Thomas Pieters What's In The Bag?
A player who has won six times on the European Tour in countries like the Czech Republic, Denmark and the Netherlands, Thomas Pieters has struggled of late to replicate the form that saw him make the 2016 Ryder Cup team. At that event, Pieters, despite being a rookie, played some incredible golf collecting four points from five matches, forming a destructive partnership with Rory McIlroy. However he has shown he is more than capable of winning of late, winning the 2022 Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship. Below we have taken a look at the clubs he used to do so.
Thomas Pieters What's In The Bag?
Driver
Titleist TSi2
In the past Pieters had been a Callaway staff player however it appears most of those Callaway clubs have been replaced. Now it looks like he is a Titleist staff player but we are yet to confirm if this is an official partnership.
At the top of the bag Pieters is using a Titleist TSi2 driver with 10 degrees of loft. In a recent video on the Titleist UK & Ireland Facebook page, Pieters said; "This was the first driver that I put down on the ground and I said that looks nice. It really suits my eye, I am a really visual player so if I try a club, one or two shots and I will have enough feedback but this one when I put it down from the start it just matched straight away." He also acknowledged that his old driver produced a bit too much spin and Pieters, along with Titleist club makers, brought this down with the TSi2.
Fairways
TaylorMade SIM Max
Pieters then uses a TaylorMade SIM Max three-wood and occasionally uses a TaylorMade SIM2 Max seven-wood as well but this comes in and out of his setup.
Irons
Titleist 620CB, Titleist 620MB
In the irons Pieters carries a combo set at the moment. He uses a 620CB four-iron, before transitioning into a set 620MB's from five down to nine-iron. We have occasionally seen a T100 go in the bag as a three-iron but his more common setup is the one we listed above. The 620 CB has a thinner topline and tungsten weighting in the 3 and 4-iron only to aid forgiveness, while the 620 MB is a one-piece forged muscleback designed to give the ultimate feel and shot making and has a new brushed finish.
Wedges
Titleist Vokey SM9
Moving to the wedges he carries four Titleist Vokey SM9's, three of which are the normal version, and one is the prototype model. They have 46, 52, 56 and 60 degrees of loft.
Putter
Scotty Cameron TourType SSS SB2
His putter has recently changed too. He was using an Odyssey mallet and blade but these appear to have been replaced by a Scotty Cameron TourType SSS SB-2. Interestingly it has a longer grip so it looks like Pieters has joined the armlock trend. The putter has a blade-like design but has a wider flange which we assume is to aid forgiveness and alignment.
Ball
Titleist Pro V1
His ball is a Titleist Pro V1. One of the best golf balls money can buy, the Pro V1 got five stars in our review and it is easy to see why. It provides superb all-round performance with impressive distance in the long game, excellent control into the greens and high levels of consistency throughout with a soft feel. It was also particularly impressive when playing in the wind.

A golfer for most of his life, Sam started playing the game to prove he was the best player out of his father and two brothers.
He quickly became a golf equipment expert and has always been the one family and friends come to for buying advice, and spends a lot of his time putting golf gear, apparel and shoes to the test.
He is a graduate of Swansea University where he studied History and American Studies, and he has been a part of the Golf Monthly team since February 2018. He also previously worked for World Soccer and Rugby World magazines.
A jack of all trades across print and digital formats, Sam now spends most of his time testing and looking after golf gear content for the website. He also oversees all Tour player content as well.
Unfortunately, Sam is not a member of any club at the moment but regularly gets out on the golf course to keep up the facade of having a handicap of five.

Driver: Titleist TS3

Irons (4-PW): Titleist AP2
