Whether you’re backing team Europe or the red, white and blue of the USA in at the Ryder Cup in Rome this week, you can now show your support through a range of clothing, bags and special edition wedges from Titleist and FootJoy.
We’re sure there will be plenty of color and noise among the crowd at Marco Simone, Rome, Italy this week, but for those supporting the teams from home, there are some really cool ways to show your allegiance. Titleist Vokey wedges have been the benchmark for performance in the wedge marketplace for some time now and are often considered some of the best golf wedges. There will now be the option to pick up a special edition, laser etched, Ryder Cup themed Vokey SM9 wedge. The USA themed wedge see’s a rippling US flag waving across the back of the blade, whereas if you’re supporting the likes of Rory McIlroy and the rest of the European contingent, your Vokey wedge will come etched with a parade of stars. While we can’t guarantee you’ll hit wedge shots in the same calibre as what you’ll see on coverage this weekend, you’ll at least have some cool kit to try and replicate them! We’re not sure what these will retail at just yet, but they’re definitely worth keeping an eye out for.
Ryder Cup themed SM9 wedges
For those supporting Luke Donald’s European side this week and after a new golf bag, it’s worth checking out the Titleist UK website where you can find four styles of team Europe bags, as well as some Italy themed, Ryder Cup style bags. You can choose between the large Tour bags that will be very similar to those used by the players this week, or for those of you who like to carry there is the option of the Players 4 StaDry - a mainstay in our best golf stand bags guide, as well as a pencil bag option, perfect for a quick nine holes.
On the FootJoy website there are a few Ryder Cup garments on offer that come logo’d with the Ryder Cup badge. From casual ‘1927’ themed T-Shirts ($45) - the first Ryder Cup held in Massachusetts and won by the USA, to some really smart tonal polo’s ($98) there is a lot to like about this special edition line. The 1927 Trophy Hoodie ($240) would have to be my favorites from the collection. The former of the two is made from luxury Merino Wool with a discreet side-armed trophy logo, this versatile hoody will look great both on the golf course, out with friends while remaining comfy when chilling at home.
While both sides go to battle in the city home of the colosseum, we will watch on eagerly to see if it’s blue and gold or the stars and stripes who take home the spoils.
