After posting Sunday’s best round, Hyo Joo Kim (Pro V1x) stuck her approach on the first playoff hole to 6 feet and rolled in the birdie putt to claim her seventh career LPGA title. Kim made nine birdies in regulation, carding a final round 8-under 64 to post the clubhouse lead (22 under) and force the all-Pro V1x playoff with third-round leader Lilia Vu (Pro V1x).  

Kim led a 1-2-3 finish for Titleist golf ball players: 

1. Hyo Joo Kim (Pro V1x) 

2. Lilia Vu (Pro V1x) 

3. Allisen Corpuz (Pro V1) 

They were among the 73 percent (105) of players this week who teed up a Pro V1 or Pro V1x, more than eight times the nearest competitor (13, 9%).

Five of the first six events this season on the LPGA Tour have been won with a Pro V1 or Pro V1x: 

• Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions: A Lim Kim (NEW 2025 Pro V1) 
  

• Founders Cup: Yealimi Noh (Pro V1) 
  

• Honda LPGA Thailand: Angel Yin (Pro V1) 
  

• HSBC Women's World Championship: Lydia Ko (NEW 2025 Pro V1) 
  

• Ford Championship: Hyo Joo Kim (Pro V1x) 
  

The winner of the Ford Championship had three Vokey Design SM10 wedges in her winning setup.

The Texas Children’s Houston Open champion gamed a pair of Vokey Design wedges in claiming his first PGA TOUR victory Sunday at Memorial Park.  

In the winner’s bag was a Vokey SM10 56.08M sand wedge and WedgeWorks 60T lob wedges, which he used to gain more than two strokes around the green (+2.25/14th). 

More than half of the gap, sand and lob wedges in play this were Vokey Design (245/54%), compared to 54 (12%) for the nearest competitor.  

Vokey has been the most played wedge on the PGA TOUR since 2004.

Earning his best finish in over a year on the PGA TOUR, the fourth-place finisher at the Texas Children’s Houston Open continued his improved play since making the switch to a Titleist golf ball and Vokey wedges earlier this season. This week in Houston, he also made the change from a competitive driver to a Titleist GT3. 

In late February at the Mexico Open, he switched from a competitive golf ball and wedges into a Titleist Pro V1x+ prototype and four Vokey Design SM10’s. 

This week, he made the move into the NEW 2025 Pro V1x model and was in total control from start to finish. He gained a field-best +8.088 strokes on approach shots while also leading the field in Greens in Regulation at 83% (60 of 72). On Sunday, he hit 17 of 18 GIRs on his way to a bogey-free 8-under 62 that tied the course record at Memorial Park. 

In his first week with his new GT3 9.0 driver, he also gained over 1.5 strokes off the tee (+1.593/24th), having entered the week at 160th on TOUR in that category overall.  

He has now made five consecutive cuts on the PGA TOUR since the Mexico Open, his longest streak to date. (Previous longest was three in a row.)

The 2019 U.S. Open champion led the field in Strokes Gained: Putting in his first week gaming his new Scotty Cameron Phantom 9 tour prototype putter, picking up +8.738 strokes for the week on his way to a T-2 finish. He also finished 1st in Putts per GIR (1.47). 

The 40-year-old made a charge up the Sunday leaderboard, draining a 35-foot, 4-inch eagle putt on No. 16 to remain firmly in contention. A birdie on No. 18 (his seventh of the day) put the finishing touches on a course record-tying 8-under 62 that left him just one shot back of the champion. 

He made the switch from a competitive putter to a Scotty Cameron in February at the Cognizant Classic, putting a Phantom 11 tour prototype in play at PGA National. This week, he moved to the smaller Phantom 9 head shape with immediate success. 

Eugenio Chacarra (Pro V1) claimed his breakthrough DPWT title, earning a two-shot victory over a leaderboard that finished with just three players in red numbers. 

