Team TaylorMade SWAPS Drivers In A Straightest Drive Contest!
Oct 23, 2025
Team TaylorMade is back together and in this video, they're going to be switching Qi35 Drivers and competing in a straightest drive competition.
Each person will walk around the bags while music plays and when the music stops, they have to hit whoever's driver they land on. The two golfers who hit it most off-line will be eliminated, and the last golfer standing wins.
This all shows why it's so important to get fit for a Qi35 Driver that is optimized for YOUR game.
Tiger Woods is MC, and Scottie Scheffler, Nelly Korda, Rory McIlroy, Collin Morikawa, Tommy Fleetwood, Charley Hull, and Brooke Henderson are playing. Watch till the end for a special surprise from Tiger.
Behind me are some of the best players in the world.
And today they're going to be testing
the brand new TaylorMade QI35 driver.
In the golf bags are optimized drivers for their game.
But to show you the importance of getting an optimized driver
for your game, we're not going to have them hit their gamers.
When the music stops,
they're going to grab whatever driver is closest to them.
Nelly.
Whose is this?
And they're going to go into a straightest drive contest.
Correct.
This is Musical Drivers.
I'm a little dizzy, guys.
Can we go back the other way now?
Oh, yeah. Actually, I'm getting a little dizzy.
I know.
Oh, sorry.
Oh, really?
Right on it.
Pick out what you've got.
Let's see what we're into.
I think they're gamers.
I think I have Scotties.
This is mine.
I've got no name on my back.
Nelly, you're first up.
Let's see what you got.
Who is this?
Smooth swing.
I mean, this is probably exactly what I need.
The blue shark.
Oh, that might be mine.
Oh, my God.
It's so long.
It's my driver.
Oh, is it?
This is Nelly's bag. Is this yours?
Oh.
Oh, you guys started in different spots.
Does it say a name on the back?
You guys ended up being in the same spots.
So, folks, the game is we're going to play straightest
drive on whatever driver you've picked up is going to win.
We've got side total on the screen.
You can see we have a marker out there in the fairway.
It's one shot per person, one shot per player.
We're going to eliminate two players at the start,
and then we'll go back to our musical drivers.
What do you think, Nelly?
Whose driver have you got?
Do you even know?
Oh, it's super long, so I'm guessing it's Brooks.
I think it is mine.
Is it just who lands on this?
Yeah.
Is it just who lands on this?
We're going to go off side total, so there can be no arguing.
And, of course, I have the greatest judge in golf for me here,
Mr. Tiger Woods, if needed.
What is side total measured off of?
Your spin?
Side total is just spin.
Yeah, dispersion.
Oh.
Nice.
There's a real spin.
Oh, my.
Yeah, baby.
Hey.
You might want to go to it.
5.4 left.
That was right in the middle, wasn't it?
That was dead center.
Yeah, it was pretty good, I think.
I thought it was going to show up zero.
Maybe I'll play your driver.
I need it back, though.
It's just Brooks.
Can you tell?
Thanks for starting us off really well there, Nelly.
Thanks, Nelly.
Now I feel real comfortable with the—
That thing was hot.
Put some magic on that thing, Scotty, please.
Any idea whose driver you've got?
Yeah.
My driver's going to realize how it can be hit.
Pretty nice.
That was nice.
Is side total just how far you are from the center?
I was pretty happy with that.
Charlie, let's go.
What did it feel like?
Or Rory's, one of the two.
I couldn't decide because it looks like it's going to go right, and you draw it.
I couldn't decide if it was going to—you know what I mean?
Like, I don't know what to play for you.
So am I trying to hit the straightest ball, or am I trying to just land it on the strip?
Charlie, am I trying to hit the straightest ball?
No, it just needs to land on the strip.
You land it on the strip.
Yeah, I faded.
I faded mine.
Which is five yards.
Straightest in a line, not straightest curve.
This grip is so thick.
No, it's side total.
Wherever it lands, you want to land it as close to that thing as you can.
Oh, God.
Sorry.
Is that Rory's driver?
Come on, Rory.
Let's go.
Terrible.
Thanks, Charlie.
Cheers, mate.
Cheers.
What are you on to there?
I've got Scotty Sheffler's driver.
That is nothing.
That's not miles away from yours.
No, I couldn't grip it.
Not miles away, but—
So this has got a thicker handle.
Tiger, what are we thinking so far?
How do you think this one's going to play out?
He's got Scotty's driver.
Thicker handle.
Looks good.
A little heavier, I think.
I don't think he can draw it.
No, I don't think I can.
Oh!
He can draw it.
Look at that.
Challenge.
He took the challenge, didn't he?
180.
That was a nice drive.
Yeah.
Cruising.
Beautiful.
Not a lot of spin.
Just chipping at 180 balls.
Don't test it.
Who have we got last at the moment?
Charlie and Scotty in the danger zone.
Works like this is so short.
Dang.
I'm not used to hitting a draw.
Not your backstop.
I know.
It's built for a draw.
Hang in there.
Majorly built for a draw.
All right, Colin.
Pick up 51.
Tommy, teach it how to draw.
Teach that driver how to draw.
Not normally.
Very draw-biased.
We've got 51 to beat to stay in it.
Go wide.
Come on, Colin.
Colin.
It's an anti-left driver.
Oh, Tommy.
I hit triple figures.
Does it make you appreciate your gamer a little more?
Not that bad, Charlie.
This hole's where that would work.
This looks like a Charlie hole special for you.
It says.
That was easy.
All right.
Drop the clubs back in the bag.
We've got Tommy and Charlie going to stand next to Tiger.
And then it's musical drivers again when the music starts.
Just cruise around.
What?
There's a bag for all of us.
