I was diagnosed with tendonitis in September of last year. I haven't been able to play a round of golf since August of 2023. I tried physical therapy, heat treatment, everything. My grandpa told me that I should get a PRP treatment done. Thankfully he was very good friends with a doctor who did it and got me in quickly when it could have been a 3-month wait. I got the treatment done on April 17, and the doctor told me to wait until April 26 to play golf at all. I played with one of my best friends and shot 42, which is not great for me but I was happy with that since I haven't been able to play in 8 months. He asked if I wanted to play again today and I couldn't resist. The day was off to a rough start I started Bogey, Double, lost ball for a double bogey going into the 4th hole which was a par 3. I had found this yellow pro v1 in the woods looking for my ball on 3, I decided to start playing it. There were around 20 mph winds all day with gusts up to 40 mph. The flag was in the front and it was 145 yards away dead into the wind. I grabbed 7 iron and was over the ball about to hit when my friend said he didn't think 7 was enough and that 6 was the best option with how strong the wind was. My friend and I discussed what we should do and what shot we should hit, we decided the best option for both of us was a flighted 6 iron. I hit first, and it could not have been a more perfect of a shot. It landed about 5 feet before the pin, bounced once, and rolled into the hole. It felt like a dream for a second, I turned around to my friend and we both started going crazy. I could not believe that I had made my second hole-in-one. I made my first hole-in-one when I was 7 playing with my great-grandpa, I hit driver on an 88-yard hole up the hill and it magically went in. I couldn't see that one go in or even know the significance of what I had just accomplished. Being 19 and not being able to compete for the past 8 months while being a collegiate golfer made this so much more special for me. www.titleist.com/.../dkim93vy1ewewkkdpfeb www.titleist.com/.../zxiu4amxmcliux54aphx

I’ve been playing golf for 48 years, always searching for that first ace. On 4/20/24, I finally accomplished that goal on my home course! At Chimera Golf Club, Henderson, Nevada… On Hole #7, a short par four, from 265 yards! Finally, the monkey is off my back! And, using a Titleist Pro V1 X, high vis-yellow.

I was fortunate enough to get my second career hole-in-one at Tanners Brook GC in Forest Lake, MN on Hole #8 which was 210 yards that day. the hole was playing into a north wind, and playing about 220-225, so I hit a low flighted 3-Hybrid, and it hit the berm in front of the green, and rolled onto the green about 25 feet and went in the hole. It's been 28 years since my first one, so it was good to ring the bell again! I used a Titleist Pro V1 golf ball for the achievement. Thank you, Titleist! www.titleist.com/.../qayyjsomzuruwra9rjpj

PGA TOUR | Corales Puntacana Championship Billy Horschel shot Sunday’s best round by two shots, carding a course record-tying bogey-free 63 to earn his eighth career PGA TOUR title. Playing a Pro V1x+ prototype golf ball and Titleist equipment setup that includes his TSR3 driver, mixed set of T100 and 620 MB irons and NEW Vokey Design SM10 wedges, Horschel closed with seven birdies and an eagle to post 23 under, coming from three shots back to start the day and win by two shots. On a windy Sunday in Punta Cana, Horschel hit 13 of 14 fairways, 72 percent greens in regulation and was a perfect 5-for-5 getting up-and-down. HORSCHEL LEADS 1-THROUGH-5 FINISH FOR TITLEST GOLF BALL PLAYERS twitter.com/.../1782398248335946166 Every player in the final top five at the Corales Puntacana Championship played a Titleist golf ball, with 75 percent of the field teeing up a Pro V1 or Pro V1x . 1. Billy Horschel (Pro V1x+ prototype) 2. Runner-up (Pro V1x) 3. Kevin Tway (Pro V1) T4. Charley Hoffman (Pro V1x) T4. Justin Lower (Pro V1x) HORSCHEL ON HIS TITLEIST GOLF BALL “The control of the Titleist golf ball is by far better than any ball on the market. When you hit a shot, when you try to hit a five-yard draw, you want that ball to turn five yards. You don’t want it to draw 10 yards, or you don't want it not to draw. So to be able to control the golf ball is such a vital key in the game of golf. Doesn’t matter what level you’re at. When you’re expecting a shot to turn out a certain way, control wise, and that golf ball is not doing what you want, you have an issue, and with a Titleist golf ball, I’ve never had an issue once.” “It’s a fine margin out here on the PGA TOUR and if you can find any little bit of an edge to give you that little bit of advantage I’m going to take it. And so for me having my spin rates be consistent, having the feel, the softness of the feel around the greens be the same, and how it’s going to land on the green. I want to know that ball, if I hit the shot the way I want, it’s going to produce with the results I want – and I get that, and I’ve gotten that throughout my entire career with the Titleist golf ball.” “For me it comes down to spin. I’m looking for the ball to spin the right amount or in a certain range with every club I have. So 7-iron, I’m looking for it to spin somewhere around the upper echelon and the spin rate of 7,000-7,200. I want control of the golf ball. I want to have the ability to take spin off... And so having a ball that spins more allows me to have more control. And I can take spin off three quarter shots, little half shots. That’s what’s allowed me to be successful on the PGA Tour.” What’s in the Bag? | Billy Horschel Golf Ball: Titleist Pro V1x+ prototype golf ball Driver: TSR3 9.0° | Fujikura Ventus Black TR 6 X Fairway Metals: TSi2 15.0° | Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black 70g 6.5 TX and TSi2 18.0° | Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black 80g 6.5 TX Irons: T100 3, 5 | True Temper Dynamic Gold 120 X100 and 620 MB 6-9 | True Temper Dynamic Gold 120 X100 Wedges: NEW Vokey Design SM10 46.10F, 52.12F, 56.08M, WedgeWorks 60V (@ 62) | True Temper Dynamic Gold 120 X100 (46), Dynamic Gold Tour Issue Onyx S400 (52-60) HORSCHEL ON HIS TSR3 DRIVER “The TSi was unbelievable. It was the longest, straightest driver I’ve ever hit. It was the fastest driver I’ve ever played. I achieved my highest ball speed on it, which was 178 [mph]. Loved the driver to death, had no plans of changing, but J.J. with Titleist said, ‘Hey, just give this a shot’... I finally tested it, and I was really shocked by how consistent the ball flight was. And how tight my misses were. I like to hit a little left-to-right shot. The ball wasn’t over-cutting when I missed it. My toe misses, if I did hit it off the toe, wasn’t diving hard left. And so it’s just a lot tighter. And so now that allows me to tighten up my lines, hitting it off the tee. Narrow fairways I can be more aggressive knowing I’ve got a driver that if I do miss it, it's not going to be too far off if I hit it dead center in the face. And then when I finally tested it on TrackMan, I was shocked to see the speed gain. So it's faster. And the dispersion rate off the tee with good from bad is a lot tighter, which we’re all looking for in the game of golf, especially at our level.” HORSCHEL ON HIS T100 LONG IRONS “I like a very soft feel because that’s what my senses are. I can have a good understanding of when it’s soft, where I’ve hit it on the face, whether I’ve hit it good, whether I’ve spun it too much, toe, heel. If it’s a little bit too much of a firm feel, then I can't really distinguish with where it is on the face or did it come off with enough spin, did it not come off with enough spin. So for me, I’ve always liked the softer feel and I think with Titleist, they’ve done a really good job of that, especially with the new T100’s, because when you get into the cavity back irons, it’s really easy to make it a firm feel. It's tough to make it feel soft like a blade. And they've done a really good job with that, with the new T100.” HORSCHEL ON HIS VOKEY WEDGES www.youtube.com/watch “For me, whenever I get a Vokey wedge, I know right away that this product is at the highest standard. It’s the best in the game of golf and it’s going to help my game in the areas I need. And then at the same time, when you have Bob and you have Aaron there on a weekly basis, being able to work with them to fine tune the little points that you're looking for. They offer suggestions whether it be bounce, loft or lies or numerous other things.” KORN FERRY TOUR | LECOM Suncoast Classic Titleist Brand Ambassador Tim Widing emerged victorious from a sudden-death playoff, earning his first career Korn Ferry Tour victory. Widing, gaming a Pro V1x golf ball and 14 Titleist clubs, including a TSR2 driver, T100 irons and NEW Vokey Design SM10 wedges, made three birdies over his final six holes to post the clubhouse lead. Both Steven Fisk and Patrick Cover matched Widing at 20 under to force the all-Pro V1x playoff. For the week at Lakewood National, Widing posted four rounds of 67 or better (67-64-67-66). He led the field in Greens in Regulation (63/74 including two playoff holes, 85%) and Scrambling (10/11, 91%). The 26-year-old Swede also hit 83 percent of his fairways.

Broadhurst put on a ball-striking clinic in the weather-shortened event, hitting all but two greens in regulation (34/36, 94%). The victory marks Broadhurst’s sixth career PGA Tour Champions title. KPGA | KPGA Founders Cup with Hanmaek CC Titleist Brand Ambassador Guntaek Koh made par on the first hole of a sudden-death playoff to capture his fourth career KPGA victory. Koh, trusting his Pro V1 golf ball, TSR2 driver, T-Series irons, NEW Vokey Design SM10 wedges and Scotty Cameron putter in his all-Titleist setup, opened the week with a course record-setting 61.

I came to the 9th hole not hitting particularly well so I asked my playing partner if I could try out his new T200 7 iron. He was reluctant, but finally agreed. I said I'd try and not get it dirty. Teed up my Pro V1 and hit a "dead solid perfect" 7 iron right at the flag. The ball never waivered, hit 10 feet in front of the flag, and rolled right in. Ace. Like something out of a Titleist commercial!!!!

Our group knew I had hit a good shot with my 6 iron, as we drove up towards the green and the surface came into view we could only see 3 balls. As we walked onto the green and looked in the hole we could see my Pro V1 and chaos ensued as well as a massive bar tab. www.titleist.com/.../dnymxqia8wdjgvelj1dv

I’ve been playing golf for approximately 55-60 years and had never had a hole in one. My low GHIN index for the last year is 7.7. I had just opened my new box of 4 dozen personalized Pro V1 balls, using the first ball out of the sleeve and hit in into the hole on #5. It took a small bounce about 5-10 feet from the hole and then rolled in. Playing with a foursome with a group of 20 guys today and one of the guys in the group ahead of us had one also on the same hole! My wife was playing with some ladies about 6 groups back, heard the news from the ranger and had a bottle of champagne sent out to us!

We were visiting our son in Atlanta and decided to play the Bobby Jones course as it overlooks the city and is really beautiful. When I hit the shot we saw it roll and disappear. Having been disappointed so many times, I assumed the ball rolled past the pin and down the green so I took my putter. After not seeing the ball on the green, I walked to the hole with cautious optimism and found the ball in the bottom of the cup. Being a huge Jimmy Buffett fan, I used a Pro V1 that my family gave me for Christmas with the lyrics to "One Particular Harbor" on it. I only use these for par 3's in the hopes of having this be the ball that eventually makes the hole in one. www.titleist.com/.../liwhzfbjvldiyzufqgkq www.titleist.com/.../puqaqjca4o4qwes4ngf2 www.titleist.com/.../ouobjyabhhwrarybrvkg

