Less than 72 hours after Scottie Scheffler won his second PGA Tour event, the 2022 Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill, TaylorMade has announced that the Texan has signed an endorsement deal with the company.
The financial details of the multi-year deal with were not made available.
Last week in Orlando, Scheffler used an 8-degree TaylorMade Stealth Plus+ driver, along with a set of TaylorMade P-7TW irons (5-PW). According to TaylorMade, those clubs will remain in Scheffler’s bag (which will now be a TaylorMade staff bag), and a TaylorMade fairway wood is expected to be added soon.
After the Ryder Cup, TaylorMade fitters went to Texas and worked with Scheffler and introduced him to the company’s 2022 driver, the carbon-faced Stealth Plus+. According to the company, during that fitting, Scheffler’s ball speed increased to 177.4 mph with Stealth Plus+, a 3 mph increase from the 174 mph ball speed he was creating with his previous driver.
Scheffler, who had been an equipment “free agent,” joins a TaylorMade staff that also includes Rory McIlroy, Dustin Johnson, Collin Morikawa, Matthew Wolff and Tiger Woods.
