Tiger Woods and the Swoosh – an iconic duo that helped changed the sport of golf forever – are no longer. After a 27-year partnership, Woods and Nike Golf officially parted ways, as confirmed in a post to Woods’ social media platforms on January 8, 2024.

Actually, as far as golf clubs and golf balls go, Woods’ equipment agreement with Nike Golf ended in 2016, when Nike’s golf division got out of the hard goods industry entirely. Although he was an equipment free agent for a brief period of time, Woods then signed a deal in 2017 with TaylorMade Golf to play its equipment, and Woods continues to be a TaylorMade equipment staffer today.
That being said, Woods and the Swoosh logo had quite a run together in the golf equipment world, which is cause for celebration.
In honor of Woods and Nike’s 27 year partnership, here are GolfWRX.com’s favorite 27 in-hand equipment photos, in no particular order, from 2011-2017.

Three Swing Challenge: Testing the Titleist Vokey WedgeWorks A+ grind
![](https://www.golfwrx.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Blank-1014-x-768.png)
The first wedge has made its way to the Three Swing Challenge! This week we have the WedgeWorks A+ grind that was recently released by Vokey. BK is looking for a new 60-degree wedge, and this could be a contender.
Why three swings?
Many years ago, the legendary Barney Adams, founder of Adams Golf told us this:
“My formula as a fitter was three shots only. I discounted No. 1 just because it was the first one, counted 100 percent of No. 2 and discounted No. 3 because the player was starting to adjust.”

Collin Morikawa’s pre-Open equipment adjustments
![](https://www.golfwrx.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/MorikawaP790-1.jpg)
Editor’s note: This is an excerpt from a piece our Andrew Tursky originally wrote for PGATour.com’s Equipment Report. Head over there for the full article.
Three years later, Morikawa has once again changed his irons to deal with the unique Scottish turf.
Morikawa has been using TaylorMade P730 blade short irons (7-PW), P7MC mid irons (5-6) and a TaylorMade “Proto” 4-iron with a cavity-back construction this year.
However, he switched into a new set of TaylorMade P7CB irons (5-PW) before finishing T4 at last week’s Genesis Scottish Open, to go along with his familiar “Proto” 4-iron. TaylorMade’s P7CB irons are the finalized versions of the “Proto” 4-iron that Morikawa has been using, except they remain unreleased to retail.
According to TaylorMade, Morikawa switched into a full set of the new P7CB irons to aid with turf interaction, just like he did prior to his 2021 Open victory.
Morikawa is honing in on his winning formula overseas.
Morikawa also has switched from his usual TaylorMade Qi10 5-wood to a lower-launching TaylorMade P790 3-iron equipped with a Project X HZRDUS 105 Hybrid shaft. The loft of the club has been bent down to 19 degrees.
TaylorMade says that Morikawa switched into the new driving iron In order to “have an option to hit something lower that will roll out in the fairways.”

My Method 001 putter is the best putter I’ve ever used. The Vapor Pro Combo irons are as good as any iron I’ve ever played. They are not distance irons. They are precision irons that feel great. The VR Pro wedges are as good as any wedge I’ve used in 50 years of playing the game. I still game them all as well as a Vapor Fly driver, which isn’t the longest, but I hit fairways with it and manage to shoot around par. Nike made great clubs. No wonder former Hogan players signed with them. How many majors were won with Nike clubs?

Nike had a couple of decent clubs, however in general their golf equipment was not good to say the least.I won’t be missing any of their equipment. 😉
