The Equipment Debrief: Masters Driver Leaderboard, New Metalwoods Seen On Tour And A Spider Spotting

You know who won the Masters. Again. But who topped the driver leaderboard at Augusta? Which brand dominated off the tee?

Before the action got underway last week, we noted every driver used at the Masters.

Titleist led the way with 24 drivers in play out of the 91 players in the field, closely followed by Ping (22) and Callaway (21).

As the dust begins to settle, and with a second Green Jacket safely tucked away for Rory McIlroy, here’s the final driver leaderboard, excluding those players who missed the cut.

Masters Driver Leaderboard

Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler, the top two at the Masters, continue to do the business with TaylorMade drivers. The Northern Irishman, who previously played the Qi10 model, switched to the Qi4D at the start of the year and is currently using the Core version of the TaylorMade Qi4D driver.

Meanwhile, the World No.1 has been switching between his old TaylorMade Qi10 and the Qi4D this season, although the former got the nod at Augusta.

Three players who made the cut at the Masters used the TaylorMade Qi4D LS version.

If we take just the players who made the cut at the Masters, the two most-used driver models were the Titleist GT3 and Ping G440 LST.

As for the top overall brands (drivers) at the 2026 Masters - again, taking the 54 players who made the cut - Titleist drivers were the most played over the weekend.

New Gear Spotted On Tour

The launch of Titleist’s GTS metalwoods range continues this week as the new GTS2 and GTS3 fairways start to make their mark on the professional tours.

Cameron Young, who finished tied third at the Masters, is among those players to get an early look at the GTS3 fairways.

Players champion Young had a GTS3 7-wood in the bag at Augusta, and we're sure to see a lot more in play at the RBC Heritage this week.

At the other end of the bag, keep your eye out on the greens for the new range of prototype TaylorMade Spiders.

Four of the current world's top 10 use a TaylorMade Spider model, and 40% of the world's top 20 have one - an impressive number.

So, what's next for one of the most popular putter ranges of all time?

At the moment, details are scarce, but the colorway appears to be similar to that of McIlroy's model, which has a bronze-type finish.

We look forward to sharing further details when we have them.
