Which putters do the top 10 golfers in the world use?

Tour golfers tinker with their putting set-up more than perhaps any other club in the bag, but once they find a putter they like, they cling on to it with an iron fist.

Putters are, after all, the real money makers in the game of golf. As the saying goes, drive for show, putt for dough, and just in the way countless PGA Tour rounds have been undone by poor putting, great play on the greens has won innumerable major championships over the years.

But which of the best putters around are the world's best players using right now? Read on to find out.

1. Scottie Scheffler: TaylorMade Spider Tour X

Scottie Scheffler has been using TaylorMade's Spider Tour X putter since the beginning of 2024 and the club has seen him secure more than a dozen wins worldwide, including three majors and an Olympic gold medal.

"In testing at the end of 2023, we identified something that could help him know he was striking the ball on the centre of the face," said Rietveld.

"Instead of the sight dot he had on his blade, we started to re-introduce True Path and we were on to something in terms of his eyes and what he thought he was doing versus what he was actually doing when hitting his putts.

"With a Spider putter there's so much tech that you can see and also not see, all helping him hit better putts more often."

2. Rory McIlroy: TaylorMade Spider Tour X

Already one of the most iconic putter pairings on Tour, Rory McIlroy and his TaylorMade Spider X created a moment for the ages at last year's Irish Open final round, holing an incredible 28-foot eagle putt at the 18th to force a playoff and eventually win on the third playoff hole.

Rory's Spider build is a fairly conventional one, the Northern Irishman opting for the company's pure roll insert, a small slant neck and a torched black and blue finish. The small slant neck aims to combine the performance of a blade with the benefits of a mallet design, with the weights positioned further forward to increase toe hang while maintaining MOI.

The package is finished off with a SuperStroke Zenergy Pistol Tour grip.

3. Cameron Young: Scotty Cameron Phantom 9.5 Tour Prototype

Like the vast majority Titleist tour players, Cameron Young has understandably invoked one of the biggest privileges available to the company's contracted players: full access to the Scotty Cameron putter range.

Favouring a mallet-style putter, Young uses the Phantom 9.5 shape in a Tour Prototype finish. A slightly smaller-profile mallet, the Phantom 9.5 is balanced to aid players who prefer a little more of what Scotty Cameron calls 'toe flow', meaning the toe of the club follows the proper arching path throughout the stroke.

4. Matt Fitzpatrick: Bettinardi Dass BB1 Fitz Flow

Widely regarded as one of the best putters on the PGA Tour, Matt Fitzpatrick is a longtime endorsee of putters from American manufacturer Bettinardi. Having experimented with a range of putters from the brand throughout 2025, he returned to the DASS BB1 Fitz Flow prototype that the American brand developed and in conjunction with the Englishman.

5. Justin Rose: Scotty Cameron Phantom 5 Tour Prototype

Justin Rose is one of many equipment free agents to have gravitated towards Titleist's legendary Scotty Cameron putter range, having played the brand's putters for some time now..

Favouring a mallet-style putter, Young uses the Phantom 5 shape in a Tour Prototype finish. A slightly smaller-profile mallet, the Phantom 5 is made from a 303 stainless steel and 6061 aircraft grade aluminium for an incredibly soft feel on the ball, while the head and neck are engineered to minimise the putter's swing arc as much as possible.

6. Collin Morikawa: TaylorMade Spider Tour X

Collin Morikawa's putting woes over the last couple of years have been much documented, and addition to tweaking his irons, he spent 2025 tinkering with multiple putter options after a downturn in his form with the flat stick. The American even described himself as “putting like a blind man” after a poor round on the greens to open last year's Rocket Classic.

In December, Morikawa  switch into into a fourth putter of that year, jumping on the zero torque bandwagon in the process with his adoption of the TaylorMade Spider ZT. He stuck with the model to start the 2026 season, however he switched once more to a flow-necked Spider Tour X, relaying an excellent story about stealing an example from Kurt Kitayama and practicing relentlessly with it.

7. Tommy Fleetwood: TaylorMade Spider Tour

Tommy Fleetwood has been using TaylorMade's Spider Tour putter since April 2025 ditching his long-trusty Scotty Cameron Newport and moving into a mallet for the first time.

According to TaylorMade, Fleetwood adopted the putter after testing a couple of Spider models the week after the 2025 Masters, finding a custom set-up that allowed him to correct a slight leftwards bias in his stroke. Fleetwood then switched into a 2026 refresh of the model in April, which has a new colour scheme and a pilot's eye alignment mark.

8. Xander Schauffele: Odyssey Red Milled Seven X

Odyssey's #7 mallet design is an icon for a reason, and Xander Schauffele is perhaps the model's most high-profile devotee. Schauffele's distinctive red-finished putter comes from the company's former Toulon Design collection and, in contrast to the O-Works #7CH Red he used up until 2023, has a milled face rather than one of Odyssey's more commonly seen face inserts. 

9. J.J. Spaun: L.A.B Golf DF3

One of the Tour's most notable L.A.B Golf converts, J.J. Spaun has long been a player synonymous with the brand's zero-torque DF3 model. Indeed, he's the only player to win a major with a L.A.B putter in the bag, having used the same DF3 in his U.S. Open win last year.

10. Chris Gotterup: TaylorMade Spider Tour X

Like Scheffler, Chris Gotterup has opted for the TaylorMade Tour Spider X, fitted with an L-neck which promotes a more controlled, less arced swing path and aids alignment and accuracy.
