The 2024 PGA Tour season is well getting near the homestretch and with that, we continue to take a look at every driver used to win on tour over the course of the year. We've played 27 events so far (with 28 winners), and for the first time, a driver from Krank Golf has claimed a victory after Bryson DeChambeau's victory at the U.S. Open. For the season, TaylorMade holds the top spot with nine victories, followed by Ping with six wins and Titleist with five. Callaway has had four champs in 2024, Srixon has had two victories and Mizuno rounds out the list with one. Looking at all the winning drivers provides an interesting way to review a year, while also offering a closer look at the best technology being used on tour. Included with each player is a key driving stat from the week he won.
Bryson DeChambeau, U.S. Open

Among the improvements here—beyond better overall stability on mis-hits on the heel and toe and high and low—is the increased use of carbon composite in the crown. Now stretching almost seamlessly to the top of the face, the crown saves weight to help increase stability on off-center hits and to lower the center of gravity for reduced spin and better energy transfer. The structure of the channel in the sole now gives more at impact to deliver extra flex to the face for faster ball speed, particularly on lower hits on the face.

Robert MacIntyre, RBC Canadian Open
![2155760511](http://golfdigest.sports.sndimg.com/content/dam/images/golfdigest/fullset/2024/6/robert-macintyre-rbc-canadian-open-2024-every-driver.jpg.rend.hgtvcom.966.644.suffix/1717413382459.jpeg)
Minas Panagiotakis
Driver: Titleist TSR2 (Graphite Design Tour AD DI 7X), 9 degrees
Key driving stat: While MacIntyre was only 28th for the week in strokes gained/off the tee, he finished 13th in driving distance on measured holes (312.4 yards) and T-14 in driving accuracy (35 of 56 fairways).
![](https://www.golfdigest.com/content/dam/images/golfdigest/fullset/hotlist-2024/drivers/Titleist TSR2_D_HERO.jpg)
This is Titleist’s most forgiving and welcoming shape. It features a larger face area and most importantly a unique face-thickness pattern that emphasizes performance on mis-hits. All that is enhanced by the overall larger footprint that makes for the most stable head in the line. The sleeker external lines and curves make that larger shape sail through the air a bit smoother to let players generate more clubhead speed.

David Cannon
Driver: Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond (Mitsubishi Diamana PD 70TX), 10.5 degrees
Key driving stat: In grabbing his elusive first major title, Schauffele ranked third in the field at Valhalla in strokes gained/off the tee, 15th in driving distance (310 yards) and T-16 in fairways hit (73.21 percent).
![](https://www.golfdigest.com/content/dam/images/golfdigest/fullset/hotlist-2024/drivers/Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond_D_HERO.jpg)
The lowest spinning model in the family was developed with the help of data from elite golfers and tour players. It uses a distinct multi-thickness face, designed through the use of artificial intelligence, that focuses on enhancing performance on center hits. Slightly heavier than the standard models, it aims to produce a neutral ball flight. The largely carbon-composite crown and sole save weight to make room for interchangeable weights in the front and rear of the sole. Callaway says this version improves downrange dispersion over last year’s Paradym TD by 34 percent.

Mike Mulholland
Driver: Ping G430 LST (Accra TZ6), 9 degrees
Key driving stat: Pendrith finished inside the top 10 in strokes gained/off the tee (sixth) and driving distance (third, 306.1 yards).
![](https://www.golfdigest.com/content/dam/images/golfdigest/fullset/hotlist-2024/drivers/Ping G430 LST_D_HERO.jpg)
The more compact size (440 cubic centimeters) and slightly more forward center of gravity should resonate with high-swing-speed players who are seeking extra control and low spin. A carbon-composite section in the back half of the crown helps to lower the CG. It also wraps around the perimeter to save weight. The lowest launching model in the G430 family uses a face design that’s thinner to provide additional ball speed. The face also curves less at the bottom so that those low-face impacts launch with more energy and less spin.

Drivers: McIlroy—TaylorMade Qi10 (Fujikura Ventus Black 6x), 9 degrees; Lowry—Srixon ZX5 MkII (Mitsubishi Diamana D+ White 70 TX), 8.5 degrees
Key driving stat: A bomb off the tee on the par-5 18th hole at TPC Louisiana from McIlroy during Sunday's final round, played using the foursomes (alternate shot) format, set up a birdie that forced a playoff. The Irish pals them won with a par on the first playoff hole to claim Rory's 25th PGA Tour title and Shane's third.
![](https://www.golfdigest.com/content/dam/images/golfdigest/fullset/hotlist-2024/drivers/Srixon ZX5 Mk II_D_HERO.jpg)
A larger looking profile with more of a flattened crown sets the tone for the most forgiving of the three models in this family. It should produce the highest launch of the three with a natural-draw weighting that works gently to mitigate your slice. This also makes it ideal for most average golfers who are looking for the best performance on off-center hits. The adjustable rear-sole weight lets your clubfitter dial in your ideal swing weight, especially helpful for those who want to play this driver at a slightly shorter length than the standard 45¼ inches.

![](https://www.golfdigest.com/content/dam/images/golfdigest/fullset/hotlist-2024/drivers/Titleist TSR3_D_HERO.jpg)
This is Titleist’s most popular model on tour. It's designed for players who have a consistent impact pattern around the center of the face. As a result, the face features a special variable-thickness pattern that emphasizes the best performance for center strikes. The TSR3 has a more compact size, but it also adds a movable weight that allows players to shift the center of gravity slightly. Yes, this helps somewhat with draw or fade preferences, but mostly it’s designed for lining up the CG with where a player is making impact. The result is better energy transfer.

Sean M. Haffey
Driver: TaylorMade Qi10 LS, 9 degrees
Key driving stat: Dunlap, a sophomore at Alabama playing in just his fourth PGA Tour event, ranked fourth in driving distance (averaging 320.5 yards) en route to joining a select group of amateurs to win PGA Tour events.
![](https://www.golfdigest.com/content/dam/images/golfdigest/fullset/hotlist-2024/drivers/Ping G430 MAX_D_HERO.jpg)
Before the introduction of Max 10K, this was the most stable head in the Ping lineup. Its difference lies in mixing that stability with a 25-gram movable-weight system to set ball flight at neutral, fade or draw. Aerodynamic ridges at the front of the crown (“turbulators”) help this big head glide through the air, and a thinner face adds energy. At the same time, less face curvature means low impacts launch with less spin for more distance.

Michael Reaves
Driver: Mizuno ST-X 230 (UST Mamiya LIN-Q M40X 7F5), 9.5 degrees
Key driving stat: In claiming his first PGA Tour title since the 2017 Barbasol Championship, Murray led the field in strokes gained/tee to green (5.075). He averaged 310.5 yards in driving distance and hit 66.7 percent of his fairways for the week.

Somewhat the fraternal twin of the ST-Z 230, the ST-X 230 shifts the weight saved from its carbon-composite crown and sole slightly toward the heel. While for some, that 14-gram back weight offers a bit of slice correction, its main function is to make the overall head easier to manipulate during the swing. That means it can appeal to players looking to work the ball. Still, its relatively deep position in the head improves overall stability on off-center hits. Just as important to ball speed are the high-strength titanium alloy in the face and a channel cut in the sole to improve the way the face deflects, particularly on lower impacts.
