his precision, power, and consistency on the course, Schauffele’s equipment arsenal plays a pivotal role in his success. Let’s take a closer look at what’s in his bag and how it sets him up for greatness:

Driver: Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond 10.5°

At the heart of Schauffele’s game is his trusty Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond driver. Boasting a 10.5° loft, this club provides the perfect balance of distance and control off the tee. The marriage of the driver head with the Mitsubishi Diamana PD 70 TX shaft ensures optimal launch conditions, allowing Schauffele to attack the fairways with confidence.

3 Wood: Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond High Launch 16.5°

When precision is paramount, Schauffele turns to his Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond 3 wood. With a slightly higher launch angle at 16.5°, this club offers versatility off the tee and from the fairway. Teamed up with the Mitsubishi Diamana PD 80 TX shaft, Schauffele can navigate tight fairways and reach those elusive par-5s with ease.

Hybrid: Callaway Apex UW 21°

Navigating tricky lies and long approach shots is where Schauffele’s Callaway Apex UW hybrid shines. Featuring a 21° loft and paired with the Mitsubishi Kai’li White 90 TX shaft, this club offers the perfect blend of forgiveness and distance. Whether it’s escaping from the rough or attacking the green from distance, Schauffele relies on this club to deliver under pressure.

Driving Iron: Mizuno MP-20 3i

For the precision demanded by tight fairways and challenging tee shots, Schauffele trusts his Mizuno MP-20 3 iron. With its sleek design and True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue Mid X100 shaft, this club provides the control and consistency needed to split the fairway with surgical precision. It's the go-to option when accuracy is non-negotiable.

Irons: Callaway Apex TCB ’24 (4i - 10i)

The backbone of Schauffele’s iron game lies in his Callaway Apex TCB ’24 irons. From long approach shots to delicate approaches around the green, these irons deliver the performance Schauffele demands. Fitted with True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts, each iron in this set offers unparalleled feel and control, allowing Schauffele to attack pins with confidence.

Wedges: Callaway Jaws Raw (52-10S), Titleist Vokey Design SM6 (56-10 @ 57), Titleist Vokey Design WedgeWorks Proto (60-K @ 61)

When finesse around the greens is required, Schauffele turns to his array of wedges. From the versatile Callaway Jaws Raw pitching wedge to the precision of his Titleist Vokey Design SM6 and WedgeWorks Proto wedges, Schauffele has all the tools to get up and down from any lie. Each wedge is carefully selected to offer the spin and control necessary to escape trouble and save pars.

Putter: Odyssey Toulon Design Las Vegas Prototype 7CH

To finish off his masterful approach game, Schauffele relies on his Odyssey Toulon Design Las Vegas Prototype putter. Paired with a SuperStroke Zenergy Tour 2.0 grip, this putter provides the stability and feel Schauffele needs to roll in those crucial putts. It's the final piece of the puzzle in his quest for victory.

Ball: Callaway Chrome Tour X

Completing Schauffele’s equipment setup is the Callaway Chrome Tour X golf ball. Engineered for maximum distance and control, this ball allows Schauffele to shape shots and attack pins with confidence. Its performance characteristics perfectly complement Schauffele’s playing style, making it the ideal choice for tournament play.

Grips: Golf Pride MCC Align
