After the chaos (fun chaos) that was the WMO this week, the Callaway Performance trailer wandered west on the I-10 to Riviera for the star packed Genesis Invitational. Monday was a pretty mellow day, with most players using it as a travel day. The main highlight Monday was the announcement of Markus Byrd to #teamcallaway. I got to know Markus early last year and was hoping/waiting for our team to lock him in, we did, and I’m jacked up. This kid has a TON of talent.
On site, we had: Tour Manager Joe Toulon, Performance Reps Kellen Watson, and Dean Teykl. Tour Tech Greg Shaw. Wedge stamper to the stars Anthony Taranto, the GOAT Roger Cleveland, and Odysseys Cody Hale and Eric Stubben.

You have 10 seconds; what are you grabbing? Christiaan Bezuidenhout worked with Roger Cleveland and Dean Teykl on some prototype wedges this week. Can’t show them but they are pretty awesome.All converted “C” grinds for Bez; he likes a “C” grind with even more heel and toe relief. Growing up in South Africa, he is a player that likes to rely a bit more on his hands which makes a low bounce option very effective. Francesco Molinari was the newest convert into the Paradym STD. 18@17.1, 57 lie This club carries about 240 in the air with roughly 3700-4000RPM spinFujikura Ventus Red 8X Tipped 2, 42 EOG, D3The Driver set up of Markus Byrd: Paradym 💎💎💎10.5@9Shaft: TT PX HZURDUS Black 70G 6.5TX (45 EOG, D3, Tipped 1) This butane finish 2-ball is going out to a former Open Champion.