PGA TOUR | Masters Tournament The 88th Masters Tournament ended with a Pro V1 golf ball dropping into the bottom of the cup on the 18th green Sunday evening at Augusta National Golf Club, officially sealing a decisive victory for the 2024 Masters champion. A longtime Pro V1 golf ball player, the champion earned his second Masters title in three years with a closing 4-under 68, playing his final 6 holes in 3 under par to win by four shots. After the round, the champion credited his short game as the “most important” part of his game this week in Augusta, which the statistics proved out. According to Data Golf, he led the field in Strokes Gained: Around the Green (+1.97 per round), accounting for almost half of his tournament-best SG: Tee to Green (+4.12 per round). 1-2 FINISH FOR TITLEIST GOLF BALL PLAYERS The Masters champion led a 1-2 finish for Titleist golf ball players, with Ludvig Aberg (Pro V1x) finishing runner-up at Augusta National in his first major start. Eleven of the top 15 on Sunday’s final leaderboard were Titleist golf ball players. Fourteen of the 16 events played this season on the PGA TOUR have now been won with a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball, with 70 percent of all competitors teeing up a Titleist: 1. The Sentry Champion (Pro V1x) 2. Grayson Murray (Pro V1) – Sony Open in Hawaii 3. The American Express Champion (Pro V1) 4. Matthieu Pavon (Pro V1) – Farmers Insurance Open 5. Wyndham Clark (Pro V1x) – AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am 6. Nick Taylor (Pro V1x) – WM Phoenix Open 7. Jake Knapp (Pro V1 Left Dot) – Mexico Open at Vidanta 8. Austin Eckroat (Pro V1) – Cognizant Classic 9. Arnold Palmer Invitational Champion (Pro V1) 10. Brice Garnett (Pro V1) – Puerto Rico Open 11. THE PLAYERS Champion (Pro V1) 12. Peter Malnati (Pro V1x Yellow) – Valspar Championship 13. Stephan Jaeger (Pro V1) – Texas Children’s Houston Open 14. The Masters Champion (Pro V1) LUDVIG ÅBERG FINISHES RUNNER-UP IN FIRST MAJOR START Titleist Brand Ambassador Ludvig Aberg – playing a Pro V1x golf ball, TSR2 driver, T100 irons and NEW Vokey Design SM10 wedges – carded rounds of 73-69-70-69 to post 7 under and finish solo 2nd in his first major championship appearance. Åberg now has one victory, three runner-ups, five top-5's and eight top-10 finishes in his 20 PGA TOUR starts as a professional. What’s in the Bag? | Ludvig Åberg www.youtube.com/watch Golf Ball: Titleist Pro V1x Driver: TSR2 9.0° | Fujikura Ventus Black 6 X Irons: T100 4-PW | KBS Tour 130 X Wedges: NEW Vokey Design SM10 50.08F, 54.10S, 60.08M | KBS Tour 130 X ABERG ON HIS PRO V1 x “I like to put spin on the ball. I like to hit it a little bit higher to have a little bit of a different angle coming into the firmer greens that we play here on the PGA TOUR. So I think the Pro V1x helps me with that and it helps me to be able to compete against the best players in the world.” “I just love the feel around the greens, putting, chipping, I love the softer feel (of 2023 Pro V1x), and it flights the way that I want to.” “What you want when you’re chipping is that little extra feeling of checking up on the green, and making sure that when the greens get a little firmer and faster, you’re still able to put that spin on it. Which I feel like [the Pro V1x] allows me to do. Chipping and short game is such feel-based – what you like to feel, what you don't like to feel. And this allows me to have that creative mindset.” “We play so many rounds and you don't want to question your equipment. If you make a bad swing, you want to blame yourself and no one else. So that's where the ball comes in. And obviously you play in a lot of different conditions. The weather, the green, the grass, grass types, different kind of things. So it is very important to trust your equipment and that's what I do. I've never ever questioned the Titleist golf ball. It is #1 ball in golf and there's a reason for that.” ÅBERG ON HIS TSR DRIVER “I'm playing the TSR2, 9 degrees, it’s on a D4 setting. I've played this ever since it came out. I really love it... I mean, no matter what driver you play, the good ones are always going to be good, but that's not really how you play golf, unfortunately, because you're going to miss it off the center. You're going to hit it off the heel, you're going to hit off the toe every now and then. So for me, when I hit it off the toe, the spin numbers are still very good. It doesn't really go under 2,000 (rpm), which just obviously makes it stay in the air longer and doesn't get that left miss. And then the heel ones usually stays around under 3,000, which if you are in that little gap, that zone, I think that's when you can perform. Because like I said, you're not going to hit every driver great, but if you can kind of narrow down your misses a little bit, that's going to be key.” ÅBERG ON HIS 2023 T100 IRONS “I actually just ahead of this season switched into these. They're the ‘23 T100’s. I've never been kind of the blade guy. I feel like I need all the help that I can get with my irons, golf is hard enough. So I really like the look of it, feel of it. It performs really well and I feel like an iron is such feel-based. Obviously you want the numbers and the trajectories to match up what you feel, but it's so much what you see, look, feel, and I really love to feel the rounded edges, the semi-thin top line with an iron.” “You're not going to hit the same flight all the time. You might hit one a little bit higher. I like to do a little bit of everything with my irons. If I have a left pin, I might want to draw it in there. I have a right pin, I might want to cut it in there. So if I can have that same feel no matter what shot I'm hitting, how the club goes through the turf. I'm more of a soft feel guy and I feel like these irons have that soft feel. I don't feel any pinchy-ness. I don't feel anything like that when I hit them. It's very clean, it's very nice and soft.” ÅBERG'S VOKEY SM10 WEDGE SETUP At the start of the year, Åberg arrived in Hawaii for the Sentry with three NEW Vokey Design SM10 wedges in the bag to start the 2024 season. Week in and week out, Åberg plays a 50.08F gap wedge and a 54.10S sand wedge. He rotates between a WedgeWorks 60V lob wedge and a 60.08M lob wedge depending on course conditions. (He opted for the 60.08M this week at Augusta National.) “I got three wedges in my bag every week. Gap wedge, sand wedge, lob wedge... I've used these SM10's, I've made the switch right before the holidays and they're so nice. Like I said before as well, feel is so important with the wedges because you're going to hit a lot of chip shots, a lot of bunker shots. And if you don't like the feel, the sound, the look of it, you're going to have issues getting it up and down. So that's what I feel like. And then obviously the rounded edges around the toe, the top line, absolutely love it.” KPGA | The 19th DB Insurance Promy Open Titleist Brand Ambassador Sangpil Yoon opened the week with a 10-under 61 and closed with a bogey-free, 7-under 64 to earn his first professional victory. Yoon, gaming his Pro V1x golf ball, TSR driver, blended set of Titleist irons and Vokey Design wedges among his winning setup, posted 18 under over four days LaVie Est Belle Country Club, four shots clear of second place. For the week, 104 players (72%) played a Titleist golf ball , including each of the top 4 and seven of the top 9 finishers on the final leaderboard. Titleist also topped every major equipment category surveyed (golf ball, driver, fairway, hybrid, iron, wedge, putter), while half the field gamed a Titleist driver.

Last month on March 8, 2024, I experienced a moment of pure exhilaration that will forever define my 30-year golfing journey. On the revered South Course of the Coto de Cana Golf Club, I achieved a milestone like no other – my first albatross and hole-in-one on the challenging 17th hole, a Par 4 spanning 352 yards. With my steadfast TSR2 driver in hand and my cherished yellow Titleist Pro V1 ball at the ready, I took aim, swung, and watched in awe as the ball traced a perfect trajectory, gracefully landing on the green with seamless precision. This incredible feat stands as a testament to both my skill and the unwavering reliability of Titleist gear, marking a once-in-a-lifetime accomplishment that fills me with immense pride and gratitude. youtube.com/.../IBW0F0TLE9k www.titleist.com/.../buko0v8qdcfb2hozaxv4 www.titleist.com/.../ycmqe7iixzkyjzb26erx www.titleist.com/.../oazjyuuzzj0szbo35dns

Last month (March 8, 2024), I experienced an exhilarating moment that will forever be etched in my 30-year golfing journey. At the Coto de Cana Golf Club's illustrious South Course, I had made my first ever albatross and hole-in-one on the 17th hole - a challenging Par 4 stretching out to 325 yards. Gripping my faithful TSR2 driver, I teed up at the Blue tee with my favorite yellow Titleist Pro V1 ball, swung, and in a moment of pure magic, I saw the ball found its perfect trajectory, landing gracefully onto the green in a single, seamless motion.

I know many people on these forums are Titleist players and do prefer Pro V1s, but I've played TPs for half a year now and love them, I am switching many clubs over to Titleist, and curious if I should switch balls. I prefer lower shots and not so much spin to help with my baby slice, I need to go out to a ball fitting to try both out, but in your guys experience which feels better and plays better?

PGA TOUR | Texas Children’s Houston Open In control and undaunted down the stretch, Stephan Jaeger (Pro V1) closed in 3-under 67 to emerge from a crowded leader board in Houston and win by one shot – claiming the 13th victory for Titleist golf ball players in the first 14 events played this season on the PGA TOUR. It also marked the first PGA TOUR victory for Jaeger, 34, who posted rounds of 69-66-66-67 to finish the week at 12 under, one better than the group of five players who finished T2. For the week, Jaeger gained nearly six (+5.656) strokes tee to green, including more than three (+3.170) around the green. On Sunday, he got up and down on five of six attempts. Jaeger, who graduated from the Korn Ferry Tour in 2021 playing Pro V1 Left Dot , moved to Pro V1x midway through the 2022 season looking for more trajectory and spin. Six events later, he put Pro V1 in play and has played the model ever since.

Despite being a golfer who typically shoots in the high 80s and that it’s my third Hole in One was mostly due to luck with perhaps just a hint of skill, the thrill of achieving this remains as exhilarating as ever. After 15 years of consistent play, each new hole in one experience on different golf courses continues to get me addicted. Opting to play from the white tees still offers its advantages, reminding me to persevere and continue playing twice a week. Also I got all 3 hole in Ones playing Pro V1, and yes may be it’s coincidental but now I’ll be stumping my other golf balls for pro v1 only. www.titleist.com/.../xettw0rjolialkhd4dpi

It was a late afternoon game when I made this shot. I never thought I made a hole-in-one on this hole because it was a blind shot and I thought the ball just rolled down over the green. Upon going down to the green I noticed there was a divot near the cup and no ball to be found. I figured I'd grab my wedge thinking it probably rolled passed the green to the rough. I passed the hole didn't even bother looking in the cup. I didn't find my ball on the rough, so my dad, coming towards the cup, held up his phone started recording and said "No ball? Check the cup! Is that another hole-in-one!!?" It was in the cup, I picked it up and smiled saying, "It's my third hole-in-one since I've been playing golf and all of them with a Pro V1."

Often use a Calloway ball but had just finished 13 with losing a ball. Came to 14 with the wind in our face, took a Pro V1 out of my bag. Usually would use a wedge but with the wind used a 9 instead. Ball was dead straight and hit the front of the green. Could not see the hole only the top of the flag. When we got to the green my ball was not seen and I thought it probably got hung up in the grass in front. Looked but no ball. One of the other players walked by the hole and said, Congratulations you got an ace! Guess I should use a Pro V1 more often, huh?

It was from an elevated tee box, so I was fortunate enough to see it one hop - hit the pin - and go in. I have a double eagle from 4 years ago to go with the ace, both while using Pro V1 golf balls.

Playing Eastlake in San Diego ca (now known as enagic) The tour does a qualifier for the open there from time to time. We were having our monthly club tournament for our club called the lumberjacks. It was actually our Players championship tourney. I had a great start with a birdie on hole #1 i was tied for 1st until magic happened on hole #7 we were playing from the blue tee, I scoped 151 with a little wind in the face I pulled 8 iron and hit a cut into the left side of the green, my pro V1 hit left side and got a nice kick that rolled the ball toward the center and at the pin we all quietly watched as my ball disappeared!! I was in disbelief!! I’ve been close so many times but one finally fell and I took the solo lead in the tourney. Fast forward to the final hole I was down 2 and hit the pin with an eagle chip from 40 yards to almost force a playoff. I did secure 2nd and had the whole lumberjack crew waiting for me at the 19th for drinks. What an electric day!! www.titleist.com/.../scafgt2qk6rjc8iewgix

PGA TOUR | Valspar Championship Titleist Brand Ambassador Peter Malnati was unflappable down the stretch Sunday, coming home in 31 to win his second PGA TOUR title by two shots while leading a 1-2-3-4 finish for Titleist golf ball players. Of the 13 events played this season on the PGA TOUR, 12 have been won with either a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball model. Malnati, trusting his Pro V1x Yellow golf ball and full bag of Titleist equipment , including his TSR3 driver, blended set of T-Series irons, NEW Vokey SM10 wedges and Scotty Cameron putter, shot a final round 4-under 67 to reach his winning 12-under total. Malnati, 36, was in total control of his golf ball on the back nine on Sunday, hitting eight of nine greens and converting four birdies from stellar approach shots to pull away from the pack: No. 10: 133 yards to 16 inches No. 11: 83 yards to 4 feet, 5 inches No. 12: 161 yards to 15 feet No. 17: 198 yards to 6 feet, 2 inches He gained over 2.5 shots with his approach play alone over the final round (+2.79). Over the 72 holes in Tampa, Malnati made a field-best 20 birdies. He gained 3.45 strokes on the field off the tee (4th) and over eight shots (8.31, 3rd) on the field on the greens. He led the field in putts per GIR (1.60) and ranked T5 in GIR (65.28%, 47/72).

The Sentry Champion (Pro V1x) 2. Grayson Murray (Pro V1) – Sony Open in Hawaii 3. The American Express Champion (Pro V1) 4. Matthieu Pavon (Pro V1) – Farmers Insurance Open 5.

