Here’s what the 2021 Open champion has in the bag
Collin Morikawa used TaylorMade equipment throughout his amateur career so it was no surprise when he signed with them after joining the professional ranks.
Morikawa now has six wins, including two majors, a WGC, a Race to Dubai and, of course, a Ryder Cup. Let’s take a look in his bag…
What’s in Collin Morikawa’s bag?
Morikawa’s TaylorMade set-up has changed slightly for 2023. At the top of the bag he has put the TaylorMade SIM driver back in play. He pairs this with a TaylorMade SIM 3-wood and a Stealth Plus 5-wood.
He has an interesting iron set-up with three of TaylorMade’s iron models being utilised. He carries a P770 4-iron, a P7MC 5, 6 and 7-iron and his own custom P7CM proototype blades.
Collin has tweaked his wedge set-up recently. He has kept the TaylorMade Milled Grind 3 wedges in his lower lofts but added a 60° TaylorMade Hi-Toe Raw model. This gives him more versatility for the variety of lies and shots you can be faced with during links golf.
He rounds out his bag with the new TaylorMade TP Collection Soto model, interestingly with a LA Golf shaft. He pairs thus with the TaylorMade TP5 golf ball.

What clubs did Collin Morikawa have in play for his Open Championship debut and victory?
SIM was the name of the game, a TaylorMade SIM driver, 3-wood and SIM2 5-wood were his weapons of choice at the top of the bag.
He used a combo set of irons that included TaylorMade’s P770, P7MC and P730 irons. Collin then used a TaylorMade Milled Grind 2 gap wedge and two Vokey SM8’s to round out his wedge set-up.
His TaylorMade TP Juno putter served him well on the greens as well as his TaylorMade TP5 golf ball.
