Seen On Tour: Team TaylorMade Takes On Muirfield Village

Mike Esse | June 5, 2024
Memorial 18th Hole

Team TaylorMade has one final tune up before the third major of the year next week at Pinehurst No. 2, and there probably isn’t a more difficult tune up golf course than Jack’s Place. Muirfiled Village is a demanding golf course that calls for strategic approaches off the tee and accurate approaches into greens with even thicker rough around the greens than past years.

We went inside the ropes with Team TaylorMade to get a look at how they will attack Muirfield Village ahead of The Memorial.

3-WOOD SZN FOR RORY

Rory McIlroy is coming off a Sunday 66 at the RBC Canadian Open to finish T4 heading into week two of a four week run of tournaments in June. Rory’s Qi10 3-wood will be huge off the tee this week as the course doesn’t call for drivers, especially when you can run it out to 330+ with driver like Rory can.

The advantage for Rory is that his 3-wood goes as far as a lot of his competitor’s drivers consistently carrying at 300-yards. In his back nine practice round on Tuesday, Rory went with the following clubs off the tee on Par 4s and 5s:

  • 10th Hole: Qi10 9.0° driver
  • 11th Hole: Qi10 9.0° driver
  • 13th Hole: Qi10 15.0° 3-wood
  • 14th Hole: P·760 4-iron
  • 15th Hole: Qi10 9.0° driver
  • 17th Hole: Qi10 15.0° 3-wood
  • 18th Hole: Qi10 15.0° 3-wood

Hitting fairways was crucial in Rory’s practice round because it opened up the playbook to throw absolute darts at pins as you see from our Instagram post below.

EVERY SHOT FROM TOMMY'S PRACTICE ROUND

We were lucky to be able to follow Tommy Fleetwood during his 9-hole practice round on Monday afternoon and go behind-the-scenes with Tommy and his caddy David Clark. Every shot from his practice round is below.

Tommy only missed one fairway the entire round, with a mix of Qi10 Driver, BRNR Mini and Qi10 9-wood off the tee. Similar to Rory, there weren’t many drivers on the back nine for Tommy.

  • 10th Hole: BRNR Mini Driver
  • 11th Hole: Qi10 9.0° driver
  • 13th Hole: BRNR Mini Driver
  • 14th Hole: Qi10 24.0° 9-wood
  • 15th Hole: Qi10 9.0° driver
  • 17th Hole: BRNR Mini Driver
  • 18th Hole: Qi10 9.0° driver

WORLD NO. 1 REMAINS STEADY

Scottie Scheffler remains as steady as ever heading into Jack’s Place. Scottie’s WITB hasn’t changed since he put Spider Tour X into play at Bay Hill kickstarting an epic run of four wins in five starts including at The Masters.

COLLIN'S FRONT NINE MASTERCLASS

Collin Morikawa is known as one of the best iron players on the planet. We saw why first hand during his Tuesday practice round. Collin had an unreal back-to-back birdie stretch on the second and third holes led by finding both fairways and two exquisite shots into the green. Swipe through the post below to see what clubs he hit en route to both birdies.

Since Collin switched to Qi10 LS 9.0° driver and back to TP5x golf ball the week of the Masters, he has finished in the Top 10 in four of six starts:

  • The Masters – T3
  • RBC Heritage – 9
  • PGA Championship – T4
  • Charles Schwab Challenge – 4

The WITB for that stretch and this week:
