Quick Answer
Darren Clarke plays a Titleist GT3 driver, Srixon ZXi5 irons, Cleveland RTZ Tour Rack wedges, and a Scotty Cameron Red X2 putter, as recorded in the December 2025 bag snapshot. The driver is built with a Fujikura Ventus Black VeloCore+ 7 X shaft.
Darren Clarke is a Northern Irishman who won the 2011 Open Championship at Royal St George's at age 42, the first major title of a career that already included two World Golf Championships, among them the 2000 Match Play final over Tiger Woods. He won more than a dozen times on the European Tour, played five Ryder Cups, and captained Europe at Hazeltine in 2016. He now competes on PGA Tour Champions. The driver is a Titleist GT3 built at 8 degrees, a low head loft paired with Fujikura Ventus Black VeloCore+ in 7 X, a heavy and stiff low-spin combination. Titleist is the only driver brand on record here. The irons are a Srixon split set, ZXi5 in the 4 and 5 for launch, ZXi7 from 6 through pitching wedge, every one of them on KBS $-Taper HT 130, a single shaft model and weight through the set. The putter is a Scotty Cameron Red X2, a design older than everything else in the bag.

Bag History
1 snapshots tracked, 2025
The 2025-12-05 build is the only snapshot on record, so there is no change history to read against it. What stands out in the single entry is the shaft discipline, one KBS $-Taper HT 130 spec across both iron models, and the Red X2, a putter from a much earlier Scotty Cameron era sitting behind current-generation heads. Additional snapshots will be needed before any pattern can be drawn.
