This ‘Outdated’ Hybrid Is Still in 5 Tour Bags
“Outdated” might be a bit strong, but this is the PGA Tour we’re talking about, so we’re rolling with it. Most pros regularly switch out their clubs to take advantage of the latest spin, launch, and accuracy tech. But while digging into which hybrids are still in play, I found five players still gaming the Titleist TSR2. I’ve got one of these Titleist TSR2 hybrids in my bag, too. It’s always struck me as the perfect blend of amateur-friendly and pro-level performance.
The club
The Titleist TSR2 Hybrid was designed for golfers who want long-distance performance with a high launch, forgiveness, and a refined, confidence-inspiring look.
Key features include:
Longer blade length for more face flex, higher ball speed, and added forgiveness. Deep and low center of gravity (CG) that promotes fast, easy launch without sacrificing control. Sole relief pockets to help the club move cleanly through rough or tight lies. SureFit hosel adjustability gives players more control over loft and lie.Who’s using it?
Golf professionals change out their bags depending on the tournament they are playing and the course setup. However, these five golfers have been seen with the TSR2 in their bags within the last few months.
Garrick Higgo had it in the bag when he won the Corales Punta Cana Championship.

In our 2024 Most Wanted Hybrid test, the TSR2 ranked:
12th overall 12th in accuracy 7th in distance 12th in forgivenessIt wasn’t at the top of the leaderboard, but it remained competitive. A year earlier, in 2023, the TSR2 finished 6th overall, with strong distance numbers and top ratings for sound, looks, and likelihood of purchase. With the 2025 Best Hybrid Golf Test still in the works, we don’t have results on the GT2 hybrid performance yet.
Final thoughts
If you are looking for a new (to you) hybrid to add to the bag and want something with tour-proven performance, the Titleist TSR2 may not be a bad option. Used models are on the market for around $150 or less, depending on the condition.
