After a clutch chip, Matt Fitzpatrick defeated Rory McIlroy in a playoff on the Jumeirah Golf Estates ground course to catch PD World Tournament Championshiphis 10th win on the European circuit.
The win also ended a two-year winless drought for the 2022 US Open and four-time Ryder Cup winner.
It’s the first win for Fitzpatrick since he switched from his old player, a Bettinardi DASS BB1 Flow blade, to a new Bettinardi DASS BB48 Proto Mallet.
It’s quite a radical change for Fitzpatrick, who had been using the BB1 ​​blade for most of the past four years. including its progress to Brookline in 2022. Fitzpatrick is an extremely hard switcher when it comes to gear, as evidenced by his switch to the Ping S55 irons earlier this year from the newer Blueprint S.
The new hammer features the unique C-Groove face that Fitzpatrick has used throughout his professional career and popularized by Yes! Golf. Fitzpatrick used a Yes! Golf Tracy II from its youth days to 2020 when he switched to BB1 with the same C-Groove face.

Title Vokey SM10 Raw Custom Wedge
For every shot, every lie, every course, there’s a matchup fit for your swing. Finding the right grind to suit your swing and playing conditions will give you the best pitch interaction, contact and impact performance. Master golfer Bob Vokey has spent decades creating, developing and refining his proven tournament skills to suit players of all skill levels. Anyone can make a wedge, but it takes a craftsman to turn a piece of high-performance technology into an instrument of creative control. Bob’s six tournament-proven grips are designed to deliver maximum creativity, versatility and durability, all meticulously developed over years of working with the world’s best players. PROGRESSIVE CENTER OF GRAVITY The SM9 features a progressive center of gravity (CG) throughout the loft, which optimizes flight, accuracy and ball forgiveness. By using narrow top lines and different tube lengths, Vokey’s research and development team has raised the CG height to higher lofts, which promotes a lower and more controlled flight. The CG is also forward of the face, resulting in increased MOI, incredible feel and a clubface that just wants to square up at impact. SPIN MILLED GROOVES SM9’s patented Spin Milled Grooves are meticulously engineered through a new cutting process to maximize spin and durability. The process begins by cutting the face perfectly flat with a high-speed saw. Then each groove is cut individually based on the loft and finish; low lofts (46°-54°) are designed with narrower, deeper grooves, while higher lofts (56°-62°) have wider, shallower grooves. Micro-grooves are individually cut between channels, which maximize centrifugation in fractional firing. A special heat treatment is applied to the impact area, which doubles the durability of the groove without affecting the feel, making it the most durable golf groove. The process is only complete when each Vokey wedge is 100% inspected for maximum quality and performance.
