TaylorMade is keeping one of its top players in the stable.
The company announced that Tommy Fleetwood, the No. 14 player in the world, has inked a multi-year extension to stay with TaylorMade.
Fleetwood, 32, has been one of the most consistent players in golf since joining TaylorMade three years ago. The Englishman has recorded 15 top-10 finishes in that time.
“Being a member of Team TaylorMade is something I am proud of so renewing my contract is a natural progression for my continued improvement,” Fleetwood said in a press release.
Fleetwood employed a full NIKE bag until the company exited the hard-goods business in 2016. He transitioned into a mixed bag as a gear free agent, holding onto some of his NIKE clubs—including a set of his beloved VR Pro irons—for the following two seasons. He continued to add TaylorMade clubs until signing on to be a staff member in December 2020.
This season, Fleetwood is expected to play a nine-degree Qi10 LS driver, a 13.5-degree BRNR Mini-Driver, an 18-degree Qi10 5-wood, P7TW irons, a 52-degree Hi-Toe 3 wedge and TP5x pix golf ball. He was also using two Titleist Vokey WedgeWorks Proto wedges and an Odyssey White Hot Pro 3 putter coming into the new year.
The recently unveiled Qi10 LS driver also is being used by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. It is one of several new drivers that reached the USGA conforming list last November.
The Tiger-inspired P7TW irons, released in April 2019, have been good to Fleetwood since adding them in 2021. He ranked No. 8 in Strokes Gained tee-to-green on the PGA Tour last season.