Chacarra’s final round was highlighted by a run of five birdies between Nos. 6-14 at the exacting DLF G&CC, which saw him regain and extend the lead with which he started the final round. The Spaniard closed in 71, his third sub-par round of the week (70-70-73-71), to finish the week at 4 under. No other player in the field had more than two. 

Chacarra was one of the 113 players to tee up a Titleist golf ball this week, 82 percent of the field. That total was more than 10 times the nearest competitor (11, 8%). 

The winner of the Hero Indian Open brought a Vokey Design SM10 60.08M lob wedge to the winner’s circle. For the week, there were 272 Titleist/Vokey Design pitching, gap, sand and lob wedges, accounting for more than half of all wedges in play (51%). 

Steve Allan (Pro V1) earned his first career PGA TOUR Champions title, posting rounds of 69-65-67 to post 15 under and win by one. The Australian was in full control of his ballstriking, hitting 46 of 54 greens in regulation (85%, 2nd) en route to a field-best 19 birdies (T1). 

The winner of The Galleri Classic broke through on the Champions Tour gaming his GT3 driver, full set of T100 irons and three Vokey Design SM10 wedges. He also played a U•510 3-iron.  

WITB | The Galleri Classic champion: Titleist Pro V1 golf ball; GT3 10.0 driver; U•510 3-iron, T100 4-P irons; Vokey Design SM10 52, 56, 60 wedges 

Michael Hollick (NEW 2025 Pro V1) closed in 8-under 64 to take home the 2024-25 Sunshine Tour season finale by two shots. Hollick made nine Sunday birdies – including one on the par-5 18th – to post 19 under for the week. The victory is the second of the season for Hollick, who won the FBC Zimbabwe Open last May.  

The winner of the DNI Tour Championship brought his GT3 driver, blended set of T-Series irons, Vokey SM10 wedges and Scotty Cameron Studio Style putter to the winner’s circle.

Daniel van Tonder finished on top at the end of the 2024-25 Sunshine Tour season, winning Order of Merit honors. Van Tonder recorded four victories dating back to August 2024. 

WITB | Daniel van Tonder: Titleist Pro V1x; TSR3 8.0 driver; TSi2 13.5, 18.0 fairways; 620 CB 4-9 irons; Vokey Design SM10 46.10F, 50.08F, 56.08M, 60.06K wedges, Scotty Cameron tour prototype putter 

In total control of NEW 2025 Pro V1x golf ball, Titleist Brand Ambassador Harrison Crowe conquered high winds and difficult conditions to claim his first victory as a professional. Crowe, gaming a Titleist setup that includes his GT3 driver and GT2 fairway, T100 irons, Vokey SM10 wedges and Scotty Cameron putter, turned in the only bogey-free round on Sunday, a 4-under 68, to win by two in Victoria. 

“It was very testing out there and I just kind of had to keep bringing myself back and just stay really in the moment,” said Crowe after the round. “It was easy to wander off – what the lead was, what the score was – and trying to look too far ahead but I think I did a really, really good job today of just being present and staying really, really patient.” 

The 23-year-old shot 19 under for the week, the final event of the 2024-25 season. His victory saw him finish 8th in the Order of Merit.  

Crowe was one of 105 players this week teeing up a Titleist Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball, 84 percent of the field. 

Titleist drivers were in the bags of 74 players, more than half the field (59%).

Ryan Grider (NEW 2025 Pro V1x) broke through in the PGA TOUR Americas season opener, prevailing in extra holes. The 26-year-old turned in rounds of 65-66-68-69 for the week around Cordoba Golf Club, and he made birdie on the par-4 18th twice on Sunday: the first forcing a playoff and the second defeating Joey Vrzich (NEW 2025 Pro V1), who had also posted 16 under. 

The winner of the 93 Abierto del Centro gamed a GT3 10.0 driver in winning his first career PGA TOUR-sanctioned title. 

Gaming a NEW 2025 Pro V1x golf ball, the champion of the AXA Ladies Golf Tournament carded a bogey-free 5-under 67 final round, good for a two-shot win. The victory marked her first career JLPGA title.
