Leona Maguire is currently the 30th best as per the Rolex Women’s World Golf Ranking list. And rightly so! She made history by winning her second LPGA event at the 2022 Drive-On Championship, becoming the first Irishwoman to win on the Tour. Since then, the golf pro has been looking for her third win, and this week she may just find it!
Maguire has shown tremendous skill at the T-Mobile Match Play this week, making her way to the final! In a few hours, she will square off against Nelly Korda to try and grab her win. While, of course, going head-to-head with world No. 1, the Irishwoman has help—in the form of her Ping-stuff bag!

Leona Maguire uses the Ping G430 LST driver, which has a loft of 10.5 degrees, which helps her hit the bombs right off the tee and try to find the greens. The driver, who boasts distance and accuracy, is equipped with a Ping Tour shaft and retails for $579.99.

For her woods, Maguire’s pick is the Ping G430 Max Fairway Wood in three different lofts for getting the most out of the clubs on the course. One is 14.5 degrees, the other 17.5 degrees, and the third 23.5 degrees. They are further equipped with Mitsubishi Tensei Orange 65 S shafts.
For her irons, Leona Maguire turns to Ping’s i210 irons, from the 5 iron through the gap wedge (UW). The KBS Tour TGI 80 shafts equip them, enhancing control and accuracy with each swing. She switches out her 5 and 6 irons with the Ping G425 hybrids (26 degrees and 30 degrees), depending on what the event requires.

Maguire’s go-to clubs for the greens
For her wedges, Leona Maguire trusts the Titleist Vokey SM7 in both the 55- and 60-degree lofts. And while for them she strayed away from her go-to brand, a.k.a. Ping, for her arguably most important club, her putter, she again turns to them.
The golf pro uses the Ping Vault 2.0 Ketsch putters in 3.5 and 20-degree lofts. Her putter is made with a machined 6061 aerospace-grade aluminum body that gives it maximum stability and forgiveness while trying to hole the ball, for which she uses the Titleist Pro V1.
