“I feel very comfortable” - Tiger Woods explains why he is replacing clubs to use the 3-woods at the Genesis Invitational 2024

Tiger Woods rarely makes changes to his golf equipment; however, at this week's Genesis Invitational, he made a few changes to his bag. The legendary golfer was spotted practicing with the new TaylorMade Qi10 Tour fairway along with his old TaylorMade SIM 3-wood.

During a press conference held on Wednesday, February 14, before the commencement of The Genesis Invitational, Tiger Woods opened up on his experiences using new golf equipment for practice.

Speaking about the changes, Woods said:

"The 3-wood is in play. I feel very comfortable with the 3-wood. I had to find the right shaft for it and decide to switch the shafts and go with what I had on my driver. So it's consistent. My five is different. It's old, it's little beat up but it still works. But the three, I wanted to find something that I could draw a little bit better. And this one is definitely that, as far as the shoes go."

Woods then talked about the practice round, saying:

"[I] Had to make a slight adjustment yesterday, was putting some nails in as far as traction. Being at home in Florida and testing in Florida, it was very different than coming out here and playing off a slope and playing off a wet grass. And having the traction I needed, so I put some nails in yesterday and has been working."
