In 2025, Bud Cauley made a remarkable comeback to the PGA Tour, consistently appearing near the top of the leaderboards.

First gaining attention as the 2006 Junior Ryder Cup standout, he rose to become the world’s top-ranked amateur golfer. His journey took a harrowing turn in June 2018 after a serious car accident, resulting in multiple injuries and sidelining him for months. After a long recovery, Cauley returned to competitive golf in February 2024 at the WM Phoenix Open.

In 2025 he claimed impressive finishes, including sixth at the Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass and fourth at the Valspar Championship. His return showcased both his skill and resilience.

Roll on to 2026 and he completed this remarkable comeback with his first PGA Tour victory at the Canadian Open – winning by 2 strokes from Matt Fitzpatrick.

This article explores the contents of Bud Cauley’s golf bag to see which clubs he is choosing to help him, once again, feature at the top the leaderboards. Let’s delve into the Bud Cauley WITB 2026, which features the new Titleist GTS metals.

About the author

Paul Miller

Paul has been playing golf for around a fourth of a Century, whilst his time on this Earth is rapidly approaching half a Century!

During that time his handicap, on average, has gone down around half a shot a year and is currently at 8.

His general love of Sport included a time studying the Philosophy and Sociology of Sport.

In 2013 he co-authored a book chapter 'The good and bad of youth sport today'.

His passion for youth sport is equally matched in his role heading up the Buyer's Guides for National Club Golfer.

He wants to inform golfers what gear is the best whilst finding all the best golf deals so you can save money.

Since joining the equipment testing team at NCG he has become a hybrid convert and is ready to tell you to ditch the long irons if you want to hit more greens this season!

Paul uses Titleist GT3 driver, Callaway Ai Smoke hybrids, a SeeMore Giant Putter and a TaylorMade Tour Response golf ball.
