Si Woo Kim, a Callaway staff ambassador, is a multiple winner on the PGA Tour. Here, we take a closer look at the clubs that the South Korean star appears to have settled on for the 2024 season.
Driver
What Driver Does Si Woo Kim Use?
Kim plays with a Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond driver, which has 9° of loft. This is a model that offers exceptional looks, sound and feel, and is one that we have placed on our list of the best golf drivers for distance.
Crammed with technology, such as Ai Smart Face technology that uses swing dynamics from thousands of real golfers, the Ai Smoke Triple Diamond is a fantastic club in the low spin market.
Fairway Woods
What Fairway Wood Does Si Woo Kim Use?
Kim carries two fairways woods: a Callaway Paradym Triple Diamond fairway wood with 15° of loft and a Callaway Rogue ST LS fairway wood with 18° of loft. The former is a popular model with the better player, and one of the fastest, lower-spinning options on the market. Both are classic shapes and are decent options to have on tighter courses where there's a premium on finding the fairway.
Irons
What Irons Does Si Woo Kim Use?
The South Korean's irons line-up includes a Callaway X-Forged UT (21°), Callaway Apex CB iron (23°) and Callaway Apex MB irons (5-PW), The X-Forged UT is his 3-iron (a utility iron), a club that offers better players a blade style long iron with good feel and classy looks. It's quite a compact head which means it is not overly forgiving, but it does offer more margin error than most at this size.
Kim opts to carry a Callaway Apex CB 4-iron, which is one of the best irons for low handicappers.. His 5-PW are the Callaway Apex MB irons, a classic muscle-back design for the better player who is confident enough to shape the ball.
Wedges
What Wedges Does Si Woo Kim Use?
As well as his pitching wedge, Kim carries two more wedges: a Callaway Jaws Forged wedge with 52° of loft and a Callaway Jaws MD5 wedge with 58° of loft. The former, which was designed by wedge guru Roger Cleveland, offers exceptional control and can be found on our list of the best golf wedges.
The Callaway Jaws MD5 wedge has been a popular choice amongst Tour playerd and club golfers alike for its soft feel, high level of spin, and the wide variety of loft and sole grind options.
Putter
What Putter Does Si Woo Kim Use?
Kim appears to have ditched the broomstick putter, which he had started the year with. His latest model is an Odyssey Toulon Design - more specifically a custom Toulon Santa Monica. This is a model that we have yet to test, but you'll find Toulon putters on our list of the best Odyssey putters.
Ball
What Golf Ball Does Si Woo Kim Use?
Kim's ball of choice is the Callaway Chrome Tour, one of the best golf balls money can buy. This is a a beautifully soft feeling golf ball that will appeal to high speed and high spin players
Apparel/Shoes
What Shoes Does Si Woo Kim Wear?
When it comes to footwear, Kim wears adidas golf shoes, specifically the adidas ZG23, which is one of the most comfortable golf shoes on the market. The brand's new Lightstrike and Lightstrike Pro technology is used throughout a newly revamped midsole. adidas has used this technology in its running and basketball division, with the ZG23 being the first time it has been used in a golf shoe.
In terms of clothing, Kim is a Bad Birdie player, an emerging golf brand that has also signed Callum Tarren, Harrison Endycott and a number of LPGA Tour players.
