Titleist players were all over the leaderboard once again this week, this time at The Honda Classic, where Titleist Brand Ambassador Justin Thomas (Pro V1x) topped Titleist golf ball loyalist Luke List (Pro V1) with a birdie on the first hole of a sudden death playoff.

The win was the 8th of Thomas’ PGA Tour career and his 7th in his last 31 events.

Six of the top seven finishers relied upon Titleist as Titleist golf ball loyalist Tommy Fleetwood (Pro V1x) finished solo 4th, two shots out of the playoff, while Titleist Brand Ambassadors Ben An (Pro V1x) and Webb Simpson (Pro V1) tied for 5th, another shot back.

The solo 7th place finisher also relied upon a Pro V1 golf ball for his success, as well as Vokey Design SM7 pitching (48°), gap (52°) and lob (60°) wedges and a Scotty Cameron 009M putter.

It all came down to the final hole between the two playing partners, as Fisher, who had already birdied the 16th and 17th, just missed his 10-foot birdie opportunity to force a playoff.

Pepperell closed with a 2-under-par 70 en route to an 18-under par 270 victory total.
