Here's every putter used by a winner on the PGA Tour in the 2024 season
Putting is normally a key component to success on the PGA Tour. Given that, it seems logical to take a look at every putter used to win a tour event over the course of the season. As the 2024 season plays out, we are chronicling what's been in the bag for every winner during the year. We're going to also track the FedEx Cup fall events, too. So after 41 events and 42 winners overall on the year, Odyssey claimed its 14th victory with Kevin Yu's triumph at the Sanderson Farms Championship. TaylorMade leads the overall count with 16 wins. After Odyssey, Titleist is next closest with five wins, followed by Ping with three. L.A.B. has two wins and LA Golf has one.
Kevin Yu, Sanderson Farms Championship
Putter: Odyssey Ai One Milled Six T
Key putting stat: The road to Yu's PGA Tour victory was paved by some impressive play on the greens by the 26-year-old. Yu ranked second for the week in strokes gained/putting (8.679). He was also the leader in feet of putts made and putts per GIR.

Scottie Scheffler, Tour Championship
Putter: TaylorMade Spider Tour X1
Key putting stat: On weeks where Scheffler is cranking off the tee, like the one at East Lake when he was No. 1 in strokes gained, if he has even an average week on the greens the Texan is likely to win.

No surprise then that he capped his season as FedEx Cup champion by winning his seventh tour title of 2024.

Wyndham Clark, AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am
Putter: Odyssey Ai One Jailbird Cruiser
Most of us think of the putter face as a study in feel, but the engineers at Odyssey thought, Why can’t we get the face to be active and flexing on putts, too? The key was using artificial intelligence to produce the strangely bumpy back of the face. This insert uses “micro-deflections” to help mis-hits roll nearly as well as center strikes. When it comes to feel, is there anything better than fewer three putts?
Key putting stat: En route to shooting his record-breaking 12-under 60 at Pebble Beach during Saturday's third round (which turned out to be the final round of the rain-shortened event), Clark made more than 189 feet in putts.