Cameron Young (Pro V1 Left Dot) T3. Chandler Phillips (Pro V1x+ prototype) T3. Mackenzie Hughes (Pro V1x+ prototype) MALNATI ON HIS PRO V1 x “I remember I was out on the course with J.J. [Van Wezenbeeck, Titleist Director of Player Promotions] in San Antonio, maybe in 2016 or ’17. I was playing [Pro V1] and I loved the way the V flew off the driver, but J.J. was just watching some iron shots. He's like, ‘Man, I think we could get you some more control. We can get you the flight you want by doing other stuff with the driver, shaft, loft, whatever. But your iron play, you’re just going to have more control of the ball. It’s going to stop faster on the greens for you in the X. And I’ve played it ever since and it has been right. My iron stats have improved. All the elements of the game are important out here, but being able to hit it on the green, get it close to the hole – that’s what it’s all about.” “It's the perfect ball for me, gives me just the right amount of spin off the irons and wedges to feel like I’m totally in control. And it still obviously has a great flight with the longer clubs too. “I started using it (Pro V1x Yellow) in Minnesota at the 3M Championship last summer. And the reason I switched to it is because my, at the time, 3-year-old, who is now four, liked them. And so, he's kind of over it now, but it still makes me think of him, and that’s worth a smile or two, which is worth a lot out there for me.” MALNATI WINS WITH T-SERIES IRONS, CLINCHES VICTORY WITH T150 5-IRON Peter Malnati took his blended set of T-Series irons ( T200 4 iron, T150 5 iron, T100 6-9 irons; True Temper AMT Tour White S400 shafts) to the winner’s circle, putting on a ball striking clinic on Sunday. Malnati gained 2.79 shots on the field with his approach play in the final round and hit eight of nine greens on the demanding back nine. One of Malnati’s best shots came on the 198-yard par-3 17th. Tied for the lead, he pulled his T150 5 iron and took dead aim, sticking his Pro V1x to 6 feet, 2 inches from the cup. He converted the birdie to go up one shot with one to play. Malnati’s T150 5 iron was a new addition to his bag this season, and he first put it in play at the Sony Open seeking more height and forgiveness. “I’ve played a T200 4-iron for several generations, and that’s a great transition for me because it’s a little bit more forgiving, but just easy height,” he said. “I was like, if the 150 is kind of in the middle, would that be a nice transition to go to that in the 5 iron? So J.J. sent me one, just purely experimental, but instantly, my carry distance was the same, but launch was a little higher and height was a little higher. And I can easily make it go lower if I need to, but I can't necessarily easily make it go higher if I need to. So that club, having the same look and feel as my [T100] 5 iron, but just launching it a little higher without losing any speed or carry distance seems like a no brainer.” Said Malnati of his Sunday 5-iron at 17: “I remember telling my caddie I needed to make a 2 – I needed to hit it 208. And 208’s a pretty big 5 iron for me, but in the situation I was in, it was just a very normal 5-iron. ... But that was really fun in that moment to just step up, not overthink it, just it's a full 5 iron at the TV tower, go. And to watch that ball fly was a really cool feeling, to have it like tracking the hole there, that was really nice.” MALNATI DIALED WITH TOUR’S FAVORITE DRIVER Gaming his TSR3 9.0° driver (Project X Denali Blue 60 TX), Peter Malnati gained over three shots on the field off the tee (+3.45), setting himself up for field-best 20 birdies. Titleist has been the most played driver on the PGA TOUR for five seasons and counting, with a total of 60 players (39%) gaming a Titleist driver this week in Tampa, 27 more than the nearest competitor. That list also included Titleist Brand Ambassador Cameron Young , who finished two shots back in solo second. Young, gaming a TSR3 9.0° driver (Accra Tour Z5 65 M5) as well as a TSR 2W 13.0° prototype 2-wood, led the field in Strokes Gained: Off the Tee, gaining 4.95 shots. FOUR WINS IN A ROW FOR VOKEY WEDGE PLAYERS Peter Malnati made the move to four NEW Vokey Design SM10 wedges – 48.10F, 52.12F, 56.08M (@57) and 60.04T (@62) – in his first opportunity earlier this season at the American Express Championship. His victory Sunday makes it four straight wins – and five of the last six – for players gaming Vokey Design wedges on the PGA TOUR: Valspar Championship – Peter Malnati (NEW Vokey Design SM10 48.10F, 52.12F, 56.08M (@57), 60.04T (@62) wedges) THE PLAYERS Championship & Arnold Palmer Invitational Champion (Vokey Design SM8 50.12F, 56.14F, SM9 WedgeWorks 60T wedges) Puerto Rico Open Champion (Vokey Design SM9 50.08F, 54.14F, NEW SM10 WedgeWorks 60A+ wedges) Malnati on his lob wedge setup: “At the advice of [Vokey Wedge Rep] Aaron Dill a couple of years ago, I was struggling with some of my pitch shots around the greens, feeling like I was just having to work too hard to hit those ones where the chipping area sits down low and the green sits up high. And he said, ‘you want to try a 62-degree?’ And so I did... And I've had a 62 in the bag ever since. And it helps me a lot.” MALNATI LIGHTS OUT WITH SCOTTY CAMERON PUTTER Peter Malnati gained over eight strokes on the field (+8.31, 3rd) with his Scotty Cameron TourType Special Select Masterful 1.5 tour prototype putter this week at Innisbrook, leading the field in putts per GIR (1.60) with the Newport-style blade. Malnati first put his current gamer in play at last season’s Farmers Insurance Open after a testing session with Scotty Cameron Tour Rep Brad Cloke . In the two events leading up to the Farmers, Malnati had tried a Phantom X 11.5 mallet. “I wanted him to get back to his feels, get back to feeling the blade and not fighting the mallet,” Cloke said. “He experimented with higher MOI, but he’s a feel guy, he doesn’t get real technical. He’s more of, I see it, I want to feel it. This was something that allowed him to get back to putting naturally, like he does. He’s stuck with it ever since Farmers and his putting stats have been outstanding.” For the season, Malnati ranks 13th in total putting and 16th in one-putt percentage. DP WORLD TOUR | Porsche Singapore Classic Jesper Svensson (Pro V1) prevailed in a sudden-death playoff to earn his first DP World Tour title, having shot a course record-matching final round 63 to force extra holes. Svensson, 28, began Sunday five shots off the lead before starting birdie-birdie-eagle. He went out in 30 and continued to take it deep on the back nine, eventually signing for a 9-under round that featured eight birdies and two eagles. Clutch birdies on Nos. 17 and 18 saw him reach 17 under, sending him back to the 18th tee for a playoff. Svensson matched his opponent with a birdie and a par on the first two go-arounds before making a tournament-winning par on the third extra hole. For the week in Singapore, Svensson was in total control of his Pro V1 , gaining 2.72 strokes on the field off the tee, 1.56 strokes with his approach play and 3.48 strokes around the green. PGA TOUR CHAMPIONS | Hoag Classic Newport Beach Playing a Pro V1 golf ball, three-time major champion Padraig Harrington secured his seventh PGA TOUR Champions victory at Newport Beach CC. Harrington made six birdies in his final round — including three in his last four holes — to reach 14-under-par for the tournament and win by one shot. This followed Harrington’s impressive closing stretch on Saturday, which included an eagle and two birdies in his final four holes. He is projected to jump to No. 5 in the Schwab Cup standings. JLPGA | AXA Ladies Golf Tournament Reika Usui (Pro V1x) shot a bogey-free 6-under final round 66 to post 13 under and win for the first time on the JLPGA. ... #TeamTitleist

PGA TOUR | THE PLAYERS Championship THE PLAYERS Champion and longtime Pro V1 golf ball player became the first player to ever successfully defend his PLAYERS title, making it 11 wins for Titleist golf ball players through the first 12 events of the 2024 PGA TOUR season, including each of the last five: 1. The Sentry Champion (Pro V1x) 2. Grayson Murray (Pro V1) – Sony Open in Hawaii 3. The American Express Champion (Pro V1) 4. Matthieu Pavon (Pro V1) – Farmers Insurance Open 5. Wyndham Clark (Pro V1x) – AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am 6. Nick Taylor (Pro V1x) – WM Phoenix Open 7. Jake Knapp (Pro V1 Left Dot) – Mexico Open at Vidanta 8. Austin Eckroat (Pro V1) – Cognizant Classic 9. Arnold Palmer Invitational Champion (Pro V1) 10. Brice Garnett (Pro V1) – Puerto Rico Open 11. THE PLAYERS Champion (Pro V1) This week at THE PLAYERS, four of the top five finishers on Sunday’s final leader board trusted a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball: 1. THE PLAYERS Champion (Pro V1) T2. Wyndham Clark (Pro V1x) T2. Brian Harman (Pro V1) 5. Matt Fitzpatrick (Pro V1x) VOKEY WEDGES AT THE PLAYERS There were a total of 227 Vokey Design gap, sand and lob wedges in play this week in Ponte Vedra, accounting for more than half of the field’s total (54%). Vokey wedges have been the most played wedge on the PGA TOUR since 2004. TITLEIST IS MOST PLAYED DRIVER AT TPC SAWGRASS Titleist, the most played driver on the PGA TOUR for the last five seasons, was once again the top choice at THE PLAYERS with 55 players (38%), compared to 31 (21%) for the nearest competitor. Three of the top five finishers had a Titleist driver in the bag. NOW WORLD NO. 4, CLARK CONTINUES RISE AFTER SWITCH TO TITLEIST EQUIPMENT Titleist Brand Ambassador Wyndham Clark earned his second runner-up finish in consecutive weeks, playing his final three holes in 2 under par Sunday to come up one stroke shy of a playoff at TPC Sawgrass. The reigning U.S. Open champion made his first PGA TOUR start of 2022 (The American Express) with a brand new bag of Titleist equipment , having played competitive clubs through his last event of ‘21 (RSM Classic). Over that offseason, Clark visited the Titleist Performance Institute to get dialed in to his new setup. In January of ‘22, when he teed off in the first round of the AmEx, Clark was ranked 249th in the Official World Ranking. Forty-six starts later, following last summer’s U.S. Open victory at The Los Angeles Country Club, Clark had climbed to No. 13. After his T2 Sunday at The PLAYERS, Clark moved to No. 4 in the world, his highest position ever. One of the more impactful changes has been his driver. After making the switch to Titleist TSi3 , he finished the 2021-2022 season 61 spots higher and gaining strokes off the tee (+.209) compared to the previous season Clark is up to 24th in that statistic (+0.457) this season after gaining +1.825 shots off the tee this week at TPC Sawgrass. “I use this driver because it’s so consistent. My misses are incredible and that’s big for me...,” he said. “When you miss with the Titleist it stays within the parameters that I need to play good golf. And that’s ultimately why I use Titleist clubs, especially this driver.” Earlier this season at Pebble Beach, Clark made the move to a new TSR3 driver model. Clark had experienced immediate speed gains with TSR during his initial testing sessions last year, but was hesitant to make any changes following his breakout summer. On Tuesday at Pebble, Clark worked with J.J. Van Wezenbeeck, Titleist’s Director of Player Promotions , to dial in his TSR3. According to Van Wezenbeeck, Clark’s swing has evolved in recent years to become much more neutral, allowing for a more neutral setup in his driver. The result – TSR3 9.0°, Project X HZRDUS Smoke Green 60 6.5 shaft, D1 SureFit setting (-.75* loft, standard lie), +4g SureFit CG weight (12g) in H•1 (Slight draw) – delivered a better spin-to-launch ratio with the increased speed he’d already seen. “I switched to the TSR3. It had a touch more ball speed and a little more spin for me, which was huge. And then I was able to keep it straighter. I sometimes tail it off too much with fade. And so [at Pebble] kind of Monday, Tuesday, we did some fittings and honestly, that was one of the biggest keys.” What’s in the Bag? | Wyndham Clark Golf Ball: Titleist Pro V1x Driver: TSR3 9.0° | Project X HZRDUS Smoke Green 60 6.5 Irons: 620 CB 4-9 irons | True Temper Dynamic Gold X7 Wedges: NEW Vokey Design SM10 46.10F, 52.12F, 56.10S, WedgeWorks 60A (@ 59) | True Temper Dynamic Gold S400 THE STORY BEHIND BRIAN HARMAN’S SWITCH TO PRO V1, TITLEIST EQUIPMENT Playing the weekend in 12 under par, Titleist Brand Ambassador Brian Harman earned his best PLAYERS finish (T2) to moved to No. 8 in the Official World Ranking. During that offseason, he made a call to Titleist Tour Rep Jim Curran , asking for a set of Titleist irons, similar to the ones he had played as a junior golfer and in college at the University of Georgia. Said Curran: “Brian called me during the offseason holidays last December (2016) and said he played Titleist irons before he turned professional and has not had that feel in his iron ball striking since then. He ordered a set of 716 CB’s and we agreed to meet on the range in Palm Springs the Monday of CareerBuilder. It was then that we dialed in his loft, lies and yardages. From there, Brian was low maintenance all season. I would check his grips, lofts and lies roughly once a month and he did the rest.” Harman put his new set of CB’s in play for the first time that Thursday at PGA West’s Nicklaus Course. (He now plays the 620 CB models.) “Very first time when I played (the CB’s) was in Palm Springs,” Harman said in 2018. “I worked with Mr. Jim Curran and we got them figured out. Finished third that week and I was having a pretty nice year.” Three months later, Johnson Wagner asked Harman, who was still playing a competitive golf ball, if he wanted to team up at the Zurich Classic (the first year that the Zurich went to the team format). “He was kind of curious as to what ball we wanted to play,” Harman said. “I said, ‘I played Titleist balls in college and everything. We’ll just play your ball (in alternate shot), no problem. “We had a nice tournament... It got really windy. I was hitting some shots with Johnson’s ball, shots that I just couldn’t hit with the ball I was playing. After that round, I decided to switch to the Pro V1. …” “I hit one shot on the second hole the last day in New Orleans (with the competitive ball) that spun up into the wind. I hit it flush but it came up 10 yards short and plugged in the bunker. And I just remember thinking, ‘That’s the last time I’m going to hit that ball. I’m switching balls.’” The following week, Harman teed up Pro V1 at the Wells Fargo Championship. On Sunday, he birdied 17 and 18 at Eagle Point GC to win by one shot. “I won the next week with it (Pro V1), the very first week I played it,” Harman said. Harman reiterated the significance of his switch prior to the ‘22 Open Championship at St. Andrews, where he finished T6: “The reason I switched back to Titleist was because of windy days and with Open Championships and major championships in mind. To flight the ball and not have to worry about it getting up and getting out of hand was a big deal.” “I switched to this ball in 2017 from a different company and the effects were immediate. You know, the last four years on tour have been my best four put together,” Harman said prior to the 2022 U.S. Open. “I just was never able to flight my old ball. I had trouble controlling and especially in the wind and we ended up playing so much wind out here. The effects for me were immediate switching to this Pro V and I mean, it’s been a complete 180. The way that I flight iron shots, the way that I control it around the green, it saves me, I don't know how many shots it’s saved me.” When Harman arrived at the winners-only Sentry Tournament of Champions to open 2018, there were several new additions to his bag, including a new Titleist driver, fairways and full set of Vokey Design wedges.

I was perusing the list of players that use Titleist equipment on the site ( www.titleist.com/.../players) and noticed Scottie Scheffler wasn't listed anymore as a Pro V1 ball player. Is he no longer on contract with Titleist or is it a database issue? Curious if anyone else noticed this too.

I had just finished working a morning shift at the golf course, and decided to play an afternoon round with a group of friends. It was hole 12, over the pond, to a right front pin. It was a clear sunny day with no wind, and I was between clubs before the shot. Decided to hit a cut off 9 iron instead of a pitching wedge. Flushed it with a little draw tracking at the pin. It landed a foot to the right of the hole pin high, skipped forward, and spun back into the hole. It was difficult to believe and see, but when we got to the green the divot was right beside the hole and my pro V1 was at the bottom of the cup. This was my first hole in one and I will never forget it. www.titleist.com/.../q0ylogtg02oiifs4k9vl

Just curious of what golf ball everyone plays. Many balls suit a specific kind of someone’s golf game. For me, I play the Titleist Pro V1. It has soft feel, more spin around the greens, great distance, and even a good ability to shape the ball as well.

I’ve been golfing since the 1970’s. I was playing a good game with two other friends when we came up to hole 7, a 116 par 3 into a slight head win. I launch a nice 9 iron high into the air and it hit the middle of the green. The flag was on the back right corner over a small downhill. We never saw it go into the hole but there it was. My Titleist PRO V1 is now in my trophy case. At 72 years old I’m as happy as I can be. www.titleist.com/.../jxu2qb5knjlqajgtowuk

Windy day in February, playing golf in the Northeast. Finally a nice day in February, went down to my local course to get some swings in and get some exercise. Sunny day but wind blowing 20+ 4th hole is a elevated tee box, plays around 85 Yds. normally but wind in my face I clubbed up to a 100 Yard shot. So I reached into my pocket & pulled out my ball, Titleist Pro-V1. As soon as I hit it I knew it was good shot, at first I thought it was a little long but wind knocked it down a little bit, ball hit on edge of cup, rattled the pin & dropped straight in. Guys on 2nd hole turned & yelled up, dude that went in! Yeah baby, so exciting. High fives & a few photo's and back into golf mode to finish my round. Couldn't wait to get home to tell my Wife. Thank you Titleist for making great quality balls.

