Rasmus Hojgaard What's In The Bag?
Teenager Rasmus Hojgaard became the first player born in the 2000s to win on the European Tour in 2019 thanks to a victory at the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open. He then won his 2nd and 3rd DP World our victories at the 2020 ISPS Handa UK Championship and 2021 Omega European Masters. He then got back into the winner's circle at the 2023 Made In HimmerLand.

Driver
Callaway Paradym Triple Diamond
Starting at the top of the bag Hojgaard has joined several other Callaway staff players, including his brother, by putting the Paradym Triple Diamond driver in the bag with 10.5 degrees of loft and a Mitsubishi Tensei AV Blue 65 TX shaft.
It has a 450cc clubhead and, although it is the more compact version, it still has those traditional looks that we've gotten to know and love from the brand. Performance wise, you will see a noticeable climb in distance, with the Triple Diamond producing a lower spin rate that leads to more carry. It may not be the most forgiving but, out of the centre of the face, there aren't many models which are better.

Fairway
Callaway Paradym Triple Diamond HL
Rasmus then also carries a Paradym Triple Diamond three-wood but it is the HL (high launch) option. It has around 17.5 degrees of loft and is fitted with a Mitsubishi Tensei AV Blue 75 TX shaft. Its design includes a deeper face, which is perfectly suited for the golfer who is looking to reduce spin and hit a lower and more penetrating ball flight.
Irons
Callaway X Forged, Callaway Apex MB

Moving to the irons Hojgaard often carries a Callaway X Forged iron with around 20 degrees of loft, before transitioning down into a set of Callaway Apex MB's which have a rust finish. Interestingly his set goes from four-iron down to the rarely seen 10-iron, and they all have KBS $ Taper 130 shafts. Even more interesting is that his brother also carries these irons from four to 10-iron as you can see above.
Wedges
Callaway Jaws Raw, Callaway Jaws Full Toe
His wedge setup is made up of two different Callaway wedges. He uses a Callaway Jaws Raw as his 50 degree option and his other two wedges have 56 and 60 degrees of loft, and they are both Callaway Jaws Full Toe's. All of his wedges are fitted with KBS $ Taper 130X shafts.
The Full Toe has grooves that extend all the way to the toe of the club to aid forgiveness around the greens and in bunkers, whilst it also rusts over time to aid spin and control.

Putter
Odyssey Toulon Design LeMans Tour
His putter situation has changed from TaylorMade, to Scotty Cameron, and again to Odyssey at the moment and he puts a Toulon Design LeMans Tour in the bag which has a larger mallet style head.
Ball
Callaway Chrome Soft X 2022
Finally he uses the 2022 version of the Callaway Chrome Soft X golf ball. When put up against the regular Chrome Soft, and Pro V1x, the Callaway X model was the fastest, offering a big jump in ball speed over its family model, and a slight jump on the Titleist design. We felt the slight tradeoff here is the firmer feel around the greens, but the X did still produce good short game spin and control.

Apparel/Shoes
adidas
Hojgaard wears adidas apparel and the ZG23 golf shoes which we think are one of the best golf shoes money can buy. New technologies have made the ZG23 a supremely comfortable, stable, and lightweight shoe that will keep golfers of all swing speeds fully supported during the swing. While the looks aren't as sharp as others, this is pound-for-pound one of the best spiked golf shoes of the year.
