Tour Collin Morikawa TM Qi10 driver - 2025 US Open

pga43 · June 11

According to his caddy Joe, Collin has used the Qi10 driver the last 4 tournaments so not really a "change" this week

Welp, not sure if TM will be able to top the Qi10 in the foreseeable future, they can’t seem to keep Qi35s out there

What about that putter? Looks like a TP Soto with a round grip? Can't get a close look... Maybe GP's Tour Classic or Tradition.

Two words. Draw bias.

I am sure TM can make a driver with any bias (or not) that a pro requires.

The Qi 10s (except the Max) all have a fade bias. The Qi 35 LS is more square. The '35 Core and Max have a draw bias. Fleetwood is more of a draw player and prefers the '35. No. 1 is clearly a fade player and the '10 is for him. Interestingly Rory, historically has been known for his towering draws but would like to hit more fades. Right now, his biggest misses are right since his gamer was ruled non conforming. I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up back into a '35 of some kind eventually. After today he will have plenty of time to try to find some answers (including mentally!!!) as he is trying to shoot a Snowman.

Colin on the other hand is another case study. He is a fade player, but early on he went to the '35 and frankly had his best driver stats. Then somehow he switches back to the '10. Also switches his caddy (congrats to Michael Thornbjornsen for getting JJ Jac, likely the best player among the Caddies)

Why? ? It isn't making up for his bad putting. Don't look for him to be a winner again until he can find a way to read and make putts!

What are you saying? 🤷‍♂️

He is near the bottom in strokes gained off the tee so far this week. He has not won since 2023 and has yet to win a tournament with the Qi10 driver in the bag. His drove the ball better early this season with the Qi35 LS.

I’m betting the Qi35 driver was not the problem. He has been far from great with the Qi10.

Fair point. Seems like almost every pro uses the Dot head as opposed to the LS in either the Qi10 or Qi35 except Morikawa