PGA TOUR | Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches In absolute control of his Pro V1 golf ball, Austin Eckroat played The Bear Trap in 1 under par to punctuate a three-shot victory at PGA National and capture his first PGA TOUR victory. With 10 holes to play in Monday’s weather-delayed finish, Eckroat pulled away with unwavering ball-striking, particularly through PGA National’s toughest three-hole stretch, playing 15-16-17 in par-birdie-par. “He did it with a straight shot on 15, a draw on 16 and a cut on 17. Complete control,” NBC analyst and Titleist Brand Ambassador Brad Faxon said on the broadcast. Eckroat, 25, led the field in Greens in Regulation at 82% (59/72), gaining more than five shots on the field on approach (+5.829). The longtime Pro V1 player made a field-best 23 birdies, posting four rounds of 68 or better (65-67-68-67). EIGHT OF NINE TOUR EVENTS WON WITH A TITLEIST GOLF BALL IN 2024 Austin Eckroat's victory at the Cognizant Classic marked the eighth event won with a Titleist golf ball in nine PGA TOUR events to start the 2024 season: 1. The Sentry Champion (Pro V1x) 2. Grayson Murray (Pro V1) – Sony Open in Hawaii 3. The American Express Champion (Pro V1) 4. Matthieu Pavon (Pro V1) – Farmers Insurance Open 5. Wyndham Clark (Pro V1x) – AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am 6. Nick Taylor (Pro V1x) – WM Phoenix Open 7. Jake Knapp (Pro V1 Left Dot) – Mexico Open at Vidanta 8. Austin Eckroat (Pro V1) – Cognizant Classic Of the eight winners who trusted a Titleist, Eckroat is also the fifth first-time winner on the PGA TOUR, joining Grayson Murray , the American Express champion, Matthieu Pavon and Jake Knapp in breaking through with a victory in 2024. Over the nine events played on the PGA TOUR in 2024, Titleist golf balls have been chosen a total of 746 times (70%), compared to 134 (12%) for the next closest competitor. ECKROAT ON THE PERFORMANCE OF HIS PRO V1 “I've been playing the Pro V1 since I was a kid, it's always been good for me. I feel like I have the control around the greens, [it] has the high ball speed numbers. It does everything I want it to do.” “I mean, the consistency within the ball is something that you really need. It's something I've never worried about playing a Pro V1. Never even crossed my mind to wonder if the bad shot I just hit was my golf ball.” KORN FERRY TOUR | 117 Visa Argentina Open Mason Andersen (Pro V1x) birdied the par-5 18th three times on Sunday – once in regulation and twice in a sudden-death playoff – to earn his first career Korn Ferry Tour win and a spot in field at the 152nd Open Championship at Royal Troon. Andersen, who began Sunday six shots off the pace, made six back-nine birdies to come home in 29 and post the clubhouse lead at 17 under after a final round 63. When Kris Ventura (Pro V1 Left Dot) matched him over 72 holes, the duo headed back to the 18th tee for extra holes. Andersen and Ventura traded birdies on the first playoff hole before Andersen prevailed on the second. For the week in Buenos Aires, Andersen made 24 birdies – including his two in extra holes – and only dropped three shots (T1). With the win, he jumped to the top of the Korn Ferry Tour Points List, up 21 spots from his position to start the event.

Spin control and a penetrating trajectory are just some of the reasons why the PGA TOUR’s newest champion, Jake Knapp , trusts his Pro V1 Left Dot golf ball to perform in the biggest moments. Hear more from Jake below on how he marks his Pro V1 Left Dot and why this model is the best fit for his game: www.instagram.com/.../ The Proof is in the Stats Knapp capped off his first PGA TOUR title with a 25-birdie week and a two-shot victory. In full control of his Titleist golf ball , Knapp carded rounds of 67-64-63-71 at the Mexico Open to post 19 under, while gaining 11.5 strokes on the field from tee to green. He led the field in Strokes Gained: Approach (+8.729), hitting 76% greens in regulation (T5), and ranked 11th in SG: Off the Tee (+2.973). Down the stretch Sunday, Knapp got his Pro V1 Left Dot up-and-down on four of the last six holes, including a birdie on the par-5 14th, to secure the victory. The performance spotlighted Knapp’s recent results, which have vaulted him to 11th on the PGA TOUR in SG: Tee to Green (+1.235) and No. 8 in the FedExCup standings. He has played his last three events (216 holes) on TOUR in 38 under par, including his T3 finish at the WM Phoenix Open.

LPGA | Honda LPGA Thailand Playing on home soil, Titleist Brand Ambassador Patty Tavatanakit closed in 5-under 67 Sunday in Thailand to earn her second LPGA victory while leading a 1-through-8 finish for Titleist golf ball players. On the 72nd hole, Tavatanakit pitched her Pro V1x golf ball in tight to set up the tournament-clinching birdie at Siam Country Club’s Old Course. It marked back-to-back wins for Tavatanakit, who also won last week on the Ladies European Tour. Also gaming a TSR2 driver, T-Series irons and NEW SM10 wedges, “Patty T” posted four rounds of 67 or better (67-67-66-67), good for a 21-under total that featured 23 birdies and an eagle. She also hit over 80% of her greens in regulation (58/72). Fellow Titleist Brand Ambassador Albane Valenzuela finished one shot back after a closing 9-under 63, the best round of the day.

Titleist has always been the number one ball in golf, so when you go out on the course, you just play and don't think about that.” “When I flight the ball lower, it can still spin really, really well, and when I need to hit it high, I get that max spin for the max carry.” “Off the tee, it does spin a touch more than the Pro V1, which I like because that way I could get maximum carry out of it. It would fly a touch higher, which would make the ball carry a little bit further. And then when I do bring it down, it would still go down. So, it's really manageable, this ball.” TAVATANAKIT MAKES THE MOVE TO NEW SM10 WEDGES Tavatanakit began her 2024 LPGA season in January at the Drive On Championship after adding three NEW Vokey SM10 wedges (50.12F, 56.08M, 60.04T) to her bag. Having previously gamed prior generation Vokey wedges, Tavatanakit worked with Vokey Tour Rep Shane Dyel to determine her setup with the new models. Said Dyel: “What's so special about Patty is her attention to detail and her perception of feel. When I worked with Patty on her SM10’s she could see and feel the difference between her previous generation Vokey wedges and the new SM10 wedges.” “With her wedge setup we talked about how she can be more versatile with every wedge in the bag, and it all starts at the top with her 50.12F. This grind gives her unlocked versatility from full shots in the fairway to low, high-spin runners around the greens. Our change in CG location has allowed Patty to be aggressive on shots when she needs to be.” “Going into her SM10 56.08M, the new model gave her more help with the lower flight and higher spin she always looks for. She has found it to be easier to flight down her shots without sacrificing speed, which was a huge difference from her previous generation Vokey 56.08M. “Lastly, her 60.04T is the most versatile and the most feel-sensitive wedge Patty has in the bag. Without a doubt, Patty saw not only an increase in feel, but also complete sole control compared to her previous generation 60 T grind.” www.instagram.com/.../ VALENZUELA RECORDS CAREER-BEST FINISH Titleist Brand Ambassador Albane Valenzuela carded a final round 9-under 63 to finish solo 2nd, the best finish of her LPGA career. Valenzuela, who finished the week at 20 under, one shot back of Tavatanakit , began her final round with a birdie on the par-5 1st and a hole-out eagle on the par-4 5th. On the back nine, she birdied six of her final eight holes, including Nos. 17 and 18, to come home in 30 and take the clubhouse lead, putting the pressure on Tavatanakit.

It was a beautiful evening for men’s night at Thomson Lake Regional Park in Sask, on July 26, 2023. It was a shotgun start so I ended my round on Hole #3, which is a 160 yard Par 3 and is slightly uphill. The shadows were getting long when I tee’d up my Titleist Pro V1 on the last hole. I am a Senior golfer and I selected my 4 Hybrid as the shot was playing about 170 due to being uphill and the cooler air setting in. I made great contact with a slight draw and the ball landed on the front of the green, bounced once and rolled perfectly into the hole. After a few high fives we finished the hole and went to the clubhouse to celebrate. The hole in one was very special because my son was there to witness it along with a couple of other club members. The bad news was that there was 70 golfers for men’s night so the round was pricey, but I did win the deuce pot and closest to pin prize which helped offset the cost and the clubhouse gave me Happy Hour prices! www.titleist.com/.../aq8chieegnpi9ulpyeig

I was playing at my local club, Moorestown Field Club, in NJ. I had a 10 am Tee time and it was about 39 degrees. I was hitting a yellow Pro V1 on hole 4. It was playing approximately 87 yards with a cross wind left to right. I hit my 50 degree loft wedge, I hit it approximately 3 yards past the hole and rolled back into the cup! I’m 42 and I started playing golf when I was in the USMC 20 years ago. Thank you for allowing me to post my accomplishment!! www.titleist.com/.../v5snqijsmnouxalsuf6a

I’m 74 and was paired up with a few 30 somethings. The youngsters were pretty much really long with nice looking swings. On hole eight I mentioned to them that with the pin placement in the back left if you hit to the far right side of the green the ball would roll to the pin if you had enough carry. I had a 6 iron in my hand for the 168 yard shot but at the last second I decided to go up a club due to the cool February breeze. I hit the 5 iron a couple of paces back from the tee marker and as the ball approached the green I said “right there.” The ball landed on the upslope but managed to make it to the upper level and rolled across the slope about 30 feet right into the hole. The youngsters were pretty excited, one stating he had never seen a hole in one. Another said you called your shot and damn if you didn’t make it. This was my third hole in one. All with Titleist Pro V1’s.

Heading down to Myrtle Beach with a friend at the end of March and I was wondering if anyone has any more information than me on whether there has been any talk about the Buy 3 Get 1 Pro V1s this year? I always love starting the year off with new balls, and I was hoping they would do the same thing this year.

LET | Aramco Saudi Ladies International Titleist Brand Ambassador Patty Tavatanakit shot a final round 7-under 65 to cap off a wire-to-wire, seven-shot victory. Tavatanakit, gaming a Pro V1x golf ball, TSR2 driver, NEW T-Series irons and NEW Vokey SM10 wedges, made 20 birdies and an eagle for the week on her way to earning her fifth professional victory. The 24-year-old was a perfect 18-for-18 in greens in regulation on Sunday, and she finished in style, sticking her Pro V1x in tight on the 72nd hole for a closing birdie. TAVATANAKIT ON WHY SHE PLAYS PRO V1 x “I need to hear a good sound from the golf ball. I need to hear it. I need to feel it.

Pro V1s, exactly the same. And so, I was like, ‘Okay, I need to add something to my golf ball.’ And so, I put my initials in Sharpie on the back side of my ball. And then I just started doing 200, which was actually kind of funny. I had 200 days off, of not touching a golf club, from when I was out. And so, it's kind of a nice little reminder of where it's like, okay, if I make a couple bogies, it's like, ‘Well, it beats what you were doing for those 200 days.’ But yeah, really, I've kept adding things as the years have gone on, because there's so many guys that play Titleist. And I think it was funny, in my 11th event on Tour, there's three guys standing on a tee with three Titleist Pro V’s, black, black line, exactly the same. And I’m like, alright, I need to start adding stuff to my ball.” On Friday at The Genesis, Zalatoris stepped to the tee on the 184-yard, par-3 14th and pulled his T150 7 iron. He struck his Pro V1x toward the pin and watched it carry the front left bunker before rolling right into the cup for an ace. Zalatoris finished the week ranked fourth in Strokes Gained: Approach (+5.283). He also gained more than a shot on the field Off the Tee (+1.437, 15th) and Around the Green (+1.285, 17th). His 22 birdies for the week at Riviera led the field, and he finished T3 in Greens in Regulation (68%, 49/72). ZALATORIS ON SWITCHING TO HIS T150 IRONS, T350 3 IRON “I switched to the T150’s right when I got them, or I guess it was earlier this year. The thing that was so fascinating with the T150’s was that you had more feel than any Titleist iron that we had ever made, but you still had the same forgiveness. And so, when I first tried them, shocker, professional golfers don't hit perfect golf shots all day long, but I would hit one barely on the heel, barely on the toe. And I'm thinking, ‘Oh, I must've lost seven, eight yards on that.’ And it was going the same distance as when I hit it solid. And so, getting that feedback was amazing for me.” “The two biggest things that I always check for with irons is how do they perform out of the rough. Because if I've got a little too much camber out of there, I might catch flyers all day long, which I know it's cool to hit a pitching wedge 190 yards, but it's not cool when you're trying to hit it 150. And then on top of that – I told this to J.J. [Van Wezenbeeck, Titleist Director of Player Promotions] when he first gave them to me – it looked like they were built for me. Just because how they go through the turf, they rip through the turf way faster than the T100's that I was playing before. But I had more forgiveness and more feel, which is a unicorn. And so I've loved that [T150] iron.” “I actually play the T350 in my 3-iron. That iron was built to be kind of a game improvement iron. And honestly, we were on the range when all of us were together in LA testing it, and we were just kind of goofing around. And I was thinking, ‘Man, this thing looks awesome.’ And so, I started hitting some balls out of the rough, started hitting them out of the fairway. I remember Max [Homa] and I spent 20 minutes with this thing, and we were like, ‘This thing is awesome.’ So the wide variety too is something that I think is really cool. Because you're seeing guys that were playing straight muscle backs going to the T100’s. You've seen guys maybe go from T100’s to T150’s, and there's a lot of kind of shuffling going around. It's like, ‘Yeah, I have a game improvement iron in my bag.’ So what. I love that thing. It's my favorite club in the bag. But a lot of the changes that they made this year, especially with the feel, was really fascinating to me.” PGA TOUR CHAMPIONS | Chubb Classic Stephen Ames (Pro V1) earned his seventh career PGA Tour Champions victory, posting 13 under to win by three. Ames, who won four times in 2023, made 14 birdies on his way to carding rounds of 67-64 to claim the 36-hole weather-shortened event. He hit over 80% of his greens in regulation (29/36) and ranked 1st in Scrambling, getting his Pro V1 up and down on six of seven attempts. ASIAN TOUR | IRS Prima Malaysian Open David Puig (Pro V1) shot matching 62’s over the weekend to claim his second Asian Tour victory in four months. Puig, 22, entered the third round eight strokes off the lead before carding 18 birdies to zero bogeys over his final 36 holes. He finished at 23 under par for the tournament to earn a two-shot margin of victory and a spot in the 2024 Open Championship field at Royal Troon. This week in Malaysia, 70% of the field played a Titleist golf ball — nearly six times the nearest competitor — including nine of the 12 players who finished inside the top 10 and ties.

