Only hours before his Scottish Open tee time, J.B. Holmes still needs clubs

J.B. Holmes left the U.S. on Monday bound for Scotland and the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open, a tuneup event for next week’s British Open at Royal Troon. However, as of Wednesday evening in Scotland, Holmes’ golf bag and clubs have yet to arrive at Castle Stuart Golf Links in Inverness.

If Holmes does not get his clubs before his 8:35 a.m. Thursday tee time, replacing them could be complicated because he plays clubs from four manufacturers.: TaylorMade, Tour Edge, Cleveland and Edel.

His gear:

  • DRIVER: TaylorMade M1 430 (9.5 degrees), with Fujikura Pro Tour Spec 83X shaft
  • FAIRWAY WOOD: TaylorMade SLDR (15 degrees), Fujikura Pro Tour Spec 93X shaft
  • HYBRID: TaylorMade R15 (21 degrees), with True Temper Dynamic Golf S400 shaft
  • IRONS: Tour Edge CB PROh (3) and TaylorMade Tour Preferred MC (4-9), with True Temper Dynamic Gold S400 shafts
  • WEDGES: Cleveland 588 RTX (48, 54, 60 degrees), with True Temper Dynamic Gold S400 shafts
  • PUTTER: Edel E-1
  • BALL: Srixon Z-Star
