BK’s Breakdowns: Russell Henley’s winning WITB from the 2026 Charles Schwab Challenge
Russell made a massive charge on the last 3 holes of the 2026 Charles Schwab Challenge this weekend to force a playoff with Eric Cole. Henley drained another putt on the first playoff hole to win his 6th PGA Tour event! While he is a Titleist staff member, his WITB is far from a simple blend of the latest gear. He mixes brand new with some very old clubs in order to play his best.

Titleist GTS driver fitting: 10 handicap vs. +4 handicap
What happens when a 10 handicap and a +4 handicap go through a full driver fitting at one of the most advanced golf performance centers in the world? Brian Knudson and Andrew Von Lossow headed to the Titleist Performance Institute in Oceanside, California, to find out.
Both players go through a complete Titleist GTS driver fitting with the Titleist fitting team to see how swing speed, launch conditions, strike location, shaft profile, and head setup can completely change performance off the tee. Even though the golfers have very different games, the fitting process reveals just how important proper equipment can be for maximizing distance, tightening dispersion, and improving consistency.
You will see how Titleist fitters analyze every part of the driver setup including loft, weighting, shaft selection, and head model to build a driver specifically for each player’s swing. While the skill levels, club head speeds, and desired outcomes are different both players show how deep and versatile the new Titleist GTS driver lineup is.

Notes on video:
• M3 – 10.5º – weights forward (and CG forward) for lower spin
• Twist Face – tighter spin rate cluster between toe and heel hits
• “I don’t hit in the middle of the face!”. “CLINK” – 123/186mph 2100rpm!
• “Right miss is okay, left miss no!”
• “Lifty” to outside in backswing… try to keep it low back and wide thru.
• “Subtle differences in golf swing.”
• Arched left wrist at top for closed/square clubface at impact.
• Speed & Control. No full out swing -85-90% of max speed.
• Cutting ball last 2 years… before drawing ball!
• Can’t overdo it… open chest to cover ball especially with irons.
• Swing at 8:40 — 121/180/2108 … smash factor = 1.48 wow!!!
• Swing at 12:07 with vicious left knee flexing up through impact!!!
• Swing at 14:00 – Augusta 18th hole… 120/179/2725rpm for a big fade and likely an open face high toe hit too … 🙂

Ooops… got the last point wrong where I said “… a big fade and likely an open face high toe hit…”.
Here’s the correction taken from a previous WRX/JD/TM article:
““Twist Face” is TaylorMade’s new design that makes the high-toe area of the face more open and more lofted, and the low heel portion more shut and lower lofted. The goal here is to reduce the slice off the low heel and reduce the hook off the high toe. For Dustin, he seemed most excited to get relief on his high-toe miss.”
So it was a “slice off the low heel” that we saw on the video.
