The Masters is one of the most prestigious championships on the golfing calendar, the only men's Major championship to take place at the same course every year.

Known for its stunning backdrop, Augusta National has produced many incredible finishes throughout its history, with one of the keys to success being the ability to put the ball in-play from off the tee.

Rory McIlroy tees off the 18th at Augusta National

Looking at the past winners, Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler, Jon Rahm and Dustin Johnson all ranked inside the top 10 for Strokes Gained: Off the Tee when they won, while an above average week for Hideki Matsuyama off the tee also secured him a Green Jacket.

Driving is so crucial to succeed around Augusta National and, ahead of the 90th Masters, we've taken a look at what drivers the world's best have in-play for the first men's Major of 2026.

Unlike the most-used golf balls at The Masters, where Titleist dominates, the most used driver brand is incredibly close between Titleist, Ping and Callaway, with the three manufacturers used by 24, 22 and 21 players.

It's not just the newest models either, as seven different Titleist heads feature, while seven Ping and seven Callaway models are also spread among the field.

Behind the trio of brands is TaylorMade, with four of the world's top 10 using its drivers. Srixon, Cobra, PXG and Krank make up the remaining 12 spots at The Masters.

What Is The Most Popular Driver Model At The 2026 Masters?

In total, 11 Ping G440 LST drivers are in-play at Augusta National, narrowly edging out the Titleist GT3 which is used by nine players.

Ranked as one of the best drivers money can buy, the low-spinning model is not just used by Ping staffers, but also equipment-free agents, including Patrick Cantlay and Chris Gotterup.

Matt joined Golf Monthly in February 2021 covering weekend news, before also transitioning to equipment and testing. After freelancing for Golf Monthly and The PGA for 18 months, he was offered a full-time position at the company in October 2022 and continues to cover news and social media.

Taking up the game when he was just seven years of age, Matt made it into his county squad just a year later and continues to play the game at a high standard, with a handicap of around 2-4. To date, his best round is a six-under-par 66 having been seven-under through nine.