PGA TOUR | WM Phoenix Open After opening the week with a course-record 60, Nick Taylor (Pro V1x) made three consecutive birdies with the tournament on the line Sunday to win his fourth PGA TOUR title. Each of those birdies came on TPC Scottsdale’s par-4 18th. The first one, Taylor’s 72nd hole, forced an all- Pro V1x golf ball playoff with Titleist Brand Ambassador Charley Hoffman at 21 under. Both players birdied the playoff opener, setting up Taylor’s clinching birdie on the second extra hole. Taylor, who draws a blue line on his Pro V1x to help with alignment on his putts, rolled it in from 11 feet, 5 inches for the win. Including the playoff, Taylor’s Pro V1x golf ball found the bottom of the cup for 26 birdies. Eleven of those came during his bogey-free first round, which he played in 29-31. Taylor was in complete control of his Pro V1x throughout the week in Scottsdale, gaining more than five shots on the field on approach shots (+5.114/9th), while getting up-and-down on 12 of 13 attempts (92.31%), including a perfect 2-for-2 on sand saves. He hit 61 greens in regulation, ranking T2 for the event. SIX WINS IN A ROW FOR TITLEIST GOLF BALL PLAYERS TO START 2024 SEASON Titleist golf ball players have won every event to start the 2024 PGA TOUR season, with three wins each apiece for Pro V1 and Pro V1x : The Sentry: Pro V1x player Sony Open: Grayson Murray (Pro V1) The American Express: Pro V1 player Farmers Insurance Open: Matthieu Pavon (Pro V1) AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am: Wyndham Clark (Pro V1x) WM Phoenix Open: Nick Taylor (Pro V1x) This week, Taylor also topped a leader board that featured four Titleist golf ball players in the final top 5: 1. Nick Taylor (Pro V1x) 2. Charley Hoffman (Pro V1x) T3. 2022 Masters Champion (Pro V1) 5. Sahith Theegala (Pro V1) Over the last six weeks on the PGA TOUR, a total of 507 players have teed up a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball, more than five times the nearest competitor (95). WHY NICK TAYLOR PLAYS PRO V1 x “The windows, we talk about flight windows, but also spin windows. Like any golfer, you want predictability not only your good shots, but your slight miss hits and misses. So the windows of my spin are super tight and like I said, the flight windows that you want – the low ones, if it's a knockdown shot or into the wind, the high ones with certain shots you might need to get to a pin or not – when I look up, I see in the window that I’ve imagined when I was trying to hit it, so that's super important.” “I have so much confidence in the Titleist golf ball, I am not really ever questioning it. When you’re in trouble and you have to hit through a 3 foot by 3 foot circle in a tree, that's when you have the confidence in the back of your mind that, you know, I envision this with a 7 iron and you think it's going to come out of that window – that's telling in itself right there. It's nice to have the windows, when you're on a tee box with nothing in the way, but when you get in trouble, which we do on occasion, it’s important to have that confidence.” “To me (with Pro V1x) it's a soft but clicky feel. It's obviously two opposites there, but it gives me the variety of clickiness with the wedges that I feel like it's getting the spin, but also with the really short shots I have the soft feel. And then with the irons and the woods, obviously it comes off kind of somewhere in the middle there. So the feel is important. It gives you confidence when it comes off the face, kind of again, the feel that you want.” HOW NICK TAYLOR MARKS HIS PRO V1 x “I've always used blue for a long time. I'll change up occasionally, but I put a C and an H by the numbers on both sides. C is for Charlie, it's my son and Harper's my daughter. My daughter's 9 months old, so I had just a C for four years. I used to do a circle abbreviated to a C when my son was born and then did the C-H when she was born in May.” “I use this to line up on 99 percent of my putts. I've used this line on really any putt from distance, 3 feet all the way up to 72 feet like the Canadian Open. Again, it gives me a general area of where I'm trying to aim, gets me tighter and it gets me just focused on speed. I feel like once I have the line down, I’m not really considered or worried about where I'm aiming, so I use a line in all putts.” What’s in the Bag? | Charley Hoffman Golf Ball: Titleist Pro V1x Driver: TSR2 8.0° | Tensei 1K Pro Orange 50 TX Fairway Metal: TSR2+ 14.5° | Tensei CK Pro Orange 80 TX and TSR3 18.0° | Tensei CK Pro Orange 80 TX Hybrid: 913Hd 20.0° | Motore Speeder HB 9.8 Tour Spec X Irons: NEW T100 5-9 | NS Pro Modus3 Tour 105 X Wedges: NEW Vokey Design SM10 46.10F, 50.12F, 56.14F, WedgeWorks 60L | NS Pro Modus3 Tour 105 X (46, 52); NS Pro Modus3 125 Wedge (56); Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 (60) Putter: Scotty Cameron Phantom X 8 tour prototype KORN FERRY TOUR | Astara Golf Championship Kevin Velo (Pro V1) made three straight birdies to close out his first career Korn Ferry Tour victory in extra holes. Velo, 26, birdied the par-4 17th and par-5 18th to post 22 under and force a sudden-death playoff with Brian Campbell (Pro V1x) . One more birdie down the 18th gave Velo the win in his 30th career KFT start. For the week in Bogota, Velo carded four sub-67 rounds (64-67-64-66) and made 25 birdies (T2 in the field). Velo and Campbell’s 72-hole scores of 261 (22 under) apiece set the new tournament scoring record. After prevailing in the playoff, Velo is projected to jump 47 spots to No. 2 in the Korn Ferry Points List. CRISTOBAL DEL SOLAR SHOOTS LOWEST ROUND IN PGA TOUR-SANCTIONED HISTORY Cristobal Del Solar tapped in his Pro V1x for par and a 13-under 57 in Round 1, making history by carding the lowest round ever in a PGA TOUR-sanctioned event. Del Solar made six birdies in his first eight holes before making an eagle on No. 9 to go out in 27. He added three more birdies and an eagle on his way in to finish off the historic round. Del Solar began the 2023 Korn Ferry Tour season playing a competitive golf ball brand. In late May at the AdventHealth Championship, Del Solar made a mid-season move to Titleist, switching to a Pro V1x Left Dash . Two months later, Del Solar worked with Jeff Beyers of Titleist Golf Ball R&D , looking for more spin at the bottom end of his bag. He moved to 2023 Pro V1x at the Price Cutter Championship and went on to record his then-best finish on the Korn Ferry Tour – a solo 5th at the NV5 Invitational – in his next start. “Cristobal really liked Left Dash but we thought he could benefit from a little bit more spin with his short irons and wedges,” Beyers said. “He tried 2023 Pro V1x and it was a pretty easy change for him. The numbers were great. He played really well, made a late season push to get his TOUR card and now he’s off to a great start this year.” 2023 Pro V1x is engineered with a high gradient dual core design that delivers lower long game spin for increased distance and a more consistent flight – helping golfers hit the ball longer and straighter while maintaining the Drop-and-Stop greenside control that Pro V1x players rely on to play their best. POTGIETER BECOMES YOUNGEST PLAYER TO SHOOT 59 Titleist Brand Ambassador A ldrich Potgieter became the youngest player to break 60 in a PGA TOUR-sanctioned event after carding a 59 in Round 2. Potgieter, 19, birdied his final three holes (Nos. 7-9 at Country Club de Bogota – Pacos) to post 11 under on his Friday round. He ended the day with 10 birdies and an eagle. Just two weeks ago, Potgieter became the youngest champion in Korn Ferry Tour history, as he claimed the Bahamas Great Abaco Classic.

One of the best shots I have hit with my 9-iron. Felt perfect from the start. The hole was a bit uphill, 151 from the white, played it like 140. Shot landed a little left at the start and trickled down to the right. My friends started rushing me to get to the cart saying that it was in, but I thought I put it right behind the hole a bit for a good birdie try. We drove up and saw nothing on the green, so I jumped out of the moving cart to go check. Saw my Pro V1 with the green line peeking back up at me from the bottom of the hole and lost it.

I have been playing golf now for over 40 years. When I first started playing, I played with a mix of “hand me down” clubs and would occasionally play a Titleist ball if I found one in the woods or creeks. As I got older and became more financially secure, I started playing the Titleist ball (pre Pro V1 days), I found it to be superior. I then started playing mostly Titleist clubs. Even if I hit different branded clubs in my search for “perfection”, I found myself coming back to Titleist clubs. Recently I was custom fitted for clubs, despite testing other brands, the Titleist clubs had the best feel and performance so I bought them. These qualities transferred from the fitting studio to the course! I now have a full bag of Titleist clubs and play only the ProV1. I am playing the best golf of my life. Thank you Titleist for your quality and consistency over the years. I always came back to Titleist and now I will never stray again.

Hi All I play the T200 w/AMT black R300s. They work well. My question is in regards to trackman data. I play the Pro v1 and been working on my swing immensely this winter I swing the 8 iron 73-75 mph and my question pertains to spin data. I hit down on the ball no problems and max spin I can get with a 8 iron is 5390 or thereabouts. I believe my spin should be higher. I have contemplated trying a V1x however I cannot get on with hard balls... Is spin mostly affected by the shaft? I plan to get fit in the spring. I am going through practice/lessons and working on a more effective in to out swing path Thanks www.titleist.com/.../xlxwo88ehr2q5ib6i1v7 www.titleist.com/.../evbrotmumrp8f7ewae8h

PGA TOUR | Pebble Beach Pro-Am Titleist Brand Ambassador Wyndham Clark broke the course record by two shots Saturday at Pebble Beach Golf Links, tapping his Pro V1x in for birdie on the 18th hole for a 12-under 60 – and an eventual one-shot victory following the final round’s cancellation due to weather. The reigning U.S. Open champion, gaming a TSR3 driver, 620 CB irons and NEW Vokey Design SM10 wedges, played the front nine in 28 with a pair of eagles and four birdies. He added five more birdies (to just one bogey) on the back, coming up just inches short of 59 or lower with tap-in pars on Nos. 16 and 17 and his two-putt birdie on 18. Clark, who led a 1-2-3 finish for Titleist golf ball players, hit 16 of 18 greens on the day at Pebble, while gaining more than three strokes on the field on approach shots (+3.088/3rd). Titleist Brand Ambassador Ludvig Åberg (Pro V1x) finished one behind Clark, while last week’s champion, Matthieu Pavon (Pro V1) , was another shot back in third.

