Posted by Austin Chen on 10 Jul 2019
We have decided to dig a little deeper into the winning drivers on the PGA Tour so far in 2019. There have been a total of 29 winning drivers if you count the 2 PGA events during the WGCs as well as the Zurich Team event. Rory McIlroy is the only repeat champion in 2019. Before we get started, which golf brand do you think is leading the PGA Tour in wins this season?

Just like last season, TaylorMade is the top Driver on Tour. They had 17 wins last year and already have 11 this season. The TaylorMade M5 driver leads with 4 wins on the season. Ping and Titliest finished with in a tie for 2nd with 6 wins a piece last season.This year both companies are currently trailing Callaway. The Callaway Epic Flash Sub Zero has 5 wins which is the 2nd most wins on the PGA Tour. 9 of the 29 drivers used to win in 2019 are not the current models of the brand.
