What armor is Lexi Thompson counting on in 2024?

Considering Miss Thompson is a Cobra Puma athlete, one would expect her bag be full of the brand’s equipment. However, there is a small portion of diversity in her bag. Starting from her driver that helps her make her impactful shots, the LPGA sensation makes use of the Cobra RadSpeed driver with a 9-degree loft and a Fujikura Ventus Black shaft.

Further, her carefully-picked set of clubs is what makes her a household name at just the age of 29. To make her wondrous shots even more perfect, she uses the Cobra S2 Forged (4-PW) irons, all fitted with Project X shafts. She puts her trust in her 3-irons in the Srixon Z U85 with Project X Rifle 5.0 shafts, however.

Her most recent addition to her strong picks is the Cobra King TEC Utility with a 17° loft and a Project X Rifle 5.0 shaft. She also deploys an interesting mix of fairway woods to further perfect her shots.

For the purpose of 3-woods, she chose the Cobra King LTD in Lexi Blue with a 12.5-degree loft and Graphite Design Tour AD GP 6S shafts. Her 5-woods are an occasional addition to her bag. She trusts the Cobra King LTD with an 18.5° loft and Graphite Design Tour AD DI 7S shaft.

What wedges and balls does Thompson choose?

The 11-time LPGA Tour winner gets all her wedges from Cobra King (this includes her 50 at 51, 55, and 59 degrees), all of which are fitted with True Temper Dynamic Gold S200 shafts.

Additionally, the 1X Major winner adds diversity to her bag in the form of her putter and golf balls. She chooses the Titleist’s Scotty Cameron GoLo N5 putter and the Maxfli Tour golf balls. Her partnership with Maxfli started earlier this year in January.

All in all, whether this careful selection will fetch the Cobra Puma star athlete a victory or not remains to be seen.
