Good pick up for TM. Even though he has struggled with injuries, he still moves the needle from a marketing standpoint. I am from the generation that started playing golf because of Tiger and will always be a fan. This has to be killer for Nike though, their face of the golf brand going to their ultimate nemesis in Adidas (at least until they sell).

Nike no longer makes golf clubs, he had to go somewhere, I believe he is still wearing his TW branded Nike clothing and shoes.

I knew that but it is like breaking up with your girlfriend and out of all the guys she could date after you, she has to choose your Wes Mantooth :) yes he is still under contract with Nike for apparel.

Jason Day is the same way.  In fact, there are tons of guys on tour that are sponsored by nike apparel and play other equipment.  Just like guys like Jordan Spieth and others wear Under Armor.  

 

Apparel deals and clubs deals are separate for the most part.

I still can't believe he is going to have TM irons in the bag. Of all the choices out there he considered TM irons the best for his game? Or was it who would pay the most to have him as a staffer? Really thought he might go back to Titleist or even go to Mizuno. The article didn't mention if he was going to TM as a investor/player? I can just hear the conversation on the first tee this week. Hey you, Jason, DJ, I own this company so technically you work for me now. If you know what's good for you, you'll let the boss win! Ha ha ha

The irons won't be in his bags for awhile yet.  I read that they are working on developing irons (blades) with him right now and they won't be ready for game action any time soon

I don't think it would have mattered today what irons he played.  As for the TM woods, it wasn't a good start.  Started out trying to hit draws and leaving them in the rough, then later in the round hooking into the rough and hazard.  He was absolutely lucky to only be +4.

Equipment can't fix alignment and swing path issues.
