Introducing the New Titleist TS Hybrids – Scoring Clubs with Titleist Speed

Jin Young Ko embraces the trophy after winning the 2019 Evian Championship.

Born from the Titleist Speed Project, the new Titleist TS hybrids represent a new standard in hybrid performance — combining the explosive speed and distance of TS metalwoods with the advanced technology that’s made Titleist the most played hybrids on the PGA Tour.

For dedicated golfers –and Titleist Golf Club R&D engineers –hybrids are considered scoring clubs, not rescue clubs. The new TS2 and TS3 hybrids, benefitting from the innovations of the Titleist Speed Chassis, allow players to replace their long irons with even more speed, launch and precision. Like their driver and fairway counterparts, TS hybrids bring more speed to golfers through two distinct designs: 

  • The tremendously forgiving TS2 hybrids maximize performance for players who have a sweeping delivery to the ball –delivering high launch and easy distance. The larger profile is designed for players who prefer the look of a fairway metal.
  • The fast-launching TS3 hybrids produce outstanding distance and control for players who hit down on the ball – offering mid launch, precise distance and iron-like control through the adjustable Magnetic SureFit CG. The compact, square toe shape is designed for players who want more of an iron look. 

Both models feature Titleist’s patented SureFit hosel with 16 independent loft and lie settings to create a more consistent and optimized ball flight through precision fitting.

“Pretty much every golfer we’ve had test a TS hybrid has had the same reaction — these things just go,” said Josh Talge, Vice President, Titleist Golf Club Marketing. “When it comes to the world of golf clubs, hybrids don’t always generate the type of excitement you see with other categories. But with TS hybrids, our R&D team has developed a hybrid that players will start thinking about as their go-to club. A club they just can’t wait to hit.”
 

PERFORMANCE & TECHNOLOGY

The improved performance of TS hybrids is driven by the innovative Titleist Speed Chassis, featuring technologies originally developed for TS drivers and fairways and now optimized for each hybrid shape:

  • Thinner, faster face. The fastest hybrid face Titleist has ever made (16 percent thinner than prior generation 818 hybrids) –delivers faster ball speeds and increased forgiveness.
  • Optimized Weight Distribution. Refined crown and face thicknesses create a lower CG for higher launch and lower spin. The resulting MOI is up to 10 percent higher on average than 818, creating a powerful combination of speed and stability.

“Titleist hybrids were already by far the industry leader for hybrid performance, speed and distance — and now we’ve taken that to another level with these TS models,” said Stephanie Luttrell, Director of Metalwoods Development, Titleist Golf Club R&D. “By taking everything we learned in developing TS drivers and fairways and implementing those technologies into our hybrid platform, we’ve been able to improve our speed and distance performance while maintaining the incredible playability that makes these hybrids scoring clubs –that easy, consistent distance that launches high and lands soft, closer to the hole.”
 

TS HYBRIDS ON TOUR

Titleist has been the most played hybrid on the PGA Tour since 2014 and continues to be the field favorite week in and week out.

TS hybrids made their PGA Tour debut at the Memorial Tournament, where Charley Hoffman (TS3 17º) and Robert Streb (TS3 21º) were among those who put TS hybrids immediately in play. Ian Poulter and Charles Howell III added new TS2 21ºmodels to their bags for the U.S. Open, while Patton Kizzire gamed a TS3 19º, as players around the world continue to switch into the new TS2 and TS3 models.
