For the second edition of the PGA Tour and LPGA Tour’s crossover event, the Grant Thornton Invitational, it’s fitting that the two golfers who ended up with the trophy were the duo that actually won on the same day earlier this year.
Thanks to Patty Tavatanakit‘s clutch 25-footer on the 16th hole and Jake Knapp‘s tough up-and-down for birdie on the 17th, the pair of UCLA alums won the Grant Thornton Invitational won Sunday by one shot after a 65 in modified four-ball.
Take a closer look at the gear each of them used for the team win including Tavatanakit’s Scotty Cameron putter and Knapp’s PXG and Titleist Vokey wedges.

Irons: Titleist T200 4-iron (Graphite Design Tour AD DI-85 Hybrid S) and Titleist T100 5-PW (Nippon N.S. Pro 950GH S)
Titleist T200 Custom Irons
$199.99
With the new T200, distance has never felt so good. Built with a forged face, hollow-body construction and shaped by Tour technologies, it delivers incredible launch and forgiveness in a pure player’s design.
T200 represents a dramatic leap forward in feel. The entire internal construction of this forged-face iron has been reengineered – with a more stable chassis, refined Max Impact Technology and a new dual taper face – to deliver maximum speed with Tour-level feel.
ENHANCED FEEL
Every component of T200 contributes to its solid feel. The reengineered chassis creates a stiffer structure, while allowing the refined Max Impact Technology to fit tighter against the new dual taper forged face. This leads to better feel and performance across the entire surface.
CLEAN AND CONFIDENT SHAPE
For all that has changed, the Tour-inspired shape of T200 remains consistent. Players will still draw confidence from a distance iron that looks clean and has less offset, with an optimal blade length and topline thickness based on player feedback.
EFFORTLESS TURF INTERACTION
Working with Tour Pros as well as the grind experts at Vokey Design, our engineers were able to further improve our Variable Bounce Sole by softening the trail edge to allow the club to flow faster through the turf, even after contact. Developed for T100, it brings a Tour touch to T200.
BETTER TUNGSTEN FOR BETTER SCORING
By utilizing dense D18 tungsten and a 2000º aerospace brazing process, Titleist engineers can eliminate weld points and shift CG more precisely to optimize every club in the set – from fast, high launching long irons to accurate, forgiving short irons.

Titleist T100 Custom Irons
$199.99
Feel is essential for the best players in the game. The refined, fully forged dual-cavity construction of Titleist T100 produces a more solid feel at impact, while the precision CNC face milling process leads to more consistent contact for greater control.
ENHANCED FEEL
The latest evolution of the T100 dual-cavity forged construction features an enhanced back bar to produce a more solid feel at impact. Informed by modal testing and Tour input, T100 irons are tuned to provide the exact stability and sensation the world’s best players desire from a well-struck shot.
REFINED FOR GREATER CONTROL
In addition to the improvements made to the body construction, T100 benefits from a new precision CNC face milling process. Combined with a subtle shift in CG the result is more control and consistent ball flight, especially when moving from fairway to first cut.
EFFORTLESS TURF INTERACTION
Working with Tour Pros and the grind experts at Vokey Design, our engineers were able to further improve our Variable Bounce Sole by smoothing and softening the trailing edge to allow the club to flow faster through the turf, even after contact. A simple but surprisingly meaningful improvement.
BETTER TUNGSTEN FOR BETTER FLIGHT
By utilizing dense D18 tungsten and a 2000º aerospace brazing process, Titleist engineers can eliminate weld points and be more precise with CG placement to give you the benefit of modern engineered performance with a solid forged feel.
