A look at Rory McIlroy’s golf clubs for 2024 season
2024 will be Rory McIlroy’s 17th season as a professional golfer. In 2017 the Northern Irishman signed a long-term club contract with TaylorMade and a clothing deal with NIKE. In 2022/2023 PGA Tour season McIlroy used TaylorMade Stealth Plus Driver and was ranked 157th in driving accuracy. The four-time major winner is still the longest on the PGA Tour as his driving distance in 2022/2023 season was 326 yards. McIlroy put the new TaylorMade QI10 LS Driver in his bag for 2023 DP World Tour Championship. McIlroy uses the 2024 TaylorMade QI LS Driver with a black shaft and set at nine degrees.
Even though McIlroy started 2024 with a tied second finish at Dubai Invitational he only hit three fairways in the final round. The Northern Irishman has a TaylorMade Stealth 2 Plus Fairway Wood in his bag. McIlroy uses this club off the tee at a short par four or for his second shot at a par five. This fairway wood is good for hitting a high shot and this is one of the things that McIlroy is exceptional at.
McIlroy put a TaylorMade Stealth UDI Driving Iron into the bag in 2022. Depending on the course or tournament McIlroy switches between a 5 wood and driving iron. McIlroy’s three and four irons are TaylorMadeP760 whereas five iron to pitching wedge are TaylorMade P730 Rors. The four-time major winner needs to do a bit of work with his four iron especially after putting it into the water off the tee at the sixth hole in Dubai Creek.
McIlroy used Titleist clubs when he won the US Open at Congressional in 2011. The Northern Irishman has one Titleist club in his bag which is a58 degree Vokey Wedge along with a 54 degree TaylorMade MG3 Raw Wedge. McIlroy was fifth in Approach play on DP World Tour in 2023. The Northern Irishman’s iron game improved as his stroke average on 2022/2023 PGA Tour season was 68.
McIlroy uses a TaylorMade Spider X Hydro Blast Putter but sometimes swaps it for a Scotty Cameron 009M. The Northern Irishman has improved his putting over the last few years especially down to the work he is doing with Brad Faxon. McIlroy was the best putter in 2023 DP World Tour season and this was crucial in winning his fifth Race to Dubai title. The four-time major champion has started 2024 putting well as he made 26 birdies at Dubai Invitational.
McIlroy uses a TaylorMade TP5x Golf Ball (#22. McIlroy ‘s consistency in 2023 is down to having the right golf ball as he finished 10 times in the top 10 starting at the PGA Championship in May. McIlroy wears Nike Air Zoom Victory Tour 3 golf shoes. 2024 is a big year for McIlroy as he is looking to end his 10 year major drought with great equipment.
