Brian Harman, the former Pepperdine star, had the high-definition steady cams following him at the ongoing PLAYERS Championship. Although the winner of the 2023 Open Championship did not have a great first round in the tournament, he quickly took up the pace by scoring a 7 under 64. He took back-to-back birdies in the first and second holes, followed by one in the third and fifth. Harman even scored an ace in the 16th hole at the TOC Sawgrass. While playing the outward nine, Harman made another round of consecutive birdies in the second, third, and fourth holes.
He even threatened the TPC Sawgrass course record, settling for an eight-under 64! Before bagging the runner-up position in the US Open 2017, he spoke to Titleist Tour Rep Jim Curran and got his set of Titleist irons. Ever since then, Curran only checks the grips on the lofts every month, and Harman does the rest!

Brian Harman’s top-list club that he has in his bag is the Titleist TSi2 at 9 degrees. He even tried out the Titleist TSi3, but the TSi2 suited him better as he is among the shorter hitters. It pretty much balances out the distance with forgiveness and consistency, which makes it one of the best golf drivers!
