“Game-changing.” Well, that is exactly what Sahith Theegala dubbed one of his clubs, more specifically his driver, when it got fitted with the right head, shaft, and length. The result? He won the 2023 Fortinet Championship, breaking his winless PGA Tour curse. However, following his first win, the golfer has only had a mixed bag of results, despite boasting a bag full of exquisite equipment.

Although the 26-year-old’s skills do need to be complimented properly owing to the four top-10 finishes he dished out in 2024, one cannot discount the help he has received on the greens. Interestingly, for the kind of support he requires, Theegala has, since a long time ago, turned to Ping for the same.

Sahith Theegala’s choice of golf gear

The athlete, after entering the Jay Monahan-led circuit in 2022, had signed an exclusive deal with Ping. Fascinatingly, he has held true to his partner brand to this day, as he rose in rankings to become No. 15 on the Official World Golf Rankings. Moreover, it appears he won’t be stopping himself from rising anytime soon, all thanks to the special set of tools in his bag.

For his choice of drivers, Theegala turns to the PING G430 LST Driver, which is lofted at 10.5 degrees. What’s more, the equipment which is attached to the Project X Gen 4 Hzrdus Black 60g 6.5 shaft and marked at $579.99 provides a lot of clubhead speed. Meanwhile, the 440-cc LST helps accelerate ball speed while keeping reduced spin. Truly a club that changed the game for the golfer.
