CROMWELL, Conn. — Connecticut has a reputation for being a quiet little part of the United States, but there were plenty of interesting things happening on the range before the start of the 2023 Travelers Championship. First, Collin Morikawa, Kurt Kitayama and several other TaylorMade staffers started testing the brand’s yet-to-be-released MG4 wedges. Then, Golfweek spotted a prototype Callaway Apex CB 4-iron in Adam Svensson’s bag on Tuesday evening. At the same time, several Titleist staffers are continuing the brand’s seeding process and testing the new T100, T150 and T200 irons.
Take a look at those clubs and many others spotted on the range and near the practice green at TPC River Highlands:
