Brooks Koepka, in his first event as a Cleveland/Srixon staffer, won the latest edition of The Match against Bryson DeChambeau on Friday at the Wynn Golf Club in Las Vegas.

In his first outing with the new Cleveland/Srixon clubs, Koepka proved he’s quite comfortable with his new setup, silencing any initial doubts on the switch.

“I’ve been an equipment free agent for the past few years,” Koepka said in a release about the signing earlier this week, “so it will be fun to be involved with a company on a daily basis and be able to contribute to the development of their future equipment.”

Check out his brand new winning equipment setup below.

Driver: Srixon ZX5 (Mitsubishi Diamana D+ 70TX shaft), 9.5 degrees

Srixon ZX5 Driver

$499.99
OUR TAKE: The ZX Drivers (ZX5 and ZX7) both pack a punch when it comes to added distance and forgiveness. One tester chimed in by saying, “The traditional shaping and the red line on the back look great. The ball feels really fast off the face. It’s best one I’ve hit of the day.” Speaking of hits, the two models offer golfer a choice between a higher trajectory or a more penetrating one.  THE DETAILS: A carbon crown and Rebound Frame combine to increase distance and forgiveness on off-center hits. Additionally, and adjustable hosel and two rear and low weight ports enable golfers to fine tune the CG placement and face angle for a draw or fade shotshape. The more triangular ZX5 has a higher MOI and produces a higher ballflight, whereas the rounder ZX7 yields affords more shotmaking playability and produces a more penetrating launch.  Check out 150+ reviews from our gear experts in the ClubTest 2021 collection

Srixon ZX7 Irons

$1137.99
OUR TAKE: When we see and try an iron that combines the soft feel of a forged iron with the added distance and forgiveness of a multi-material construction, we get all giddy inside. According to a club tester talking about the ZX. “I felt like I miss-hit a few, but you’d never know it by the ample amount of forgiveness. They aren’t far off from the set I no THE DETAILS: The multi-piece construction combines tungsten toe weights with a forged carbon steel body, resulting in optimal weighting and better vibration dampening and control. There are two models here to choose from—the ZX5 and ZX7. The ZX5 has a wider sole and a slightly longer profile for more stability and forgiveness, while the ZX7 is more compact and has a thinner topline for enhanced shotmaking versatility. Mixed sets are available. This set comes from 4-PW.  Check out 150+ reviews from our gear experts in the ClubTest 2021 collection.
