Alex Fitzpatrick WITB 2026: What Does the Englishman Play With?
The year 2026 has begun with significant victories for the Fitzpatrick family. Just a week after his elder brother Matt secured a win at the Valspar Championship on the PGA Tour, Alex Fitzpatrick achieved his first triumph on the DP World Tour. This remarkable feat made history, as they became the first brothers to win in successive weeks across both prominent golf tours.
The 27-year-old golfer, who only turned professional in 2022, claimed the Hero India Open title after a particularly strong performance on the final nine holes. Fitzpatrick mounted an impressive comeback in the final round, overcoming a substantial lead held by the defending champion, Eugenio Chacarra. Despite recording a double bogey on the 18th hole, the English player secured a relatively dominant victory as his competitors gradually faltered.
Here are the clubs Alex Fitzpatrick utilized during his winning performance:
What's in Alex Fitzpatrick's Golf Bag?
For his driver, Fitzpatrick continues to rely on the Ping G440, which was introduced last year. Interestingly, this is his sole Ping club; he opts for a selection of TaylorMade fairway woods instead.
His current setup includes two TaylorMade Qi4D fairway woods—a 3-wood and a 7-wood—along with a TaylorMade Qi35 9-wood. It is uncommon for professional golfers to carry three fairway woods, but this choice likely reflects his specific preferences given his limited use of long irons.
Indeed, during his Hero Indian Open triumph, he carried only five irons, all of which were Titleist T100s. Similar to his fairway wood arrangement, he compensates with a comprehensive wedge setup. Fitzpatrick maintains his strong association with Titleist, utilizing three Titleist Vokey SM11 wedges and an additional Vokey SM11 Wedgeworks wedge.
Completing his Titleist gear is the Titleist Pro V1x golf ball, and he now employs an Odyssey Ai-One 7 S putter.
