That’s a wrap on yet another PGA Tour season. A season that has saw Brooks Koepka pick up the most wins with three, including his fourth major championship with his two stoke victory over Dustin Johnson at the PGA Championship. This was the second time the American had won the major, after defending his US Open title in 2018.

With the off-season approaching, some of you may look to change your golf equipment. And, if you need some inspiration for what to use we have yo covered.

Here are the most used winning clubs on the PGA Tour this season…

Which clubs won the most PGA Tour victories?

The PGA Tour season came to an end with Rory McIlroy securing victory at the Tour Championship and claiming the FedEx Cup.

And it got me thinking. Which equipment claimed the most titles in the 2018-19 PGA Tour campaign? So I opened up a spreadsheet and got stuck in.

2019 PGA Tour winners clubs: Driver

Brand with most wins: TaylorMade 
Model with most wins:
 TaylorMade M5

Rory McIlroy

The two players battling it out for player of the year, Brooks Koepka and Rory McIlroy, have boosted the TaylorMade M5 winning stats both winning twice with the club in play. Overall this model recorded nine wins across 45 PGA Tour events.
