BROOKS HAS A NEW DEAL.
He is also the winner of the latest edition of “The Match”.
Because early in the week, 4-time major champion Brooks Koepka, announced an equipment deal with Cleveland/Srixon.
So here is the breakdown on what Koepka is playing, and what’s in his bag.
The Driver is a Srixon ZX5 with a 9.5. His Irons are Srixon ZX7 irons 4-PW.
Wedges are the Cleveland RTX ZipCore Tour Rack 52 degree MID, 56 degree MID, 60 degree LOW. The golf ball is the Srixon Z-Star prototype. Koepka will have a Srixon Tour Staff Bag.
“I am very excited to join my good friends Shane Lowery, Graeme McDowell and Hideki Matsuyama as a Srixon and Cleveland Tour Staff member,” said Koepka. “I’ve been an equipment free agent for the past few years, so it will be fun to be involved with a company on a daily basis and be able to contribute to the development of their future equipment. So I put the ZX7 Irons in play in January and it is the best iron I have played on tour. I look forward to kicking off our partnership in Las Vegas.”
Koepka did use the Srixon ZX7 irons during his win at the Waste Management-Phoenix Open this February.
“We’re extremely proud to have Brooks come on board as our newest staff member,” said Rodney McDonald Vice President of Tour Operations at Srixon. “He’s one of the best players in the world and brings his major championship pedigree and validation to our brands. We’re excited for Brooks to join the Srixon and Cleveland Golf family and look forward to supporting him on tour.”