CLARK ON HIS PRO V1 x GOLF BALL “Honestly, one of the most important things in a player’s bag is the golf ball. If you don’t have control of that, then it doesn’t matter how you’re swinging, how the clubs are made, whatever. The golf ball is so important, and that’s ultimately what goes into the hole. Having faith and trusting your golf ball is huge.” “I play [Pro V1x] because it’s kind of the perfect combination for me of launch and spin. … I'm a low spin player, I have a lot of speed, but I don't spin the ball very much. And the Pro V1x, especially with my irons and driver, spins at the numbers that I want. Also, I think it's great around the greens. So I’ve always been looking for spin. And this Pro V1x gives me exactly what I need.” “The spin means the most to me, because I’m a low spin player, so I need the spin to help keep the ball in the air, to be able to control it better around the greens. And that's the most important thing for me. And especially out on Tour, you need to be able to have the ball to stop very quick, and that's what this ball does.” “What’s unique in our game is you can get the ball and your equipment dialed into the exact thing that you need. And with Titleist having different [models], I was able to find one that with my irons, spun perfectly, and with my driver, spun perfectly. And around the greens, I was able to stop it quick and do everything I wanted with it.” NOW WORLD NO. 10, CLARK CONTINUES RISE AFTER SWITCH TO TITLEIST EQUIPMENT; MOVES TO TSR3 DRIVER AT PEBBLE BEACH Clark made his first PGA TOUR start of 2022 (The American Express) with a brand new bag of Titleist equipment , having played competitive clubs through his last event of ‘21 (RSM Classic). Over that offseason, Clark visited the Titleist Performance Institute to get dialed in to his new setup. In January of ‘22, when he teed off in the first round of the AmEx, Clark was ranked 249th in the Official World Ranking. Forty-six starts later, following his U.S. Open victory at The Los Angeles Country Club, Clark had climbed to No. 13. He was 10th, his highest position ever, when he teed it up Thursday at Pebble. One of the more impactful changes has been his driver. Playing a competitive model, Clark ended the 2020-21 season at 117th in Strokes Gained: Off the Tee, finishing with a negative strokes gained total (-.015). After making the switch to Titleist TSi3, he finished the following season 61 spots higher and gaining strokes off the tee (+.209). “I use this driver because it’s so consistent. My misses are incredible and that’s big for me...,” he said. “When you miss with the Titleist it stays within the parameters that I need to play good golf. And that’s ultimately why I use Titleist clubs, especially this driver.” This week at Pebble Beach, Clark made the move to a new TSR3 driver model. Clark had experienced immediate speed gains with TSR during his initial testing sessions last year, but was hesitant to make any changes following his breakout summer. On Tuesday at Pebble, Clark worked with J.J. Van Wezenbeeck, Titleist’s Director of Player Promotions , to dial in his TSR3. According to Van Wezenbeeck, Clark’s swing has evolved in recent years to become much more neutral, allowing for a more neutral setup in his driver. The result – TSR3 9.0°, Project X HZRDUS Smoke Green 60 6.5 shaft, D1 SureFit setting (-.75* loft, standard lie), +4g SureFit CG weight (12g) in N (neutral) – delivered a better spin-to-launch ratio with faster ball speeds. Titleist continues to be the most played driver on the PGA TOUR for five seasons and counting. This week, 30 players (39%) chose a Titleist driver compared to 17 (21%) for the nearest competitor. CLARK BRINGS NEW SM10 WEDGES TO WINNER’S CIRCLE Wyndham Clark gamed four NEW Vokey SM10 wedges (46.10F, 52.08F, 56.10S, WedgeWorks 60A [@ 59]) en route to earning his third PGA TOUR title in the last nine months. First debuting at The Sentry to start the year and officially launching on TOUR at the American Express, NEW Vokey SM10 wedges continue to be the top choice of the world’s best. This week at Pebble Beach, there was a total of 72 SM10 gap, sand and lob wedges (31%) in play, more than double the nearest competitor’s total number of wedges (35). At The Sentry, Clark was one of 20 players to start his 2024 PGA TOUR season by making the immediate move to NEW Vokey Design SM10 wedges, putting three in play (46.10F, 52.08F, 56.10S). He added his SM10 WedgeWorks 60A (@ 59) lob wedge in his next start at the American Express. Clark first tested SM10 alongside Vokey Tour Rep Aaron Dill in December before making the switch from his set of SM9’s. “With Vokey, what's so great is they use the tour staff, I feel like as their R&D department,” said Clark on working with the Vokey team. “And so when we hit shots, I mean we hit more than anybody and we know exactly how a ball should come off, how a wedge should react, et cetera. And so what's nice is Vokey listens to that and says, ‘Okay, okay, we need to adjust this’ or ‘We need to add this, we need to decrease this’... So that's been so great with Vokey is just the ability to want to get better and improve even on a product, which I already think is the best, and if they're always improving, that's pretty amazing.” In his two rounds this week at Pebble Beach, Clark gained 1.359 shots around the greens on the field (14th). Clark also gamed four Vokey wedges (SM9 46.10F, 52.12F, 56.10S, WedgeWorks 60A) on his way to earning his first career major championship at the U.S. Open at the Los Angeles Country Club last June. Clark made several key up-and-downs coming down the stretch on Sunday to finish off a one-shot victory and etch his name into the history books. Clark gained nearly four shots (3.92/7th) on the field around LACC, while ranking first in proximity to the hole on shots around the green (5’9’’), more than 4 feet better than the field average (9'11"). “The most important club for me, probably in my bag, is this A grind,” said Clark in 2022, after making the move to Titleist clubs. “I use the SM9 60 degree A grind, which is a low bounce 60, which I think is very versatile. And I'm able to – on tight lies, rough, wet lies, firm lies, whatever it is – I can hit the shot I want. And with the amount of spin I want, trajectory and everything.” Said Vokey Rep Aaron Dill on Clark’s lob wedge: “The 60A was a co-design project with Geoff Ogilvy. That's how it started. It was based off of Australian Sand Belt golf courses – firm and tight. It's essentially an L grind with a ribbon removed, a smooth, fast moving wedge. It's a really low bounce, close sitting wedge, built for firm and fast conditions.” “One of the things that he really values is trajectory management, meaning he wants to launch it low. He’ll play it three-quarter shots, he’ll play it half shots, but mainly it’s kind of his greenside short game club that he’ll use a lot and it’s just become a good friend for him because he feels like he can slide into the ball easily when things are cut tight on conditions.” Clark has stuck with the A grind through his move to SM10, playing the WedgeWorks 60A at 59 degrees of loft. In addition to his four Vokey wedges, Clark has played a full set of 620 CB irons since his move to Titleist clubs. In his last season playing competitive iron and wedge models (2020-21). Clark ranked 188th on TOUR in Strokes Gained: Approach (-0.640). He finished last season 29th (+0.436). ABERG’S IMPRESSIVE START CONTINUES Titleist Brand Ambassador Ludvig Åberg shot rounds of 68-65-67 to post 16 under and finish solo 2nd. Between his opening round at Spyglass Hill and his second and third rounds at Pebble Beach, Åberg made 14 birdies and two eagles while only dropping two shots. Dating back to the World Wide Technology Championship in November, Åberg has finished inside the top-10 in four of his last six PGA TOUR starts, including his victory at the RSM Classic to close out last season. In his 15 events as a PGA TOUR member, he’s made 14 cuts while earning one victory, six top-10 finishes and 10 top-25's.

I was playing a good round then I hit a solid 4 iron into the green. It went straight at the flag but we never found it. I was shocked and mad, I stormed off to the 8th hole, grabbed a new pro V1 threw it down. Then I just guessed the yardage and hit a perfect one. We saw it one hop and disappear but we couldn’t see the hole. We got up to the green and the ball was gone. After that we were so excited that we played like 4 more holes, I booked us 4 flights to Vegas and payed 2500 ish to play the Wynn golf course the next day. We didn’t have much time and only had one good travel bag so we all dumped our clubs out and put 60 clubs and no bags into the travel case. Shortly after, we went to Ross to get clothes for the bars because it was the only place open. After our odd choice of clothes, we get to the airport late carrying a 120 pound travel bag with no other luggage. To only see that we accidentally went to the wrong airport. We tried to pay a guy to drive us to Vegas that we met at in n out burger, google every private jet or helicopter service we could but nothing was working out since it was 11 at night. Eventually we gave up and lost all the money we spend on the hotels, flights and tee times.

PGA TOUR | Farmers Insurance Open Playing a Pro V1 golf ball, Matthieu Pavon claimed his first PGA TOUR victory with a clutch birdie on the par-5 18th at Torrey Pines’ South Course. From a difficult lie in the left rough, 147 yards to the water-guarded green, the 31-year-old Frenchman stuck his Pro V1 to 7 feet, 8 inches. He rolled in the birdie putt to post a closing 3-under 69 and win by one shot. “That ball came out like a butterfly and it really feed the slope on the green and left myself a nine-footer or something. That was the right time to prove I have the guts to finish that tournament and I did it so I'm so happy about that last hole,” he said. Over the 72 holes, Pavon gained more than five strokes on approach shots (+5.398/3rd) and got up and down 15 times (71%/8th) while making a total of 21 birdies (3rd). This week marked Pavon’s 11th career PGA TOUR start and just his third as a PGA TOUR member. He finished eighth in last year’s Race to Dubai Rankings on the DP World Tour to earn his PGA TOUR card. WHY PAVON PLAYS PRO V1 www.instagram.com/.../ A longtime Titleist golf ball player, Matthieu Pavon says his game is best suited for the flatter, mid flight trajectory he gets with Pro V1 , as compared to the higher-flying Pro V1x . He says Pro V1 generates the perfect amount of spin off the driver, he loves his ability to control trajectory and flight shots, and he describes it as “powerful” into the wind. He also prefers the softer feel of Pro V1 on shots around the green. “This is the one that suits me the best,” he said. FOUR IN A ROW FOR PRO V1 & PRO V1 x PLAYERS TO START 2024 Titleist golf ball players have now won each of the first four events to start the 2024 PGA TOUR season: The Sentry: Pro V1x player Sony Open: Grayson Murray (Pro V1) The American Express: Pro V1 player Farmers Insurance Open: Matthieu Pavon (Pro V1) Over the last four weeks on the PGA TOUR, a total of 361 players have teed up a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball, more than five times the nearest competitor (63).

Potgieter trusted his Pro V1x golf ball and full bag of Titleist equipment to make seven birdies and an eagle during Wednesday’s final round. Windy conditions at The Abaco Club proved difficult for scoring, and Potgieter managed his game to finish as the only player to post double digits under par (10 under) for the week. “I wouldn't say I'm used to the wind, but I guess I’ve played a lot in the wind and I’ve got some experience down,” said Potgieter. “I think just a bit conservative, but you have to be aggressive. It’s a bit of both combination. You kind of have to take all of that in and take the best option you’ve got and still be aggressive because you still need birdies to be able to win the event.” Potgieter’s win makes it two in a row for Titleist golf ball players to start the 2024 Korn Ferry Tour season.

LPGA TOUR | Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions Longtime Titleist golf ball player Lydia Ko opened the 2024 season with a decisive victory against the LPGA’s best, posting a final-round 70 to close out a two-shot victory. In full control of her Pro V1x+ prototype golf ball, Ko took control of the tournament with bogey-free rounds on Friday and Saturday, playing those 36 holes in 9 under while hitting 32 greens in regulation (89%). It marked the 20th LPGA title for Ko, who is now 1 point away from the LPGA's Hall of Fame qualification. KO’S RUN CONTINUES WITH PRO V1 x+ Last August, Lydia Ko made the move to the prototype Pro V1x+ golf ball, putting the model in play for the first time at the Portland Classic following some work with Titleist Golf Ball R&D rep Jeff Beyers . According to Beyers, Ko liked the added spin with her short irons and wedges she saw while testing Pro V1x+. While the vast majority of Titleist golf balls in play across the worldwide professional tours are either a Pro V1 or Pro V1x, some players choose to play custom performance options (CPO’s) – such as Pro V1x Left Dash, Pro V1 Left Dot and Pro V1x+. These CPO’s are designed to fit players with very unique launch conditions as well as evaluate forward looking technologies. Ko has played the ball ever since, and is a cumulative 60 under in those last eight events, including this week’s victory. In addition, her team won the Grant Thorton Invitational in December. “I’ve used the Titleist ball for a really long time and I can speak from my experience that every time I’ve tried something new I’ve been able to see a difference, and I just love how it is the #1 golf ball,” Ko said. “It’s not just an advertisement. It is something that I believe and something that I really trust. The golf ball is such a crucial part of the equipment standpoint and in the game.” PANO FINISHES RUNNER-UP IN FIRST WEEK WITH NEW T100 IRONS, SM10 WEDGES Titleist Brand Ambassador Alexa Pano began her sophomore season on the LPGA Tour with a solo second-place finish, birdieing three of her final five holes to post 12 under and finish two back of Lydia Ko .

Pano, who finished the week 1st in Birdies (19), added a set of NEW T100 5-9 irons along with four NEW Vokey Design SM10 wedges (46.10F, 50.12F, 54.14F, 58.12D) over the offseason.

If I want to stick something, I can do that. If I want to get the rollout, I can still do that, and [Pro V1] just kind of gives me the freedom to play golf. I know my golf ball is going to do what I need it to.” “I think before I turned pro, I definitely tested a few different balls and just nothing has the consistency that a Pro V does for me. Trying to get those different ball flights, whether it’s lower with my wedges or going high, but you still, when you’re hitting it high, you still want to see a bit of a drive to it. You don't just want to see it floating. And that's really the main reason I've always stuck with the Pro V1.” “I'm a massive feel player. Almost everything I do is feel. I’m not super big on the technological side, and [Pro V1] has always just had a great feel for me. I love the way that it comes off the club. I love the way that I see it react on the greens and yeah, I have a really good feel with this.” PANO ON HER TSR3 DRIVER “This is one of my favorite clubs in my bag. The TSR has been pretty game changing for me... Getting my driver to be a massive asset for me versus something that I was trying to control. It’s given me some strokes gained and yeah, I love it. I really love the look of this driver... the face angles on all my clubs for me are one of the biggest thing, being a big feel player, a visual is big for me. And just looking down at this, I love the way it sits on the ground and makes me feel before every drive that I hit.” PANO ON HER NEW T100 IRONS “I’ve just recently, this offseason, switched into the new T100. I went out to visit Chloe [Robinson, Titleist Technical Player Relations Representative] in California and she helped me get fit for these.” “Feel is probably the biggest part of my golf game. I think feeling the club through the turf is massive for me.... I really like these irons specifically because they pierce the ground really well.” “A good feeling [at impact] is important, but also the visual aspect of seeing kind of the thinner [topline] goes hand-in-hand with my feel. If I feel good over a club, looking down at the face angle, it really shows when I swing. Face angle is massive for me in every club in the bag. PANO ON TESTING HER SM10 WEDGES “Love the look of them, which is no surprise. I always love the look of a Vokey, but they feel super good so far. ... I think my favorite part about hitting [SM10] was hitting some of those full pitching wedges on the range. I do like to play kind of a right-to-left ball flight and when you start trying to get it up to its furthest distance is when you can see the turn kind of get to its maximum. And seeing a little bit more control [with SM10] was somethingthat’sreally big for me.” PANO ON HER PHANTOM X 5.5 PUTTER “I got this putter last offseason when I went up for a visit at the Scotty Cameron studio and Paul [Vizanko] wanted to fit me for a mallet, even though I’ve always been kind of a blade putter most of my life. And I was set on using one of the two blades that we got fit for that day, but he made me take this. He’s like, ‘you never know what’s going to happen.’ And I was really struggling with my putting the first half of this year. It was just not solid, not consistent at all. I was losing a lot of shots. So finally,just kind of got to a point where I was like, alright, we need to switch something up. So I switched over to this mallet and it’s the reason I’m a winner on the LPGA tour now. It’s been such a massive help. I jumped up so high in the putting ranks. I was really low at some point this year and it’s given me a lot of confidence around the greens. And now it’sprobably my favorite club in the bag.” www.youtube.com/watch PGA TOUR | The American Express Making PGA TOUR history, the 20-year-old amateur champion of The American Express trusted his Pro V1 golf ball to shoot 29 under par in the desert and win by one shot. The champion made two birdies over his final four holes Sunday at PGA West’s Stadium Course to post a closing 2-under 70, getting his Pro V1 up and down for par from just over 78 feet on the par-4 18th to etch his name in the history books. The college sophomore has played the 2023 Pro V1 model since the start of his freshman season, winning his first collegiate tournament last March before making a summer run that included victories at the Northeast Amateur, North & South Amateur and the U.S. Amateur Championship. On Saturday at La Quinta Country Club, he tied the lowest round by an amateur in PGA Tour history, shooting a 12-under 60 to take a three-shot lead into the final round. PRO V1 & PRO V1 x : THREE IN A ROW TO START 2024 With Sunday’s victory at The American Express, Titleist golf ball players have now won each of the first three events to start the 2024 PGA TOUR season. Grayson Murray won last week’s Sony Open in a playoff with his Pro V1 , while the winner of The Sentry played Pro V1x . Over the last three weeks on the PGA TOUR, a total of 252 players have teed up a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball, more than five times the nearest competitor (44). JUSTIN THOMAS MOVES TO 2023 PRO V1 x Following extensive off-season testing, longtime Pro V1x player Justin Thomas made the move to the 2023 Pro V1x from the prior generation model, teeing it up in competition for the first time at the 2023 Hero World Challenge. Said Thomas: “All of us want consistency. Whether the wind be down, left-to-right, right-to-left, into. If I'm hitting my numbers, I want [the golf ball] to time and time again be able to have that consistent spin, trajectory, to where I’m not missing numbers by four and five [yards] with what I felt like was a good swing. And I felt like Bahamas was a great time to test it. And yeah, it was awesome.” “I had a couple of irons into the wind that I could tell [the difference between models]. Some 7 irons that I felt were ‘you know, I’m not sure I can quite get this there, but I just got to put a good solid swing on it.’ And just how [the shots] maintained the trajectory and they weren’t ballooning – but with the land angle, now they’re still going to be coming down soft enough when the greens are firm. There was a couple of times there in that first round where the wind would pick up, and I felt like I was able to either hold it against winds or keep it flighted into the wind that I had felt good about the change.” Thomas posted 16 under for the week in the Bahamas, good for a solo 3rd finish. When he arrived to PGA West this week to make his first PGA TOUR start of the 2024 season, ‘23 Pro V1x remained in the bag. “I texted Fordie [Pitts, Director of Tour Research and Validation for Titleist Golf Ball R&D], I said, ‘Well, I think we have a winner 23X,’ ” Thomas said. "Yeah, it checked all the boxes, and I was very pleased.” In his 2024 season debut at the Amex, Thomas posted four rounds of 68 or better to finish T3 at 27 under. On Saturday, he posted a course record-tying 11-under 61, in which he gained over three shots (+3.153) with his approach play and was a perfect 5-for-5 in scrambling around PGA West’s Stadium Course. VOKEY SM10 IS MOST PLAYED WEDGE AT AMERICAN EXPRESS The tour launch of the NEW Vokey Design SM10 wedges continued this week at the American Express, with Vokey Tour Rep Aaron Dill on site and back behind his grinding wheel on the Titleist Tour Truck. When players teed off on Thursday, there were 251 Vokey Design gap, sand and lob wedges in play, more than all other brands combined (55%): SM10 was the most played wedge model, with 135 gap, sand and lob wedges in play (29%), more than double the nearest competitor. Thirty-nine players put at least one new Vokey SM10 wedge in the bag for the first time, and four of the players finishing inside the top-10 gamed at least one SM10 wedge, including Justin Thomas (46.10F, 52.12F, 56.14F, 60.04T), the 2020 Men’s Olympic Gold Medalist (56.10S, WedgeWorks 60.06K) and the 2023 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play champ (56.14F, 60.04T). More than 100 players on the PGA TOUR and DP World Tour that have already played new SM10’s in competition since the new models first appeared at The Sentry.

