If any PGA Tour player was going to name each of their irons and wedges in the bag then it was always going to be Bryson DeChambeau.

DeChambeau, who uses single-length Cobra irons, doesn't just refer to his irons and wedges by their normal numbers when he's out on the course with his caddie Brian Zeigler - but via nicknames instead. 

Some are based on the Greek alphabet, others on Augusta National and The Masters. 

There is even a hat tip to Tin Cup with one of his irons.

The PGA Tour's biggest hitter might not have names for his driver and fairway woods, at least not to our knowledge, but he did recently describe his new Cobra proto driver as "disgusting" so perhaps he will have a nickname for this soon. 

Bryson does have names for his 3-iron through to his wedges, albeit with no name for his 4-iron. 

The gap wedge cracks us up. "Hey, give me the Jimmy!" 

Check them out in the list below:
