Let’s face it. There is some novelty in the game of golf. You have to laugh and smile sometimes and chances are you own a head cover, ball marker or hat that shows off the edgier side of the game. When we started our 2025 Best Golf Glove testing, the TravisMathew Between the Lines 2.0 — with “Birdie” written across the middle finger and “Cash Please” embossed into the palm — hardly looked like it would be a serious contender for the top spot. Then it almost won.

TravisMathew Between the Lines 2.0

In our 2025 Most Wanted Golf Glove testing, the TravisMathew Between the Lines 2.0 captured Best Premium Glove honors and finished fourth overall out of more than 60 gloves tested.

It scored an impressive 9.7 rating, just a fraction behind some of the biggest names in the industry such as PXG, PING and FootJoy.

Where it shines

The TravisMathew Between the Lines 2.0 scored high across all of our testing categories.

Fit: A near-perfect 98-percent fit rating with testers praising how comfortably and naturally it wrapped the hand. Comfort: Despite its bold design, it delivered a strong 94.5-percent comfort score. Feel and Grip: The premium Cabretta leather provided testers with an excellent feel and a reliable grip. Golfers felt like they had full confidence throughout the swing.

Beyond the performance numbers, testers consistently noted that the glove felt lightweight, flexible and breathable. The Between the Lines 2.0 glove features finger perforations and a soft, high-quality leather construction. One tester summed it up perfectly:

“It might look playful, but it fits and performs like a tour-level glove.”

It is priced in the premium range but for golfers who appreciate performance with personality, it is worth every penny.

Final thoughts

You know what they say: You can’t judge a glove by its middle finger. The TravisMathew Between the Lines 2.0 might look like it is all about flipping the bird but underneath the humor is a serious performer.

It held its own against some of the best gloves in golf, proving that a little fun and a lot of performance can coexist. If you’re looking for a glove that makes a statement and backs it up, this one is worth a look.
