Justin Thomas won the 2025 RBC Heritage in dramatic fashion on Sunday, holing a 21-foot birdie putt to win the tournament in a playoff.
While it was his first win in three years, JT has been playing great golf so far this year, with five top-10 finishes.
One of the reasons for Thomas improved play is a swap to the new Titleist GT2 driver.
The GT2 is one of four drivers released by Titleist in 2025. The GT1 adds peak forgiveness, the GT2 maximizes stability, the GT3 aids left-right adjustability and the GT4 is for golfers who need a low-spin driver.
Per Golfweek equipment guru David Dusek from his original club review earlier this year,
For the past several generations of woods, Titleist has kept to the same naming conventions and made it very easy for golfers to get a good sense for what each driver is about. Clubs that end with a 2, like the recently released GT2, are designed to deliver a blend of stability and distance, while 3 clubs, such as the GT3, are made to blend left-and-right adjustability with enhanced ball speed. Clubs that get a 4 designation, such as the GT4, are low-spin offerings.
But Titleist didn't stop with drivers, also releases three new accompanying GT hybrids in 2025. Per Dusek, "Players seeking high-launching, forgiving hybrids with lightweight configurations (GT1); golfers who want maximum forgiveness and stability (GT2); and advanced players who value workability and a compact, iron-like design for shaping shots (GT3)."
Take a look at all the new Titleist GT drivers and hybrids to see which could be right for your game.

The GT1 features heavier weight in the front, causing the launch angle to decrease and ball speed to increase. The GT2 is slightly smaller and is the most forgiving of the three. Finally, the GT3 is the smallest of the bunch and crafted for the higher-level golfer. For a deeper dive into Titleist GT hybirds, check out David Dusek's full review.

PGA golfer Justin Thomas discusses recent 'ups and downs' as golf season's exciting homestretch approaches

Two years ago, Justin Thomas found himself struggling the most he ever had in his career. He was just a few months removed from his second major victory – a PGA Championship title at Southern Hills. But in the 2023 season, he didn't even make the FedEx Cup Playoffs, cracking just four Top 10s in 21 events. He missed the cut in all but one major that year – the one he didn't miss, the PGA Championship, he finished T65. He has since bounced back, finishing in 14th in the standings last year, and he enters this weekend in fifth, behind only Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Sepp Straka and Russell Henley. Majors have still been a struggle. Ever since winning the PGA Championship, he has missed seven of 13 cuts, and his other finishes have been T37, T53, T65, T8, T31, and T36. But Thomas took home the RBC Heritage in April, then followed up with a T2 finish at the Truist. He has five other top-10s to his season. "I think there are a lot of different ways you can kind of go about it, especially if you're fortunate to have a long career in any sport. In golf, you have plenty of ups and downs, and it's kind of how you use them, right?" Thomas told Fox News Digital in a recent interview. "How you grow on the good years and how you also grow on the bad years and how you can learn from them. So, I feel like I try to use the good and the bad from all my years on Tour and obviously have more than of them than others in particular seasons. But yeah, I feel like I am working on the right stuff, and I like how the season's gone. I wish I would've played a little better in some of the majors earlier in the season, but you know have a big stretch here to capitalize on some big events." Thomas, who founded his own WearSPF sunscreen, plans on being outside quite often for the remainder of the summer – even including the fall for some Ryder Cup action at Bethpage Black on Long Island. So, it seemed like a perfect time to collaborate on GarageBeer, owned by Travis and Jason Kelce (who just introduced BeerBed, which is exactly what it sounds like), to come out with a new sunscreen. Thomas has also suffered from melanoma, so he takes his SPF-wearing very seriously. "It's such a unique opportunity, and I felt like being able to partner with them, being outdoors, spending my life on the golf course, we obviously have plenty of opportunities as well of being outdoors. Whether it is just hanging out or whatnot during off-weeks and having that opportunity, it's good to collaborate with brands and guys like them who I admire and respect them and every kind of persona and image they have. So, it's cool it was a great and easy opportunity for them and me to get to learn more about." Thomas currently holds an automatic bid for the Ryder Cup – two years ago, he was on the outside looking in, but was selected by then-captain Zach Johnson. Before that, he also has one more major overseas and a shot at the $25 million FedEx Cup prize. Sunscreened out, Thomas is fine-tuning the little things to get back to the top of his game. "I'm doing a lot of things really well. It's not like I need to reinvent the wheel by any means, but I just feel like for me, if I could just drive the ball a little better, keep those bad days a little bit sharper and not let them get away from me, because I have a lot of belief and know that I can go low any given day. But it is just about keeping myself there and in contention. So just sharpening up a couple things here and there and try to have some fun."

