Why Phil Mickelson may solve his left miss with a driver shaft switch at Wells Fargo

CHARLOTTE, North Carolina – Phil Mickelson has been using a Project X HZRDUS T1100 shaft for years, and in multiple different Callaway driver heads, but he showed up to the 2019 Wells Fargo Championship with an Aldila Rogue Black 130 MSI 60TX shaft in his Callaway Epic Flash Sub Zero driver. Mickelson, at 48 years old, has been gushing publicly about his newly-found clubhead speed with the driver, and he’s currently averaging 120.31 mph in 2019, placing him 19th on the PGA TOUR. By coupling his trusty Project X T1100 shaft with the Callaway Epic Flash Sub Zero driver head, however, he found his tee ball was hanging out to the left rather than turning over, according to Callaway TOUR rep Johnny Thompson. “He’s been playing that T1100 for a long time and it’s been a really good partner with some of the driver heads we’ve had in the past,� Thompson told PGATOUR.COM. “But with [the Epic Flash, he’s] kind of having more of a hanging miss. It wasn’t a slice; it just hung out there. It wouldn’t release.� While Mickelson is currently averaging 304 yards off the tee (T27) on measured drives in 2019, according to PGATOUR.COM stats, he’s ranked 204th on the PGA TOUR in driving accuracy percentage, and he’s ranked 213th – last on TOUR – in left-rough miss percentage, hitting it in the left rough off the tee 21.19% of the time. After a testing session last week at the Ely Callaway Performance Center in Carlsbad, California, Mickelson found that he was hitting the Aldila Rogue Black shaft on the center of the face more often, and “it was helping him square the clubface a little bit easier,� Thompson told PGATOUR.COM. The Aldila Rogue Black has a slightly softer profile than the Project X HZRDUS T1100 shaft he had been playing. “He’s really excited about some of the club head speed that he’s picked up,� Thompson told PGATOUR.COM. “High-launch, low-spin draws are kind of his thing right now, and that shaft definitely helps him square of the face and he’s definitely hammering it. He’s hitting it very hard.� By hitting more of a draw with the Aldila Rogue Black driver shaft, and hitting the center of the face more often, look for Mickelson to increase his fairways-hit percentage, and reduce his left-rough tendency off the tee. That is, if he does decide to put it in play come competition time on Thursday.

No. 14: Henrik StensonNo. 14: Henrik Stenson

THE OVERVIEW By Cameron Morfit, PGATOUR.COM Henrik Stenson is sneaky, whether he has a joy buzzer or a golf club in his hands. The moment you begin to forget about him, he wins. Last year’s example, at the end of an otherwise ho-hum season, saw the 2009 PLAYERS champ birdie four of his last six holes for a one-shot victory at the Wyndham Championship, the last full-field event before the FedExCup Playoffs. Stenson’s 29 birdies not only led the field, they put him six clear of the competition. He broke the tournament scoring record and became the PGA TOUR’s winningest male player from Sweden, surpassing Jesper Parnevik and Carl Pettersson. TOP 30 PLAYERS TO WATCH IN 2018: We’ll countdown our list with one new player each day in December. Click here for the published players. MORE: Top 30 explanation and schedule The year before that, of course, Stenson authored the first major win of his career, with a final-round 63 at the Open Championship. His Sunday duel with hard-luck runner-up Phil Mickelson won’t soon be forgotten. At 41, Stenson continues to be the consummate global player. He also won the European Tour’s Race to Dubai in ’16, and last season racked up just 15 starts on the PGA TOUR. Still, he can win anywhere, anytime. He’d had zero success at Sedgefield Country Club before winning the Wyndham, and like everyone else he had never played in Rio before capturing the silver medal in the 2016 Olympics. You say he’s never registered even a top-10 finish at the Masters, his best a T14 in 2014? You say he hasn’t distinguished himself at Shinnecock Hills or Carnoustie, which will host the U.S. Open and Open Championship, respectively, in 2018? None of that matters. When he’s on, he can win anywhere, anytime. BY THE NUMBERS How Henrik Stenson ranked in Strokes Gained statistics during his last full season on the PGA TOUR. FEDEXCUP Current 2017-18 position: 25th Playoff appearances: 7 TOUR Championship appearances: 2 Best result: Stenson won the 2013 FedExCup title INSIGHTS FROM THE INSIDERS PGATOUR.COM’s Insiders offer their expert views on what to expect from Henrik Stenson in 2018. TOUR INSIDER by Ben Everill You can never sleep on this Swede. Opened last year with two top 10s in his first three TOUR starts, promptly missed five out of six cuts and then had five consecutive top 20s, including a win at the Wyndham Championship. Love the way he sends that 3-wood way out there with such accuracy and backs it up with a stellar approach game. We may not see him as often as others, but he’s always top value. Click here to follow Ben on Twitter FANTASY INSIDER by Rob Bolton Even if he could remain healthy, it wouldn’t change our approach. A rib injury thwarted starts in the last two stops on the European Tour this fall, and he’s still walking around with a torn meniscus in his right knee, but the Swede maintains a light schedule abroad, so he’s best reserved as a complement in draft leagues. Weekly gamers shouldn’t hesitate, however, even as his 42nd birthday looms on the Thursday of the 2018 Masters. Click here to follow Rob on Twitter EQUIPMENT INSIDER by Jonathan Wall Callaway’s GBB Epic driver was one of the few new additions to Stenson’s bag this year. The rest of his setup remained the same over the last 12 months. Endo Forged Legacy Black irons are notable as they are only available in Asia.  Click here to follow Jonathan on Twitter STYLE INSIDER by Greg Monteforte Stenson remains one of the best examples of how golf apparel should fit. Everything from the length of his sleeves to the length of his pants is dialed in to perfection. Expect Stenson to push the latest fashion trends with bold geometric prints and stylish color palettes for the season. Click here to follow Greg on Twitter
