GolfWRX at 2026 Travelers Championship: New Srixon ZXi RKT Drivers and Tour Bag Spotlights

2026 Travelers Championship: What to Watch on the Equipment Front

The PGA Tour has arrived at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut, for the 2026 Travelers Championship, and GolfWRX's on-site photographer has already delivered a wealth of early-week equipment content.

Srixon ZXi RKT Drivers Make Their Tour Debut

The headline find this week is an early look at Srixon's new ZXi RKT driver, captured in three configurations — a standard model, a Max, and an LS variant. These appear to be in late-stage testing by Srixon tour staff, making this one of the first confirmed on-course sightings ahead of any official announcement.

Putter Spotlight: Fitzpatrick and Hojgaard

Matt Fitzpatrick is rolling a Bettinardi putter this week, while Nicolai Hojgaard has been spotted with an Odyssey TRTL flatstick. Putter selection at this level often reflects recent SG: Putting trends, and both players have been experimenting with their setups in 2026.

Caddie WITB Round-Up

GolfWRX published 14 caddie WITBs from the tournament, spanning bags for players including Scottie Scheffler (looped by Ted Scott), Collin Morikawa, Rickie Fowler, Adam Scott, and Justin Thomas, among others.

Strokeslab Perspective

Caddie WITBs are an underrated data source for understanding how elite players configure their full setups. Cross-referencing equipment choices with SG category performance — particularly SG: OTT and SG: APP — can reveal whether gear changes correlate with statistical improvements over the season.
