Golf clubs are the most important aspect to any professional's golf bag and, when the world's best find clubs they like, they will often keep them in the set-ups for significant amounts of time.

In this piece, we've looked through every winning what's in the bag from the 2026 PGA Tour season and picked out the oldest clubs to feature.
Some of these models are over a decade old, yet they're still being used by these champions to this very day, and you can check out the full list below.
Matt Fitzpatrick - Ping S55 Irons (2013)
Matt Fitzpatrick has three wins on the PGA Tour in 2026, with the Englishman using a set of Ping S55 irons that were released back in 2013.
Not only that, but he pairs them with Ping i210s, which were released in 2018, with both models possessing Project X LZ 6.5 shafts.
"They work for me, that's the long and short of it," Fitzpatrick stated in an interview with Golf Monthly. "I've had success with them in the past and I know what I'm getting with them."
Jacob Bridgeman - TaylorMade TP UDI Driving Iron (2014)
Jacob Bridgeman's victory came at the Genesis Invitational, where the American held off Rory McIlroy and Kurt Kitayama to secure his maiden PGA Tour title.
A TaylorMade staffer, the club that stood out in his bag was the TaylorMade TP UDI driving iron, a model that was released in 2014 and has been in-and-out of his set-up depending on course conditions.
It has the same Project X 6.5 shafts as his P770 5-iron and P7CB 6-iron to 9-iron.
Brandt Snedeker - TaylorMade M2 Driver (2017)
At the ONEflight Myrtle Beach Classic, Brandt Snedeker rolled back the years to claim his first victory since 2018, securing the win by a single stroke.
Interestingly, he did it with a TaylorMade M2 driver in the bag from 2017, with was introduced to the set-up after being in his garage for a number of years.
Speaking at the PGA Championship, the American stated: "I guess I’m old school, when I find a driver I like I always kind of stick with it. I’d been struggling with my driver, don’t really hit it far anymore, but felt like I had a couple misses that weren’t that bad but ended up in bad spots.
"I took that one and tested it, it’s a little shorter than the one I was playing ball-speed wise, but the dispersion is so much better. I thought I could swing freely with it."
Viktor Hovland - Ping Glide 2.0 Wedge (2017)
Viktor Hovland claimed victory at the Travelers Championship by defeating Scottie Scheffler in a Monday playoff.
The Ryder Cup star did so by using a Ping Glide 2.0 lob wedge from 2017, as well as Ping i210 irons from 2018.
A Ping staffer, Hovland has had this iron and wedge set-up in play for some time, with it yielding multiple successes on both the PGA Tour and DP World Tour.
Scottie Scheffler - Srixon ZU85 Driving Iron (2018)
For quite some time, Scottie Scheffler has had the Srixon ZU85 driving iron in his bag, with it involved in all of his wins on the PGA Tour.
At The American Express, the 3-iron was in play, as he went round in 27-under, four shots clear of four players.
Along with the ZU85 driving iron, Scheffler still has the Titleist Vokey SM8 wedges in the bag, which were released in 2020.
Russell Henley - Titleist TS3 Fairway Wood (2018)
Russell Henley possesses one of the oldest bags on the PGA Tour, with his Titleist TS3 from 2018 the main standout.
Along with the club, which has a Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black 80 TX shaft, there's a TSi3 driver and TSi2 hybrid from 2020, as well as Titleist T100 irons from 2019.
He may have an older bag, but the American did modernize his set-up slightly at the Charles Schwab Challenge, introducing a Titleist GTS3 7-wood, one of the best fairway woods on the market.
Aaron Rai - TaylorMade M6 Driver (2019)
Arguably the biggest win for older equipment came at the PGA Championship, where Aaron Rai secured a maiden Major win with the TaylorMade M6 in the bag.
Released in 2019, the Englishman pairs it with a Aldila Synergy Blue 70 TX shaft and, at The Open Championship, Rai explained why it's still in the bag, stating: "The biggest thing for me is the consistency.
"There was a period of driver where it had a nice balance between distance, but it definitely had a little bit of forgiveness. I think since 2021 TaylorMade have gone into the carbon faces, which have felt a little bit difficult for me to adjust to.
"When I've tried other brands and they have the same titanium face as the M6, they don't have the Twist Face technology, which then changes my misses and what I expect to happen with the ball.
"I really like the driver, but it's almost like a necessity to stick with it just with where equipment has gone over the past few years. Yeah, hopefully I can stick with it until something I feel more comfortable with comes along."
Akshay Bhatia - Callaway Rogue ST Driver (2022)
The Callaway Rogue ST has been in play for all of Akshay Bhatia's victories on the PGA Tour, with the American using it to perfect effect to claim the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
Possessing a Fujikura Ventus Black 7 X shaft, Bhatia has trialed other drivers previously, including the Callaway Quantum Triple Diamond Max, but it hasn't done enough to replace his current gamer.
Released in 2022, it appears it'll take something special to replace Bhatia's Rogue ST.
