TaylorMade Golf has today unveiled its all-new TP5 and TP5x golf balls.

New for both balls is TaylorMade’s microcoating technology that changes the way golf balls are painted to ensure they perform as they were designed.

During the development of the 2026 TP5 and TP5x, TaylorMade’s R&D team found that, with traditional finishing processes, excess paint tends to pool at the bottom of the dimples, creating an uneven application across the ball’s surface. This results in inconsistent ball flight on the course.

With those learnings, TaylorMade developed a revolutionary microcoating process that ensures an ultrathin, even paint application across the entire surface of the golf ball. They were able to achieve an even application through reengineering the paint process which includes precisely controlling cure times and temperatures, and optimized atomization to the one-millionth of a gram of how much total paint is used.

This is all done in design to provide predictable full-shot dispersion, which includes: optimized peak height, consistent distance, a tight range of left-to-right misses, and reliable overall performance, especially in the wind.

TaylorMade’s investment in R&D also included the development of digital prototyping capabilities that allowed engineers to analyze more than 100,000 variations of TP5 and TP5x to find the optimal five-layer construction that aims to maximize distance, spin, and consistent performance.

The 2026 TP5 employs TaylorMade’s largest Tour core, which decreases contact time with the clubface at impact, designed for increased energy retention and faster ball speeds on full-swing shots.

TaylorMade has also updated its Tour Flight Dimple Pattern in TP5. The reengineered design features new dimples that minimize turbulence and create an optimized lift-to-drag ratio for a lower, more penetrating flight.

TP5x

TP5x is TaylorMade’ slowest spinning, fastest five-layer Tour ball. That speed is largely attributed to new mantle layers, which include new materials in design for maximum ball speeds at the top of the bag. The core also provides the foundation for firmer material composition in the three mantle layers that comprise the speed gradient, further contributing to ball speed. The mantle construction also fine-tunes spin throughout the flight.

Around the green, the ultrathin cast urethane cover is designed to provide ample wedge spin for precise distance control and soft feel
