3. NUMBERS DON'T LIE.

Author: Wall, Jonathan
Subjects: *GOLF tournaments, *GOLF clubs (Sporting goods), *GOLF, *TOES, *JOCKEYS
Abstract: According to Golf Magazine, TaylorMade's Qi10 drivers have been proven to significantly improve driving accuracy on the PGA Tour. Players such as Scottie Scheffler, Collin Morikawa, and Rory McIlroy have all seen their accuracy improve by over 16% since switching to the Qi10 drivers. Robotic testing has shown that the Qi10 drivers retain ball speeds across the entire face, with minimal distance loss on high toe misses. This means that even if a player misses the sweet spot, their shots will still have a minimal carry distance loss, resulting in tighter dispersions and lower scores. [Extracted from the article]
