Check out the newest Titleist GT golf clubs, including Justin Thomas' RBC winning driver
Check out the newest Titleist GT golf clubs, including Justin Thomas' RBC winning driver Titleist GT 1 driver The GT1 represents the biggest technological leap ever in Titleist driver design Shop at PGA TOUR Superstore Justin Thomas won the 2025 RBC Heritage in dramatic fashion on Sunday, holing a 21-foot birdie putt to win the tournament in a playoff. While it was his first win in three years, JT has been playing great golf so far this year, with five top-10 finishes. One of the reasons for Thomas improved play is a swap to the new Titleist GT2 driver. The GT2 is one of four drivers released by Titleist in 2025. The GT1 adds peak forgiveness, the GT2 maximizes stability, the GT3 aids left-right adjustability and the GT4 is for golfers who need a low-spin driver. Per Golfweek equipment guru David Dusek from his original club review earlier this year, For the past several generations of woods, Titleist has kept to the same naming conventions and made it very easy for golfers to get a good sense for what each driver is about. Clubs that end with a 2, like the recently released GT2, are designed to deliver a blend of stability and distance, while 3 clubs, such as the GT3, are made to blend left-and-right adjustability with enhanced ball speed. Clubs that get a 4 designation, such as the GT4, are low-spin offerings. But Titleist didn't stop with drivers, also releases three new accompanying GT hybrids in 2025. Per Dusek, "Players seeking high-launching, forgiving hybrids with lightweight configurations (GT1); golfers who want maximum forgiveness and stability (GT2); and advanced players who value workability and a compact, iron-like design for shaping shots (GT3)." Take a look at all the new Titleist GT drivers and hybrids to see which could be right for your game. Shop Titleist GT golf clubs at PGA TOUR Superstore Titleist GT drivers Titleist GT1 driver The Titleist GT1 is the most forgiving of the new Titleist drivers and retails for $649.99. Titleist GT2/3/4 drivers The other new Titleist drivers provide golfers different solutions including more stability, enhanced ball speed and low-spin offerings. Titleist GT2, GT3, GT4 drivers Shop all new Titleist GT drivers at PGA TOUR Superstore Shop Titleist GT drivers The GT1 features heavier weight in the front, causing the launch angle to decrease and ball speed to increase. The GT2 is slightly smaller and is the most forgiving of the three. Finally, the GT3 is the smallest of the bunch and crafted for the higher-level golfer. For a deeper dive into Titleist GT hybirds, check out David Dusek's full review.

10 new releases honoring the 2025 Masters including Callaway, Under Armour and more We are officially less than one week away from the start of the 2025 Masters.

Whether it's new floral apparel, special equipment, or just a whole lot of green, here are 10 new collections released to honor every golfer's favorite weekend of the year including Callaway, Under Armour, Sun Day Red and more. 1) TravisMathew - Our Favorite Time of Year Collection TravisMathew is home to some of our favorite golf apparel like the Heater Polo and the Open to Close Pants. TM's new collection features ambassador Akshay Bhatia and is full of polos, pants, hats, golf shoes and more. 2) Adidas - Return to Originals Nothing says tradition like Augusta National, so naturally adidas is returning to originals. David Dusek wrote about the new golf shoes that will be worn by Ludvig Aberg at the Masters. The entire collection goes on sale to the public on Thursday, April 3. MORE ADIDAS: Ludvig Aberg to sport Adidas Golf's 'Return to Originals' footwear, apparel at Masters 3) Rhoback x Seamus Golf - Azalea 2025 Rhoback recently updated its annual Azalea Collection and on Thursday evening they are scheduled to release the brand new collab with Seamus Golf, featuring some azalea printed headcovers. MORE RHOBACK: Rhoback drops 2025 Azalea Collection, the perfect spring golf apparel 4) Under Armour - Going for the Green Jordan Spieth is one of the most popular players on Tour and no matter the shape of his game is a threat each and every year at Augusta National.

While Stitch is known for their golf bags, don't sleep on the floral touches added to the polos and hats as well. 7) Golf Pride - Honorary Starter Grips From David Dusek's full review, "Adorned in vibrant green and trimmed with pink azaleas, the Honorary Starter Tour Velvet grips will feel and perform like the standard Tour Velvet grips, which are among the most popular in the game, but give your clubs a jolt of early-season style." MORE GOLF PRIDE: Golf Pride releases limited-edition 'Honorary Starter' grips 8) Sun Day Red - Azalea Gold Collection Forest greens and azalea blossoms of white, pink and purple, if anybody knows Augusta it's Tiger Woods.
