Collin Morikawa What's in the Bag? (2025)

Collin Morikawa is regarded as one of the best iron players in the game and with two majors to his name so far, seems destined for a Hall of Fame career. Morikawa well and truly proved his maiden 2020 US PGA Championship victory was no fluke after a stunning performance to win the 2021 British Open Championship, his second major win from just eight attempts at only 24 years of age.

The American endured a two-year winning drought after winning the Open Championship before finally breaking through at the 2023 ZOZO Championship in Japan. It was the 27-year-old’s seventh career win and gave golf fans a glimpse of his major-winning best.

In Collin's first start of 2025, he finished runner-up at The Sentry Tournament of Champions in Hawaii.

 TAYLORMADE Qi35 LS DRIVER (9°)

Collin switched from the Qi10 LS driver to the new TaylorMade Qi35 LS driver in early 2025. The Qi35 LS is a driver aimed at players with faster swing speeds and is the lowest-spinning and lowest launching driver in the line-up. It features a carbon fibre face, sole and crown to generate elite ball speeds.

TaylorMade’s new TAS, or Trajectory Adjustment System, is a significant addition to the Qi35 driver. The TAS arrangement in Collin’s Qi35 LS driver features three discrete sole weight positions, rather than the sliding weight track that featured on Collin’s Qi10 LS driver. The change freed up mass to make adjusting the centre of gravity, and consequently the launch and spin of the driver, more efficient and effective. The LS can also be draw biased via the front two weights, although Collin is happy to keep playing his powerful and consistent fade off the tee.

Collin’s Qi35 LS driver is installed with a Mitsubishi Diamana D+ Limited 60 TX shaft.

TAYLORMADE SIM TITANIUM ROCKET (3W 14°), TAYLORMADE Qi10 FAIRWAY WOOD (5W 18°)

Collin sticks with the original SIM Titanium Rocket three wood that was released in 2020 while he has a much newer TaylorMade Qi10 five wood in the bag.

The SIM Titanium Rocket has the smallest head size of the SIM fairway wood line-up and features a lightweight ZATECH titanium face, which is stronger and more flexible than standard titanium. A steel sole and carbon fibre crown complete the picture to create an ultra-low CG that leads to high-launching distance.

Collin’s TaylorMade Qi10 five wood offers high-launching performance, aided by the Qi10 fairway’s lightweight carbon fibre infinity crown, and its V Steel sole offers more efficient interaction with the turf at impact. Both fairway woods are fitted with a Mitsubishi Diamana D+ Limited 80 TX shaft.

TAYLORMADE P7CB IRONS (4-6), TAYLORMADE P730 IRONS (7-PW)

One of the best iron players in the game, Collin uses a blended set of TaylorMade irons.

Collin was heavily involved with the development of the P7CB iron, which he uses in his longer irons. P7CB irons are forged player’s irons that feature a compact blade length, thin topline and narrow sole. Forged using TaylorMade’s Compact Grain Forging technique, which keeps the microstructure of the irons' 1025 carbon steel intact, the irons offer elite feel and precise feedback that is prerequisite for the best players in the world.

P7CB irons have tungsten weighting co-forged into the cavity back, which offers stability but doesn’t alter the inherent shot-shaping capability of the irons. A progressive centre of gravity optimises spin, control and precision through the set.

Meanwhile, Collin’s P730 irons are muscleback blades – those revered, minimalist irons designed chiefly for players who can hit the sweet spot with ruthless regularity. They offer comprehensive workability and an unmatched purity of feel. While TaylorMade no longer make P730 irons, they are a close relation to the new P7MB irons.

Collin has True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts installed in his TaylorMade irons.

TAYLORMADE MG4 WEDGES (50°, 56°), MG4 TW (60°)

Collin carries a full suite of TaylorMade MG4 wedges and they complement his incredible precision inside 100 yards and around the greens. TaylorMade Milled Grind 4 wedges feature a new laser-etched groove design and accompanying micro face texture that improves spin consistency. And the soles, offered in a variety of grinds, are CNC-milled for uniformity.Collin’s MG4 wedges feature a raw finish that rusts over time. His 50° MG4 wedge has a standard grind and 9° of bounce on the sole, while his 56° wedge is a low bounce model (8°).

However, his 60° MG4 TW wedge replicates the exact grind and bounce specifications of Tiger Woods. It has 11° of bounce and the relief taken out of the leading and trail edges and heel area allows him to open the face and play every kind of shot around the greens. Collin has True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 shafts fitted in all three of his wedges.

TAYLORMADE TP SOTO PUTTER

Not everyone can say they’ve holed putts to win a couple of majors like Collin can. But it doesn’t mean Collin is the sentimental type when it comes to his flatstick. The TP Juno he wielded previously has been replaced by a TP Soto; a similar Anser-style blade putter, with sharp lines, a classical appearance and 35° of toe hang. Given the quality of his iron play, if Collin starts rolling the Soto he’s always a danger.

TAYLORMADE TP5x GOLF BALL

Collin plays TaylorMade’s new 2024 TP5x golf ball, a five-layer tour ball that offers the ideal blend of distance off the tee and spin around the greens.
The new 2024 TP5x features a new Speed Wrapped Core that makes it the fastest TP5x ever made. It spins less with the driver and long irons but still offers plenty of wedge spin and stopping power on the greens. Collin’s new TP5x has a firmer feel than the TP5 ball he has played previously.