PGA TOUR | Sony Open in Hawaii Grayson Murray returned to the PGA TOUR winner’s circle Sunday in Honolulu, rolling his Pro V1 golf ball in for two clutch birdies on Waialae’s 18th hole. On the 72nd hole, Murray pitched his Pro V1 to less than 3 feet for a tap-in birdie to earn his way into the three-man playoff. He was the only player to make birdie on the first extra hole, as his Pro V1 found the bottom of the cup from 38 ft, 7 inches. It was a bogey-free weekend for Murray, who finished at 17 under after rounds of 69-63-64-67, making just one bogey over his final 67 holes. For the week, he finished 2nd in Greens in Regulation (58/73, 79%) and T5 in Scrambling, getting his Pro V1 up-and-down 12 of 15 attempts (80%).

Reengineered from Core to Cover for Longer Distance, More Greenside Control, Softer Feel The new Titleist AVX golf ball has been reengineered from core to cover to increase performance on every shot, delivering longer distance tee to green, more greenside spin and control and even softer feel . Available in golf shops from February 3, the new AVX builds upon its unique combination of exceptional distance and extraordinary feel through advancements to every layer of the golf ball: New high gradient, high speed core delivers longer tee-to-green distance and exceptionally soft feel. New thin, high-flex casing layer provides lower spin on long game shots. New 346 quadrilateral dipyramid catenary dimple design allows for a more piercing ball flight. New softer urethane cover delivers softer feel and more greenside spin for excellent short game control. Relative to Pro V1, Pro V1x and Pro V1x Left Dash, the new AVX maintains its positioning as the lower flying, lower spinning and softer feeling performance option. “When we ask golfers why they play AVX, the answer is usually distance and feel,” said Jeremy Stone , Vice President, Titleist Golf Ball Marketing. “When we ask them what they want more of, the answer is usually greenside spin. New AVX is unique because not only were we able to give golfers more spin and control around the greens, but we were also able to improve on AVX’s strengths. Golfers are going to find the new AVX is a better golf ball across all performance attributes while still staying true to its original long and soft identity in the Titleist lineup.” AVX PERFORMANCE & TECHNOLOGY www.youtube.com/watch HIGH GRADIENT, HIGH SPEED CORE: The next generation AVX features a new high gradient, high speed core which provides longer distance from tee to green along with exceptionally soft feel. This is the same high gradient core technology found in Pro V1 and Pro V1x, which helps reduce long game spin without sacrificing greenside spin and control. “When we talk about the gradient of the core, we're talking about stiffness as it radiates from the center of the core to the outermost layers of that core,” said Mike Madson , Vice President, Titleist Golf Ball R&D. “With AVX’s core reformulated for a higher gradient, we’re able to give golfers more of that low spin and long distance with their long irons and hybrids, which is hugely important to the AVX player.” HIGH-FLEX CASING LAYER, SOFTER URETHANE COVER: Over the top of AVX’s high gradient core, a new thin, high-flex casing layer reduces excess spin in the long game, while a new softer urethane cover designed for AVX delivers increased spin and stopping power with the scoring clubs. Interactions between the core, casing layer and cover give Titleist engineers the ability to manage spin numbers optimally throughout the bag. “With three-piece construction golf balls, one of the real benefits is the hard-over-soft and soft-over-hard relationships which allow us to control spin in various aspects of the game,” Madson said. “For example, when there is a very high-speed impact condition, the cover is going to play less of a role during that collision. Most of what is interacting with the club face is that stiff casing layer and that soft core, which is a hard-over-soft relationship. When you have hard-over-soft, it drives spin down. Conversely, on shots around the green, the impact with a wedge is a lower speed collision or more of a glancing blow where the interaction is primarily between the cover and the casing layer. When you have that soft cover over that stiff casing layer, that soft-over-hard relationship drives spin up. This helps give AVX golfers the distance they enjoy at the top end of their bags as well as the greenside spin they seek with their wedges.” OPTIMISED AERODYNAMICS: Every Titleist golf ball model has a unique aerodynamics package designed to complement its individual construction and flight window while optimizing distance. A new 346 quad dipyramid catenary dimple design provides the new AVX with a piercing trajectory and helps golfers hit their preferred low flight window. This also helps maintain AVX’s separation between Pro V1 as the lowest-flying urethane offering in the Titleist golf ball family. AVAILABILITY New AVX golf balls will be offered in both white and high optic yellow. They will be available in golf shops worldwide on January 24, 2024 for $49.99 GOLF BALL FITTING AND EDUCATION Pro V1 , Pro V1x , Pro V1x Left Dash and AVX are differentiated based upon flight, spin, and feel characteristics. Compared to Pro V1, AVX flies lower, spins less, and feels softer. Golfers are encouraged to get fit for and select the Titleist golf ball model that best suits their flight, spin and feel needs.

Brian Harman | Pro V1 T5. J.T. Poston | Pro V1x T5. 2022 Masters champion | Pro V1 VOKEY SM10 WEDGES MAKE TOUR DEBUT AT KAPALUA The NEW Vokey Design SM10 wedges made their PGA TOUR debut this week at The Sentry – as the field’s most played wedge. A total of 59 SM10 wedges were immediately put into play at Kapalua (25.8% of all wedges), more than any other brand’s total number of wedges: Twenty players put at least one Vokey SM10 wedge in the bag this week – including Max Homa and Jordan Spieth , who each arrived to Maui with four new SM10’s, having left their SM9’s at home. With new four new SM10’s in the bag, Byeong Hun An gained more than three shots on the field around the green (+3.066), on his way to a third-place finish. In total, Vokey was the most played wedge at Kapalua with 98 (57.6%) sand, gap and lob wedges in play. Titleist Brand Ambassadors with SM10 wedges in play: Ludvig Aberg : SM10 60.08M Byeong Hun An : SM10 48.10F, 52.08F, 56.08M, 60.04T Wyndham Clark : SM10 46.10F, 50.08F, 56.10S Cameron Davis : SM10 52.12F, 56.14F, WedgeWorks 60L Russell Henley : SM10 48.10F, 50.08F, 54.10S, 60.04T Lee Hodges : SM10 46.10F, 52.08F, 56.10S, WedgeWorks 60L Tom Hoge : SM10 46.10F, 52.08F, 56.08M, 60.04T Max Homa : SM10 46.10F, 50.12F, 56.14F, WedgeWorks 60L Tom Kim : SM10 46.10F, 52.12F Vincent Norrman : SM10 50.12F, 54.10S, WedgeWorks 60L J.T.

And then from there, I take them home – you know, you’ve got to hit them a bunch. We're working numbers, working flights, playing with them, building some trust with them, kind of keeping what he's working on in the back of our mind. And then when it all matches up, I feel pretty comfortable taking him out to a tour round.” “I flight my wedges really low. And then as I got to the gap wedge and the pitching wedge, I saw some more consistency in the flight, especially on the draw intent shots, just kind of holding a little straighter. That's always a benefit when we're looking at these left pins and trying to attack them.” “They're doing for me what they always do. I'm not having to think about any distractions as I'm getting ready to hit a shot. And then when you step back and look at it, you’re like, ‘Oh yeah, that shot became a little bit easier.’” MAX HOMA ON HIS MOVE TO SM10 “I needed to see trajectory. That’s number one. Especially with a 60, I like to launch it low, so I needed to see that it could still stay low without needing to feel like I had to hook it,” Homa said. “And then two, I like to play most, not all the time – but a lot of the time with my wedges, I like to play what I call it like a ‘pinch cut, ’ it just falls a little bit right, but it stays low, it has a lot of spin and it just falls a tickle right. That's what I’m always looking for when I’m hitting a new wedge. It's quite often that you go to hit a cut with a full swing lob wedge or sand wedge, and it balloons. So I like to see it flat and just fall a little, right. As long as I can hit that shot, I'm usually pretty happy.” “I think it’s just predictability (around the greens). I want to hit a shot and then it feels like, ‘hey, that should be a spinner.’ And then I look up and it's low and it’s skidding and spinning. It's OK to hit some that are bad and look up and be like, ‘Oh, that's ballooning.’ But I don’t want to hit one where I’m like, ‘Oh, that felt really good.’ And then you watch it chase across the green and come out kind of like a bowling ball as the kids say. So it’s really more just making sure that it’s doing what it feels like I caused it to do.” “Solid is always the word I say (to describe the feel of his Vokey wedges). Even when I remember I got these new ones, it just still feels, it feels like when you put the club on the ball, it cuts through the ground great. But I mean, the face stability for whatever reason, just feels strong. And I've always liked the look, everything about it to my eye looks good. And then when I hit them... there's no bad give. It’s not kicking all over the place. It feels very stable.” JORDAN SPIETH MAKES MOVE TO NEW T100 IRONS In just his second start with the NEW T100 irons, Jordan Spieth finished solo 3rd, making 30 birdies around the Kapalua Plantation Course. Spieth first put the new models (T100 4-9 irons, Project X 6.5) in play at the Hero World Challenge following extensive offseason testing. “Jordan is a precise iron player and very knowledgeable on all his launch, spin and speed numbers on a variety of shots,” said J.J. Van Wezenbeeck, Titleist’s Director of Player Promotions . “With everything going on in his personal life (the Spieths welcomed their second child in September) he didn’t have time to fully vet the new irons until late this fall. During early testing he loved the look and feel but wanted to give them a thorough testing to make sure all the different varieties of shape and flights hit his numbers. He has been very happy with them.” In addition to his new irons, Spieth was among the first players to put NEW Vokey SM10 wedges in play during the week of their launch on Tour. Spieth added four fresh SM10’s to the bag (46.10F, 52.08F, 56.10S, 60.04T) ahead of his arrival to Maui following work with Aaron Dill this offseason.

So back in September of this year, I had a business trip to Chicago and was supposed to be playing golf with some folks in the area, and the golf plans blew up at the last minute. So I checked with Sand Valley to see if they could accommodate a single, which they could, rented a car and drove up prior to the business stuff in Chicago. Had it all lined up to play Lido, Sand Valley, and Mammoth Dunes in a 2 day marathon. At Sand Valley, I got paired with a father and son twosome that I also happened to be paired with the following day at Mammoth Dunes. They were a great pairing. The dad was a good player, and the son was a relatively new golfer but decent for his time in the game. Fast forward to the 16th at Mammoth Dunes, which was the last round of the trip. The caddie gave us instructions to a semi blind 125 yd shot to fire at a specific tree with about a 120 carry as the ball would kick down to the hole. I hit a good shot, the dad hit a good shot, and the son hit one left of the specified tree that we could see kick directly to the hole. The caddie, nicknamed Palmer, said "we will have 3 nice birdie looks here" and started walking up to the green. As he approached the green he turned around and said "boys, there are only 2 balls on the green". After having seen what I did, I immediately started thinking about how cool it was that I was with them as a son made his first ace with his dad in the group. I got out my phone to get pics for them and walked up to the hole to see my Pro V1 in the bottom of the cup. I was speechless for several minutes and was in a haze mentally. I also ended up making birdie on 17 and 18 to finish level par for the day. My 3rd ace, but first in 23 years. Needless to say, I can't wait to go back to Sand Valley..... www.titleist.com/.../cfskcfwm2ezhxboicmev www.titleist.com/.../dva2shtoo7zbhpkqujdl www.titleist.com/.../if3lc2gcnz084sylga06

www.instagram.com/.../ From his first start as a PGA TOUR member at the Fortinet Championship all the way to his final start of 2023 at the RSM Classic, 2022-23 PGA TOUR Rookie of the Year Eric Cole trusted his Pro V1x golf ball on his way to putting together a debut PGA TOUR season to remember. Cole finished the 2022-23 season with seven top-10 finishes, including a runner-up at the Honda Classic. He ended 2023 with four top-5 finishes in his final five events and was the only rookie out of a group of 28 to finish in the top 50 of the FedEx Cup Standings. “I used to use to the Pro V1 last year on the Korn Ferry tour and about half way through the year I needed a little more spin, especially with my irons, so I switched to the Pro V1x,” said Cole. “And that helped me get the ball to stop a little faster on the greens, which is really important in professional golf, and especially on the PGA TOUR.” For the season, Cole ranked 1st in hole-outs, jarring his Pro V1x from off the green 28 times. He also ranked inside the top 20 in Strokes Gained: Around-the-Green and Strokes Gained: Approach-the-Green. “[Pro V1x is] just really consistent,” he said. “You know the quality you’re getting from Titleist and that’s a really important thing out here. The profile of it just fits me really well.” As the 2024 PGA TOUR Season gets underway at Kapalua, we caught up with Eric to gain some short game insight and hear more on how Pro V1x gives him the control he’s looking for around the greens. Congrats to Eric on a special rookie season!

