Viktor Hovland: These Are the Clubs the Norwegian Uses to Storm the World's Elite

Viktor Hovland has been part of the absolute world elite for years. The Norwegian is known for his pure ball striking, calm swing and impressive length off the tee. Remarkably, Hovland does not always play the newest clubs. Some models have been in his bag for years, simply because they are the ones he trusts most.

Driver: Ping G440 LST (9°)

Off the tee, Hovland goes with the Ping G440 LST. This driver is known for its low spin and high ball speed, combining plenty of distance with control.

• Average distance: 300 to 315 meters
• Carry: roughly 285 to 295 meters

Fairway wood

For long shots from the fairway, Hovland uses a TaylorMade SIM Ti 3-wood (15°). This club gives him the ability to attack par 5s in two.

Utility iron

For long approaches he opts for a Titleist U505 utility iron.

• Average distance: 220 to 235 meters
