Robert MacIntyre seems to love a great storyline. After winning his first PGA Tour title at the RBC Canadian Open with his dad on his bag earlier this summer, the 27-year-old Scotsman continued his flair for the dramatic with a walk-off win at the Scottish Open. With that victory, MacIntyre became the first Scot to win his home title since Colin Montgomerie in 1999.


This is MacIntyre’s second PGA Tour win of the season and of his career. Not much has changed in his winning bag besides one new addition to his long game.

Driver: Titleist TSR2

Shaft: Graphite Design Tour AD DI 7X

MacIntyre stays with a Titleist TSR2 driver at the top of his bag. He plays a 9 degree head and has it set at D4 in his SureFit hosel, which adds .75 degrees of loft while maintaining the standard lie. He continues to play it with a Graphite Design Tour AD DI 7X shaft in it. MacIntyre wasn’t the longest player at the Scottish Open, but still had plenty of length. He averaged 309.1 yards off the tee, which was 26th best in the field. As for accuracy, he was solid off the tee, finding 32 of 52 fairways. His 61.54 percent hit rate was tied for 21st best in the tournament. That combination helped MacIntyre gain 2.698 strokes on the field off the tee, which was 9th best overall.

3-wood: Titleist Prototype

Shaft: Graphite Design Tour AD DI 8 X

The only difference between MacIntyre’s bag from his RBC Canadian Open win and his win at the Scottish Open comes in his 3-wood, where he switched out a Cobra Aerojet LS for a Titleist prototype.

Hybrid: TaylorMade Stealth 2 Rescue

Shaft: Graphite Design Tour AD DI 105X

MacIntyre pairs his 3-wood with a 19 degree TaylorMade Stealth 2 Rescue, and plays it with a Graphite Design Tour AD DI 105X shaft in it. This gives him another longer option to attack greens with, but one with more loft, higher flight and more stopping power. The Stealth 2 core model gives MacIntyre the best of both worlds, still plenty of ball speed but with a touch more forgiveness than using the lower-spinning Stealth 2 Plus.

Irons: Titleist 620 CB (4-9)

Shafts: True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100

Moving to MacIntyre’s irons, as he continues to play Titleist 620 CB’s for his 4-9 irons, and they were the stars of his win at the Genesis Scottish Open, including perhaps the greatest shot of the tournament with his 2nd on the par 5 16th. After finding the fescue to the right off the tee, MacIntyre would hit a 247 yard 7-iron to nearly 6 feet, which set up an eagle that tied him for the lead with two holes to play. Overall, MacIntyre found 56 of 72 greens in regulation, which was tied for 18th best, but when he did find the green in regulation, he seemingly had great looks for birdie each time, which helped him gain 5.307 strokes on the field on his approach to green, which was 6th best in the field.

Wedges: Titleist Vokey Design SM10 (46-10F), SM9 (50-08F, 56-10S), WedgeWorks (60-08K)

Wedges: Titleist Vokey Design SM10 (46-10F), SM9 (50-08F, 56-10S), WedgeWorks (60-08K)

MacIntyre stays with Titleist for his wedges, playing a mixture of Vokey’s. He goes with an SM10 46 degree rather than a traditional pitching wedge, then goes back a generation for his gap and sand wedge, playing the Vokey SM9’s for each. For his lob wedge, he stays with Vokey, but goes with a WedgeWorks 60 degree. While his wedges played a pivotal role in his Approach to Green performance, including a clutch pitching wedge on 18 that set up the eventual tournament winning birdie, they were the weakest part of his win this weekend. He finished 35th in Strokes Gained Around the Green, gaining 0.695 strokes on the field with his short game, which is still solid, just not as strong as the rest of his bag.

Putter: TaylorMade Spider Tour

SuperStroke Zenergy Pistol

MacIntyre’s putter was the star of his first victory, as he led the RBC Canadian Open in Strokes Gained Putting. While he didn’t lead the Scottish Open in that category, he was still excellent. He made 110 feet of putts, which was 20th best, averaged 1.68 putts per green in regulation, which was 9th best, and finished 16th in the field in Strokes Gained Putting, gaining 4.128 strokes on the field from the putting surface.
