Several players were deemed to be using non-conforming drivers at the recently concluded Safeway Open in California as the new PGA Tour testing procedure swung into full gear, Reuters has learned.
But some players are questioning the accuracy of the Tour’s testing procedure, and have sent their drivers back to their various manufacturers for re-testing.
The non-conforming drivers are from across the manufacturing spectrum, including major brands such as Titleist, TaylorMade, and Cobra, two insiders with knowledge of the matter said.
It is believed that Corey Conners, Robert Streb, Jason Dufner, Michael Thompson, and Mark Hubbard were among those whose drivers did not pass the test.
