What’s In The Bag: Akshay Bhatia
Last updated:
What golf clubs does Akshay Bhatia use? Let’s take a look inside the bag of the two-time PGA Tour winner.
Akshay Bhatia turned professional at the age of 17 in 2019. The TravisMathew ambassador has racked up two victories on the PGA Tour and nine top-10 finishes. Bhatia’s first victory came at the 2023 Barracuda Championship, and his most recent victory was achieved at the 2024 Valero Texas Open.
Having multiple victories on the PGA Tour before the age of 23 means that Bhatia has become just the tenth golfer in the last 50 years to win more than once at 22 or younger. Thanks to the Californian’s wire-to-wire success at the 2024 Valero Texas Open he earned himself a place in the field at the Masters.
While 2024 was the first time Bhatia played in the Masters, it wasn’t the first time he’d visited Augusta National. The two-time PGA Tour winner competed in the inaugural Drive, Chip and Putt National Finals in 2014, at the age of 12. Ten years on Bhatia headed back as the first golfer who competed in the Drive, Chip and Putt to play in the Masters.
Both of the American’s victories on the PGA Tour were hard-fought. However, his most recent didn’t look as though it would be. Denny McCarthy chased Bhatia down at the Valero Texas Open despite being 6 shots back at the turn. Ultimately, the pair baddled it out in a playoff. In the playoff, Bhatia prevailed to earn north of $1,5000,000.
In July 2023, Bhatia first tasted success on the PGA Tour when he won the Barracuda Championship against a slightly weakened field, given that the event was played alongside The Open. While it’s still a massive achievement to win on the PGA Tour, I’m sure Bhatia will be glad to have won his second PGA Tour title against a much stronger field in San Antonio.
Let’s take a look at the equipment used by Bhatia during his most recent victory on the PGA Tour and the equipment he’ll be hoping to put him back at the top of the leaderboard.