September 14, 2023. 192 yards, Bear Mountain Valley course, 10th hole, Grizzly Tees. Club: 2i hybrid, Titleist, 18 degrees. Ball: Pro V1. Description: A long uphill par three. The green is wide, but pretty shallow front to back. Pin was in the middle of the green, centred right to left and middle depth. My intent was A) to get the ball to the hole and B) hit it out to the right a bit and draw it back towards the pin. Hit the shot super solid, but it was still drawing in the air when it got to the pin line - so it ended up being a little long and left of the flag. My shoulder slumped as I thought it was "a miss". Ball landed on the slope behind and left of the flag...one of the guys I was playing with said it was on the lower level, so I was thinking about how I would need to putt it close just to make my par...the ball landed soft, then released and rolled down slowly from where it landed, then rolled down a bit further through the fringe and then really started rolling hard to the right once it got onto the putting surface...and then just disappeared when it got to the pin... The two guys I was playing with both screamed "it went in!" and "hole in one!!" and then they absolutely mobbed me screaming and hugging me and jumping up and down...I was shocked (as I thought it was on 'the lower level'). Then when I finally shook them off there were many high fives coming at me...so I said "Let's get up there and see if it actually went in". Took a quick picture on the tee box. Finally, confirmed it was truly in the cup once we made it up to the green. Bought shots of Crown Royal for my group and got a buncha high fives from the ladies piloting the beverage cart on the next hole. *Proceeded to make a birdie on the following (11th) hole. That was my second hole in one. The other was at La Quinta, Dunes Course, 6th hole, Palm Springs, California. (Also a Pro V1.) Today while going through my golf stuff, I found the Titleist "Hole In One" Bag Tag from my first ace. There's something about golfing beside the Pacific... I may have to move to the West Coast. (Devil's Pulpit Golf Association + West Coast Aces Association: DPGA/WCAA). Happy New Year Titleist...couldn't have done it without ya! www.titleist.com/.../dq0onx7ktqv4utkfdpis www.titleist.com/.../djlirrfyfk2pyf6dlnav

Just one month after his breakout victory, he represented the European Ryder Cup team in Rome, contributing two points to his side’s winning effort. In total, the PGA TOUR rookie – who became the first player to earn his TOUR card directly out of college by finishing No. 1 in the PGA TOUR University Ranking – played 45 measured rounds over 11 PGA TOUR starts in which he earned eight top-25 finishes, four top-10s and one victory. He ended the season ranked 10th in Strokes Gained: Tee to Green (+1.507), while finishing at the top of multiple statistical categories, including: 1st in Birdie Average (4.76) 1st in Eagles - Holes Per (75) 1st in Ball Striking (4) 1st in Total Driving (33) 1st in Going for Green – Birdie or Better (72.81%) 2nd in Scoring Average - Actual (68.32) 2nd in Proximity to the Hole (33’ 4) 2nd in Strokes Gained: Off the Tee (+0.982) 3rd in Greens in Regulation (73.33%) 3rd in Bogey Avoidance (12.22%) With his win at the RSM Classic, he jumped from No. 53 to No. 32 in the official world golf ranking. From his pro debut in Canada, to his victories in Switzerland and Sea Island, to his Ryder Cup debut in Rome, Åberg has trusted his Pro V1x golf ball as well as his TSR2 driver and full set of T100 irons and Vokey SM9 wedges. ÅBERG ON HIS PRO V1 x www.instagram.com/.../ “I like to put spin on the ball. I like to hit it a little bit higher to have a little bit of a different angle coming into the firmer greens that we play here on the PGA TOUR. So I think the Pro V1x helps me with that and it helps me to be able to compete against the best players in the world.” “I just love the feel around the greens, putting, chipping, I love the softer feel (of 2023 Pro V1x), and it flights the way that I want to.” “What you want when you’re chipping is that little extra feeling of checking up on the green, and making sure that when the greens get a little firmer and faster, you’re still able to put that spin on it. Which I feel like [the Pro V1x] allows me to do. Chipping and short game is such feel-based – what you like to feel, what you don't like to feel. And this allows me to have that creative mindset.” “As a golfer and as a competitor, you always look for the perfect shot and the perfect execution. It's not always going to show up that way, but at least this golf ball allows you to have that consistency and that way I know exactly what it’s going to do when it reacts on the green, when it reacts in the air. This allows me to have my spin rate in a very consistent level, which allows me to score a bit better as well.” “The Titleist golf ball is the best golf ball there is. I’ve used it for a very long time, it’s something I trust and it’s something that I really enjoy using.” “I used to live in a small town. I would always go into the woods and look for [Pro V1’s]. And every time you found a new one, found a really nice one, that was like the best feeling. So I used to have a ball bag of all my Pro V1’s that I found. Every once in a while you got to go into the pro shop and get a new one, but it didn’t happen very often. So now we're super spoiled. We get new balls every now and then. So, it's really cool and I've played it for a very long time.” www.instagram.com/.../CuHZEnyu5G8

youtu.be/tkzoEGGtWDI&index=2 Hey, Team Titleist! Winter is just around the corner, but don't put your sticks away just yet! We wanted to get some advice on keeping your golf games sharp this offseason so we recently spent a day with Rico Riciputi, A PGA Professional and Titleist staff member who owns and operates Coach Club , a state-of-the-art indoor golf performance center in North Hampton, New Hampshire. In the video above, Rico talks about the benefits of working on your game indoors and he highlights three important areas of focus to keep you on-track as you look ahead to next season. Here are Rico's three keys for offseason training along with some practical ways to implement each into your practice regimen this winter. 1. Develop a Fundamentally Sound Swing Striking the ball consistently, where you want it to go, requires a reliable, repeatable golf swing. To build a more efficient swing, Rico suggests starting at the moment of truth, Impact , and examining three critical variables that launch monitors like TrackMan capture on every indoor shot – angle of attack, swing path and clubface angle. Angle of attack is the vertical direction of the club head as it moves through impact with the golf ball. On iron shots, angle of attack must be negative (descending through impact) in order to contact the ball with the sweet spot of the clubface. Rico told us that for a 7-iron, attack angle should fall between -2.5° and -4.5°. Many golfers struggle with this and mistakenly scoop upward in an attempt to get the ball airborne. This makes ball-first-then-turf contact very difficult, resulting in inconsistency. "When you're hitting balls off the ground, it's very, very important to strike the ball first, ground after," Rico said. "It's not only going to help with distance, but it's also going to help put proper spin on the golf ball. When you are not hitting down on the ball enough, you can really struggle when the lie is less than perfect. So, if the ball is sitting down in the fairway or it's sitting down in the rough, you'll have a hard time hitting the ball solid and in the air." With the driver, a positive angle of attack is usually beneficial, launching the ball higher off the tee and imparting less spin on the ball. This is the modern recipe for greater distance. Driver specs play a big role in this equation, of course, but many golfers hit down on tee shots, robbing themselves of easy distance by launching it too low and spinning the ball too aggressively to realize their full distance potential, given their swing speed with the driver. Swing Path and Face Angle - On a center-face strike, when the clubface is perfectly square (perpendicular) to the swing path, the ball will fly straight. When the clubface is oriented slightly to the left or right of the swing path, the result is a slight draw or fade. As this gap between path and face widens, the curve of the ball increases, producing bigger hooks and slices. When you work indoors with a launch monitor and start understanding this relationship, you can then make adjustments to alter the ball flight. Being able to control your face/path conditions is how to gain control over the direction and curve on all your shots. Everyone will have some variation in path from swing to swing. A positive number indicates an in-to-out path, meaning a right-handed golfer is swinging to the right of the target line. This path tends to promote a draw. "The majority of golfers that we see produce negative path numbers" Rico said. “This means that they are swinging over the top or out-to-in. For 80% of golfers, I'd recommend trying to swing a little bit more in-to-out. It's not only going to help the direction of your shots, but it's also going to help with more consistent contact." Whether you prefer a draw or fade shot shape, Rico added that a great goal is to keep your swing path within a three-degree range. Outside that range, your shot consistency will suffer greatly. 2. Implement Variable Training There are two types of practice in golf – block and variable (or random practice). In block practice, the club, the lie and the target remain constant. Shots are repeatedly hit in the same way to ingrain a new motor pattern, position, feel or to develop a new shot or technical skill. Block practice is highly effective in making a swing change, but too many golfers rely on it exclusively. As Rico told us, in order for improvements to translate onto the golf course, you must devote at least equal time to variable training. In variable practice, each shot is hit with a different club, with varying force and intention, to different targets. Variable practice mirrors the shot-to-shot variety we face during a round of golf. Indoors, Rico recommends mixing shots up in a range setting (changing club selection, targets, shot height and curve with each shot) as well as playing frequent simulator rounds on different course layouts. Indoor centers like Coach Club also have many engaging tools like TrackMan Combine, an assessment that evaluates your shot-making skills and assigns you a handicap to track your progress. Indoor league competition, par-3 and short game tournaments are also important, as they introduce a degree or pressure to practice. The more you can make practice feel like the on-course experience, the faster your improvements will start showing up where it matters – in the outdoor rounds that you play. 3. Dial in Your Equipment Winter is the perfect time for equipment maintenance. Installing new grips and checking your lofts and lies are simple measures you can take to make sure your clubs are in good working order. But indoor technology allows you to do much more. Rico explained: "If you're not seeing what you want in your ball flight, number one, let's check your mechanics to make sure you're swinging the club properly. But number two, we need to also look at your golf clubs and make sure that they're performing correctly, that you may have the right shafts, that you're optimizing distance with your driver, that you have the right wedge setup and that you have proper distance gaps throughout the set." To get an accurate read on club performance, you need precise, measured shot data. With the introduction of Titleist RCT golf ball technology , launch monitors are now able to capture true, measured spin rate – essential in order to generate accurate depictions of full ball flight. Without RCT, radar-based launch monitors must frequently estimate spin rate, which results in approximations of trajectory, carry distance, curve, etc. With RCT, there's no guessing. Indoor shot data is every bit as accurate as shot data collected outdoors, which means you can trust that what you're seeing on the indoor simulator screen is what you'll experience on the course, too. RCT has made it possible to now conduct indoor golf ball fittings. Rico had hosted two Titleist ball fitting events at Coach Club and told us that the golf ball is the best place to start when evaluating your golf equipment. RCT Pro V1, Pro V1x, Pro V1x Left Dash and AVX offer distinct differences in flight, spin and feel that can be seen clearly and instantly with comparison visualizations generated by the launch monitor software. Playing the right golf ball model for your game enhances every other improvement you make. RCT has also accelerated the development of the Vokey Wedge Fitting App , allowing you to find the perfect wedge setup for your short game. What this all means is that, indoors, you are now able to fine-tune, and have confidence in, every piece of equipment in your bag. This is a great advantage heading into a new season. One additional note – Rico pointed out that winter is also a great time to work on the engine of your game, your body. "Here at Coach Club, we have a TPI Golf Professional that brings our players through the TPI physical assessment. That really helps us identify where a player may be limited. Maybe it's hip mobility, maybe it's lack of flexibility, maybe it's strength or posture issues. But once we identify those issues, we can tailor a program that's going to help their body and their golf swing." ••• Finally, for any offseason program, Rico was quick to note that it's important to work with a qualified instructor and to formulate clear goals and a gameplan for achieving them. Some things to keep in mind: Choose an instructor (online or in-person) that you trust and stick with that teacher's approach. Far too many golfers get sidetracked by trying the latest tip that pops up in their social feed or inbox. You have to be careful to only work on issues that are relevant to your game. Be honest in assessing your strengths and weaknesses. Spend most of your time on the parts of your game that are costing you strokes. You can't cut 10 strokes off your handicap overnight. Changing motor patterns takes a lot of time, so be patient with yourself. Be accountable. In golf, instruction will do you no good if you can't realistically put in the time your coach prescribes for training and practice. As Rico told us, "If you're going to go to the gym and you want to lose 10 pounds, you're not going in there for one week. You have to spend a decent amount of time in there, putting in the work, and putting in the reps." Track your results and progress. Regularly evaluate before/after video, launch data changes and skills performance tests like TrackMan Combine to make sure your efforts are paying off. Embrace the process. It's a long journey, so make it fun and make sure you enjoy the ride! Thanks for your help, Rico! We'd love to hear your ideas too. Join the conversation and let us know what you'll be doing to keep your golf game sharp this offseason.

I noticed that the Pro V1 Performance Alignment ball is not available on the website. Is the ball so popular that it is sold out or is it going to be discontinued? I personally loved having the alignment already on my ball.

My first hole in one was on a par 3 course with half SW on a 100 yard hole, and I've always discounted it, waiting for one that was not essentially a chip. On December 5, 2023 I got my second hole in one at Phoenix Country Club, hitting my Pro V1 190 yards uphill, with what some of my buddies would call a little buttercut fade to soften the landing to a back pin with a 4 iron on hole 8. It hit nice and soft, broke a little right and took a tracking turn left along the ridge on the right side of the green. My playing partner said it went in, but I figured it was just another close one that would be right behind the stick. But as we got within 50 yards, and could see over the rise, it was nowhere to be seen. My second hole in one, at age 57 and a 25 year wait. A great shot and a great day! www.titleist.com/.../m6f3fipxo1oewvyud4vz
