SAN DIEGO — Heading into the final round of the 121st U.S. Open, there were eight golfers who were either in the lead or within three shots of the lead. Three were past major champions and five had yet to win a major title. All of them were going to feel the pressure of the toughest tournament in golf.
To help them handle that pressure, each golfer had to trust his swing and his equipment. Sunday at the U.S. Open is no time to second guess your gear.
Below is a complete list of the golf equipment Mackenzie Hughes, Russell Henley, Louis Oosthuizen, Rory McIlroy, Bryson DeChambeau, Scottie Scheffeler, Jon Rahm and Matthew Wolff had in their bag Sunday at Torrey Pines.
