By Rick V., Team Titleist Staff On 17 May 2019 Balls Tour Clubs

Adam Scott Raises his Pro V1 golf ball to slaute the crowd at Bethpage Black after holing a biride putt during action at the 2019 PGA ChampionshipThe PGA Tour heads to Long Island, NY this week for the second major of the year, the PGA Championship. The Black Course at Bethpage State Park is hosting the event for the first time, demanding power, precision, creativity and mental toughness from the elite field in pursuit of the Wannamaker Trophy.

Graphic detailing Titleist golf balls as the overwhelming choice among players at the 2019 PGA ChampionshipTitleist is once again the most popular golf ball choice among players at the PGA Championship, with 63% of players in the 156-man field (98 players) trusting a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball, more than four times the nearest competitor with 14% (21 players) and more than all other competitor brand golf balls combined.

Titleist is also the #1 choice among players in the hybrids (30) and irons (41) categories. Vokey Design Wedges also topped the approach, sand and lob wedge category with 182 Vokey models in play.

In addition, 31 players this week are trusting one golf brand, Titleist, from tee-to-green, throughout the entire bag — a vote of confidence that speaks volumes on a course as demanding as The Black.

As we get ready for an exciting weekend on one of golf's most iconic tracks, let's take a look at the gear that a few of these Titleist Brand Ambassadors will be relying on at the 101st edition of the PGA Championship.