All right.
Brooke, first up.
Tommy Fleetwoods.
Let's go, Brooke.
The two of them are going to be out again.
Come in, guys. Come in.
Whose driver is that?
This one.
This is me.
Yes, Brooke.
Great drive, Brooke.
How did the driver feel?
Sorry?
How did the driver feel?
Pretty stiff.
Whose was that?
Tommy.
Was that Tommy?
Okay.
Thanks.
Twenty-three to beat.
Oh, my God.
Oh, no.
Whose was that?
You.
Scotty.
I've got my own.
Yeah.
Where'd it go?
Right?
Tommy got eliminated, Charlie.
Two, mate.
Two.
So, 51 is the bottom one at the moment.
No, this is yours.
Hi.
I think nine.
I'm not sure.
Colin, was that your driver as well?
That's mine.
Nice.
That shows you.
That's good.
Thanks, guys.
You can clap.
What was your first goal shot you hit?
The first shot you hit.
Was it close, tighter than that?
Has that been the tightest one so far?
Yeah.
Mine's the tightest one on the left.
Yeah.
Five, right?
My one's out of the screen.
103?
Yeah.
Spinach.
Come on.
Got it.
Oh, my.
Nice.
Big spawn out there.
That was nice.
I'll let you borrow it.
It was 14 and then now 11.
4,200.
11-3.
It spins a little.
Just a tiny bit.
Charlie, was that your driver?
No.
Brookes was good.
Brookes was really good.
No, I've taken one out.
You had that on, didn't you?
Yeah.
That's why I said I could hold it.
There you go.
Wow, they're all pretty close.
That was a wonderful goal shot.
Oh, yeah.
It's drawn back.
Zero.
I think the girls.
Oh.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Oh, my.
Thank you.
23, 180 feet.
That one worked.
I'm going to keep this one.
That one worked.
That was good.
It's both the Nelly and Brookes, right?
That was nice.
Unlucky, guys.
We're out.
Good job.
I'm a little busy.
All right.
Yeah, all right.
We'll go this way.
Nelly.
QI35.
QI35 Max.
Right.
Who do you like?
Who's got what?
And who likes what?
We've got Nelly's.
Me?
Rory up first.
Why is mine still in there?
I'm back to back.
I've learned.
You've got mine, Sky.
Oh, interesting.
There you go, mate.
You go first.
So this is for the win, okay?
Don't break my shaft.
Nelly's.
Sky, this is the second time you had mine on the first shot.
Huh?
You had mine on the first shot.
How many shots do you reckon it takes to get used to a driver, Tommy?
One for him.
Considering he's hit it already.
No idea.
For Sky?
Yeah.
I think Sky will be fine.
I mean, it's a draw by us.
Ander's.
Yeah.
Is this where we go?
Mine.
Ander's weight on the heel?
Yeah.
Yeah, just like a roll check.
Tommy, unfortunately, he beat you.
He hasn't done yet.
Ball speed was nice, though.
There you go.
You brought me back into the screen.
I can't believe I only spun 3,200.
I thought, oh, my.
Nelly.
That's what I did.
I hit fairways with it.
It didn't spin, like.
I was like, okay, image to it.
I tried to hit a cut.
Yeah.
Ball speed's perfect.
Swing speed's good.
Spin rate's not bad.
Wasn't that tight.
Better than mine.
Is that your gentleman?
Yeah, that's right.
Oh.
Oh, I think Colin's got it.
Who's driver was that?
That was Tommy's.
You're supposed to draw, Tommy.
You're supposed to draw by him.
I see you do that all the time.
Congratulations.
So, as the winner of the straight drive competition,
Tiger's got a little extra game that he wants to throw in.
Do you want to pick a driver to do this?
Because you're going to be the man doing the extra game.
Do you want to pick a driver?
Any driver you want.
We'll see how good your dispersion pattern is.
Use your gamer.
Use any one of your other drivers here.
Why does it look like there's like a...
If I don't do something...
I think you should use Nellie.
There's a butt to it.
It'll go straight.
There's a butt to it.
Well, yeah, there's definitely a butt.
Okay, and then...
I think you would actually draw it.
Just put your head on your club,
go around it five times,
tee it up, and hit it.
And then how straight can you hit it after that?
Let's see how optimized you can get,
even with your gamer, if you want.
Okay.
Oh, no, I want Charlie's.
Okay, go for it.
So, did you hear that?
How straight do you think he's going to hit this
when he's doing that game
where you put your head on the grip end,
you just spin five times,
and then give it a hit?
Here, no, I won't break Charlie's shot.
Give me like a...
Give me a draw driver.
Nellie.
Oh, God.
Nellie.
I thought you were okay with breaking my shot.
God.
It depends.
It depends which way I'm spinning.
You going clockwise or counterclockwise?
You tell me.
Which way do you want me to go?
Counterclockwise.
To the left.
All right, send it.
Definitely draw bias.
Yeah.
He wants another go now, straight away.
You got to do another five spins.
All right, hold on.
Five spins the other way.
That was good ball speed.
By the way.
Five spins the other way.
You got to go much quicker on your spin.
Hold on, okay, hold on.
I'm going to go the same way.
You went left the first time.
You went...
Give it some speed on your spinning.
No, that's not the way I went.
Fourteen to beat.
That's good.
All right, well...
Well, if you ever need to draw it...
Mate, you won the actual...
You won the straightest drive, and that was a cracking effort.
Why is your driver going so fast?
I think that shows the importance of getting optimized for your driver.
Well done, guys.
Congrats, Colin.
He seems to win every year.
Well done, mate.
Yeah, swing speed of 115 after all that.
Good job, everybody.
Good job.
