The Winning Setup: Min-Gyu Cho at the Fujisankei Classic

Titleist Brand Ambassador Min-Gyu Cho (Pro V1x) of Korea earned a three-shot victory over four players, including fellow Titleist Brand Ambassador Daisuke Maruyama (Pro V1x) at the Fujisankei Classic.

It marked the second career JGTO win for Cho, who won his first title in 2011.

Cho finished with a 7-under-par 277 victory total. Both players relied upon the Titleist Pro V1x golf ball and 917D2 prototype driver for their success.

Cho becomes the first player to win with the new driver since the seeding process began on the JGTO last month.

Let's take a closer look at the winning setup Cho trusted to enter the winner's circle in Japan:

Golf Ball: Pro V1x

Driver: New prototype 917D2 (9.5°)

Hybrid: 915H (18°), 910H (21°)

Irons: CB (4 – 9)

Wedges: Vokey Design SM6 pitching (48º) and gap (52°), SM5 lob (60°)

Congratulations, Min-Gyu!

TITLEIST BY THE NUMBERS

 Titleist was the top golf ball choice at the Fujisankei Classic with 56 players trusting a Pro V1 or Pro V1x, compared to the nearest competitor with 33.

Titleist was also the field favorite in iron sets (23) and Titleist Vokey Design Wedges were also the top choice in the approach, sand and lob wedge category (101).
