What golf clubs does Rory McIlroy use and what is in Masters champion’s bag? | Golf | Sport
For the first time since 2015, Rory McIlroy will drive up Magnolia Drive without the pressure of trying to secure the Career Slam. Last year’s dramatic win in the play-off against Justin Rose will be remembered as the defining moment of McIlroy’s career, but can he repeat the feat this year around?
History would suggest not. There hasn’t been a repeat winner of the Masters since Tiger Woods went back-to-back in 2002, with the time before that coming in the early 1990s. Best believe the Irishman will give it a go, but what equipment will he have with him as he goes in search of another Masters win?
For starters, McIlroy is a TaylorMade staff golfer and has a bag almost entirely full of clubs from the manufacturer. But despite his successful 2025, which also included the Players Championship and Irish Open, McIlroy has made some significant changes to his bag for 2026.
