October 23, 2023 – Collin Morikawa<\/strong> powered past a packed leaderboard at the ZOZO Championship<\/strong> to claim his sixth PGA Tour victory by 6-strokes. Morikawa fired a bogey-free Sunday 63 hitting all but three greens in regulation with his TP5x golf ball to seal the win.<\/p>\n

Against the backdrop of Accordia Golf Narashino Country Club<\/strong>, just northeast of Tokyo, Morikawa entered the final round two shots off the lead but wasted no time igniting his charge. His birdie at the third was followed by three more on the front nine shooting an impressive outward score of 30. That propelled him to a three-shot lead that he wouldn\u2019t relinquish.<\/p>\n

Morikawa\u2019s victory was powered by a full bag of TaylorMade equipment<\/strong>, including two changes coming toward the end of the FedEx Cup regular season in adding Milled Grind 4 wedges<\/strong> and TP5x golf ball<\/strong> to the bag.<\/p>\n

TaylorMade Senior Tour Manager<\/strong> Adrian Rietveld <\/strong>comment<\/strong> on Morikawa’s switch to <\/strong>TP5x<\/strong>:<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cCollin tested the TP5x vs his gamer TP5 at the BMW Championship in August and found that he was hitting his desired numbers with his long irons more consistently with the TP5x. That was something he felt like he was lacking in his game and the lower spin and flight characteristics of TP5x produced the numbers he was looking for. We then added a little loft to his mid and short irons to give him 500 RPM more spin with those clubs after the switch to TP5x and that created the perfect blend of spin and flight characteristics throughout the bag. The switch allowed him to see the flight he was looking for in his long irons but also maintain the low cut he hits with driver and 3-wood.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Collin Morikawa <\/strong>said on his <\/strong>Milled Grind 4 Wedges<\/strong>:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cI like the control of the MG4 and being able to see that through the turf is great. I used to have a lot heavier of a wedge and then learned having a little lighter headweight wedge I can get the club back to neutral where I want it when chipping. I always have issues with leading edge forward, leading edge digging in. Having the MG4 TW wedge I can get it back a little lighter and let the club get back before my hands and go from there. I feel like I have more control of the club. I can stay aggressive with my body keeping in front of me rather than having it behind me and going around.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