2026 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S: More Power, More Driven Wheels, More Money

As reliably as the sun rises and sets, Porsche is fleshing out the 911 lineup. Following last year's facelift, Porsche just revealed the new all-wheel drive "S" variants, Carrera 4S coupe and Cabriolet, plus Targa 4S. The headline? More power and standard equipment than their predecessors, and a healthy price increase, too. Like the rear-drive Carrera S coupe and Cabriolet , the new all-wheel drive models get a 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six making 473 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque. The power increase is largely thanks to intercoolers from the 911 Turbo, Porsche says, and the horsepower figure matches the old Carrera GTS's, though torque is slightly lower. As with its rear-drive siblings, the only transmission available is an eight-speed PDK dual-clutch. Porsche is, so far, limiting the manual to just the purist-aimed Carrera T and GT3 . Photo by: Porsche Photo by: Porsche The new 4S models also get a standard Sports Exhaust and larger brakes from the old Carrera GTS model. As before, adaptive dampers, a rear limited-slip differential, and 20/21-inch wheels are standard, while sport suspension, rear-wheel steering, the Sport Chrono package, and carbon-ceramic brakes are optional. However, the Targa 4S gets rear-steer standard. Inside, there's more leather trim standard than before, and the rest of the upgrades Porsche gave the 911, including somewhat controversially, a digital gauge cluster. The coupe comes standard as a two-seater now, with 2+2 seating a no-cost option, and standard on the Cabriolet and Targa. Porsche says in the US, around half of all 911 "S" models are all-wheel drive, so these are an important addition to the lineup. And until now, for the face-lifted model, the entry-level all-wheel drive 911 was the hybrid Carrera 4 GTS. So, these cars usefully lower the barrier of entry. Not that they're cheap. Preliminary pricing for the 2026 Carrera 4S coupe is $156,450—over $16,000 more than the 2024 model, though Porsche stresses this is subject to change. There's more standard equipment and performance than before, but still, that's a large gap. The preliminary cost for the Carrera 4S Cabriolet is $169,650 while the Targa 4S is $171,350. Not that Porsche customers will balk at these prices. Demand for new 911s seems to far outstrip supply. More on the 911 Is the 911 Hybrid Still a True Porsche?

Titleist releases the GT1 3TOUR fairway wood, plus new Vokey Black Vapor wedges

Titleist releases the new GT1 3TOUR fairway wood and Vokey Black Vapor wedges. With the release today of the new GT1 3TOUR, Titleist has added another option to a crowded space in the golf equipment world: strong-lofted 3-woods. What makes this club especially interesting is that Titleist already released something similar this season, the GT280 mini driver. However, these clubs are made for different types of players: the low-profile, 14.5-degree GT1 3TOUR was designed for players who want a lower-spinning, flatter-flying option that can work off the tee and from the fairway while the larger, deep-faced, 13-degree GT280 is ideally suited for fast-swinging players who plan to use the club exclusively off the tee. We've seen other brands release strong-lofted 3-woods and mini drivers this season too, like the Callaway Elyte mini driver, Cobra DS-Adapt LS, Ping G440 LST, PXG Secret Weapon mini driver and TaylorMade r7 mini driver. If you are a moderate or slower-swinging player who struggles to get your 3-wood airborne, these clubs are probably not for you. However, as more and more brands enter this space, it's clear that manufacturers see strong-lofted fairway woods and mini drivers as a category that is here to stay. And for players and fitters, the more options that are available to golfers, the better.
