Winners' bags: Brennan wins in Japan with an unreleased Titleist 3-wood

Michael Brennan won the Baycurrent Classic with the same all-Titleist set-up he used to win the Wyndham Championship, including an unreleased GTS 3-wood, a 21° GTS3 7-wood and 620 CB irons first shown in 2019.

Michael Brennan has won twice in 2026 without changing his clubs. The bag he used at Yokohama Country Club on Sunday to win the Baycurrent Classic is the all-Titleist set-up that won him the Wyndham Championship in August, including a prototype 3-wood you can’t buy, according to GOLF.com.

Brennan closed with a 68 to finish on −16, one shot clear of Jacob Bridgeman and Keith Mitchell, for his third PGA TOUR title.

Brennan’s winning bag

GOLF.com and GolfWRX both published his winning clubs on Sunday. This is GOLF.com’s list:

Club Model and shaft
Driver Titleist GT3 (9°), Project X HZRDUS Smoke Blue RDX 70 TX
3-wood Titleist GTS prototype (15°), Project X Titan Yellow 80 TX
7-wood Titleist GTS3 (21°), Project X Titan Yellow 80 TX
Irons Titleist T100 (4–5), Titleist 620 CB (6–9), Project X 6.5
Wedges Titleist Vokey SM11 (46.10F, 50.12F, 54.10S, 60.08M)
Putter Scotty Cameron GOLO 6 Tour prototype
Ball Titleist Pro V1 (2025)

Grips are Golf Pride Z-Grip Cord. The two lists agree on every model but differ in two details: GolfWRX gives the driver as 8° rather than 9°, and splits the wedge shafts differently between Project X and True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400. GolfWRX adds that the 54° is bent to 55°.

The PGA TOUR’s final-round highlights from Yokohama:

An unreleased 3-wood with three wins

According to GOLF.com, the GTS 3-wood is a prototype on which Titleist has not commented. It first appeared in March and has now featured in three wins, and Brennan was one of the first players to test it. GOLF.com describes a larger, shallower head similar to the GT1 fairway wood he used previously, with a silver face and a single sole weight port.

Many tour players prefer compact, deep-faced 3-woods, designed for players who hit down on the ball, and a bigger, shallower head generally launches more easily. Titleist has published no specifications, so we can’t say why Brennan prefers it.

The 7-wood instead of a long iron

Brennan’s next club down is a 21° GTS3 fairway wood, used as a 7-wood where many players would carry a hybrid or driving iron. Titleist says the 21° loft is new for the GTS3, giving golfers a choice of two 7-wood head shapes. It describes the GTS3 as having “a deeper face and a more compact profile” for players who hit down on the ball, the opposite brief to his prototype 3-wood.

Titleist also claims the GTS fairways give higher flight, lower spin and more forgiveness. In Brennan’s bag the 7-wood replaces a 3-iron. The GTS3 comes in 15°, 16.5°, 18° and 21°. Its US launch price was US$399 with a standard shaft and US$599 with a premium one. Titleist’s UK website does not list a price; the club is sold through Titleist fitters and authorised retailers.

Irons: T100s and seven-year-old 620 CBs

The irons are a blend: T100 in the 4 and 5, and 620 CB from 6-iron to 9-iron. Titleist first showed the 620 CB at the 2019 US Open.

His wedges are a 46°, which replaces the pitching wedge, then 50°, 54° and 60°. According to GOLF.com, he switched to the GOLO 6 Tour prototype putter earlier this season.

The weekend’s other winners

Grant Forrest won the Open de España at Club de Campo Villa de Madrid with a birdie at the last. Miyu Yamashita took the Ladies European Tour’s Aramco Korea Championship on −22, helped by a course-record 63, and Austin Hitt won the Korn Ferry Tour Championship to earn his PGA TOUR card. At the time of publication we could find no confirmed equipment list for any of them, and an older list is no reliable guide to what they used, so we have not included their bags.
