Christiaan Bezuidenhout WITB

Professional golfer Christiaan Bezuidenhout hails from South Africa. He has won ten professional titles in total, the most recent coming at the 2020 South African Open, where he defeated Jamie Donaldson by five strokes. He has had some top-10s and runner-up finishes since the South African Open, but no wins.

After going professional in 2015, Bezuidenhout joined the European Tour in 2018. He won his first professional event, the 2019 Estella Damm N.A. Andulucia Masters, defeating Jon Rahm by six strokes, among others. Following this, he also won the 2020 Alfred Dunhill Championship.

Bezuidenhout tied his career high finish on the PGA Tour in January 2024, finishing one stroke behind amateur Nick Dunlap in the runner-up spot at The American Express. Since Dunlap was an amateur, Bezuidenhout claimed the first place reward money.

Christiaan Bezuidenhout’s Driver

Bezuidenhout uses a Callaway Paradym Triple Diamond driver with a Fujikura Ventus TR Blue 7X shaft; its loft angle is 9 degrees, but set at 10 degrees. The more conventional and compact model in the Callaway Paradym line, the Paradym TD, is an excellent driver for shaping the ball off the tee. But according to Golf Monthly, it isn't as forgiving as other drivers in the same bracket.

Christiaan Bezuidenhout’s Fairways

For three-wood, Bezuidenhout has the same model he had for his driver, a Callaway Paradym TD, but set at 15.5 of 13.5 degrees and a different Mitsubishi Kai’li Blue 70 TX shaft. The TD driver is the smallest in the lineup, and this version lacks alignment assistance.

Despite being just 10 cc smaller than the standard Callaway Paradym driver, it looks much more compact at address, resembling the Titleist TSR4 driver in stature. The 14-gram back weight of the TD model can be adjusted to be in the front for even less spin and maximum workability. In other words, there's a balance between size and power.

Christiaan Bezuidenhout’s Irons

Bezuidenhout technically has one iron and one utility iron; there's a difference between the two depending on the terrain and need. Regardless, he uses a Callaway X Forged Utility iron set at 25 degrees, while the other is a Callaway Apex TCB (3-PW), both of which have KBS Tour 125 S+ shafts installed.

X Forged UT Irons were designed using feedback from Callaway's tour crew and are aimed mostly at the more experienced player. With an effortless launch and longer carry, the tungsten-infused insert in the UT Irons increases MOI, giving players even more variety and control from the tee. Further, its well planned CG location encourages straighter ball flights and speed.

According to Golf Monthly, tour professionals and better players use the Callaway Apex TCB irons. It offers soft feel and forgiveness to shape the ball, but it must be noted that the best ball-strickers will have the benefit of it; the same can't be said for modest players.

Christiaan Bezuidenhout’s Wedges

Bezuidenhout has three wedges with lofts of 50, 55, and 60 degrees, all of which are Callaway Mack Daddy Forged versions. It seems that he doesn't often alter his wedge setup, and his loft configuration is among the most well-liked while on tour. The wedges are fitted with True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts, and he has some really interesting ribbon stampings on them as well.

Christiaan Bezuidenhout’s Putter

The Odyssey White Hot OG #7 has replaced Bezuidenhout's Odyssey Works Big T #5, which he had been using with a two-thumb grip. The White Hot OG line has proven to be incredibly popular both on and off tour, and this one features a fang design.

Christiaan Bezuidenhout’s Golf Ball

Bezuidenhout plays with the Titleist Pro V1, one of the most well-known and best-performing golf balls on the tour. The ball provides an excellent yet unique all-around performance. Strong and reliable flight, especially in the wind, was praised by Golf Monthly.
