LOL @cbaker

Nice to see him win and wondered how many Nike clubs he still had in the bag.
 
I had to look up the MM Proto irons. Also, interesting story around his golf ball.
 
Also, both Chappel and Koepka have TM woods at the top of the bag. We know what else Chappel has now. Is Koepka still playing Nike irons, wedges too?

I think Koepka is playing Mizuno Irons without a contract.

Thanks! I think Tway(who?) is as well. Koepka would dwarf any of Mizuno's other recent signings if they could get him in their stable.
 
I'm more surprised about the wedges than anything else. I wonder where the guys playing Nike clubs still have work done on them while out on tour?
 
Nice little mix there

That's the most Nike guys I've ever seen in the Sunday mix.
 
I irrationally hate that PXG is being represented in a winners bag.

Is he sponsored to play those?
 
Good to see there using there old kit and not running after the big sponsorship bucks. Tommy Fleetwood is the same and still on his Vapor driver as well ? - good win for Chapel seems a nice guy

A lot of players have good relationships with all the trailer guys and equipment reps. If they need something simple done even from another OEM it's not a problem. It also gives the rep and company a chance to build goodwill, when the player decodes to make a change.
 
Interesting to see so much Nike still in the bag
 
Nice to see him win, seems like a nice guy.
 
Those MMProtos look good
 
The Pro Combos were legit, cool to see them still getting some play "from the grave". Nice first win for Kevin!

EDIT: I am now wondering, which Pro Combos? The originals, the VR's, or the Vapors?

These are there big names on the PGA tour.
Stacey Lewis on the LPGA.
I'll add mizuno are the #1 played club on the tour for players without an air tight contract.

Kevin Chappell after leaving Nike is without a contract. Was offered but wanted to keep playing is nikes
 
Kevin tried playing other irons, but wasn't having much success. Switched back to the Nike to get something he was comfortable with. Looks like it was a good move.

Vapors... which makes sense seeing as the MMproto got some PVD fill and became the Vapor Pro
 
I'm always so impressed when guys win the same week as changing clubs. Kind of like at The Grandaddy!!
