Driver testing remains a hot-button topic on the PGA Tour. Especially when someone leaks
Driver testing remains a hot-button topic on the PGA Tour. Especially when someone leaks Driver testing became a big topic of discussion again during the 107th PGA Championship when SiriusXM reported that Rory McIlroy's club had failed a USGA test ahead of the major, forcing him to switch out the head of the TaylorMade Qi10 driver he had used to win the Masters in April. He wasn't the only big-name player to fail, either. We learned during the final round that world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler was on his way to winning his third career major with his backup TaylorMade driver. 'I was the one who leaked it, basically, about Scott's,' Xander Schauffele said earlier this week ahead of the 2025 Memorial Tournament. 'To me, it was more of like, a credit to how good he was, ya know? I didn't realize — I apologized. I was like, 'Sorry, dude. I wasn't trying to have that be a question in your media after you just won another major.' It was more about, like, this guy just used his backup and absolutely rinsed the field again.' Scheffler gave a thoughtful answer, echoing Schauffele that more thorough testing needed to be implemented to make the testing more credible. Given that McIlroy has declined to comment on the subject, it refuses to go away. Last week, during his SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio show, Lucas Glover re-lit the fire when he said that he believes players on the PGA Tour who are required to submit their drivers for random USGA conformance testing for face flexibility have been known to avoid having their actual gamers tested by submitting a backup model for the field test instead.
