The 25-year-old relies on the Titleist TSi2 driver to launch his drives quickly and accurately. It is designed to deliver maximum forgiveness and stability, which suits Im’s smooth and powerful swing. The two-time PGA Tour winner has it set at just 8 degrees of loft.

In addition, he also uses a Graphite Design Tour AD DI 7 X shaft, which is 45.25 inches long, to optimize his launch conditions and distance. For his fairway wood, he opts for the Titleist TS3, which is a more adjustable and versatile option than the TSi2, which has it at 15 degrees of loft.

The 2x Korn Ferry Tour also uses a Graphite Design Tour AD DI 8 X shaft, matches his driver shaft, and provides a consistent feel and performance. Sungjae Im carries a single hybrid in his bag, the Titleist 818H2, which he uses to replace his long irons. He has it at 19 degrees of loft.

The 2018-19 Rookie of the Year plays with a full set of Titleist T100 irons, from 3-iron to 9-iron. It is a classic forging iron that combines feel, precision, and playability. The slow look and responsiveness of these irons, help him shape his shots and hit his targets. He also uses True Temper Dynamic Gold x100 shafts, which are among the most popular and reliable shafts on tour.
