For many professional golfers, a new year means a new contract, and that’s the case for three notable professional golfers who are now signed to Cleveland-Srixon for 2017.

J.J. Spaun, formerly a Nike equipment staffer, is a PGA Tour player who graduated from the Web.com Tour last year and won the 2016 Web.com News Sentinel Open.

Daniel McCarthy was the leading money on the MacKenzie Tour in 2016 and is now a Web.com Tour pro.

Joel Salter, who splits time between the European Tour and the Challenge Tour.

Solidifying its stable of golfers for 2017, Srixon has also re-signed 2008 and 2016 Team USA Ryder Cup member J.B. Holmes, Shane Lowry, Soren Kjeldsen, Rod Pampling, Minjee Lee and Will Wilcox.

According to the company, each of the new and re-signed players “will play a Srixon Z-STAR Series golf ball and Cleveland Golf RTX Series wedges, in addition to using a Srixon staff bag.”

  The woods are fine. Why would a OEM with SRIXONS caliber make outstanding irons and sub par woods? That is a poor business model and not one SRIXON is building a future on.

It would also be nice to see if SOMEONE on their staff would play the new woods – not just the headcovers to hide their TM clubs..

    Ok, but maybe one of their staffers that people have actually heard of – like Hideki, Keegan, or GMac.

        You did a lot of research for nothing. Turn on the TV, look at Hideki’s driver, not his headcover.

        I’m saying he’s still wrong. Hideki does not play a Srixon driver. Maybe the WITB thread says so, but if you look at your TV of him in Hawaii, you’ll see he’s not.

GolfWRX is on site for the second major of 2026: The PGA Championship from Aronimink in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.

The tournament’s location, just outside Philadelphia, and its status as a major championship mean GolfWRXers are in for a treat: WITBs from a strong field, custom gear celebrating the PGA Championship, and the rich culture of the City of Brotherly Love — we have noted a relative absence of cheesesteak-themed items thus far this week, but most of the rest of the usual suspects are well represented.
