Gary Woodland won his first title since the 2019 US Open with an emotional victory at the 2026 Texas Children's Houston Open .
The heartwarming win comes after surgery to remove a lesion on his brain and the honest admission of PTSD following the operation and recovery.
Woodland was back to his best in Houston to win by a comfortable five-stroke margin, and he did so with a number of different manufacturers in a very mixed bag.
The Cobra staffer had the Cobra OPTM Max-K driver in play, which is the brand's forgiving model with 10,000 MOI .
He has driven it incredibly well on tour this year and currently ranks 2nd in driving distance with 324.6 yards.
Woodland paired that with a Ping G440 Max fairway wood in 15 degrees of loft with a Accra Tour Z Xtreme shaft.
He bridges the gap to his irons with a Wilson Staff Model 18° utility, which is fitted with a KBS Tour C-Taper 130 X - a shaft he also uses in his irons.
The 41-year-old is a former Wilson staffer and won the US Open with Wilson irons in 2019 at Pebble Beach.

He has a combo set of irons, with Cobra King Tours in his 4- and 5-irons, with Cobra King MB blades from 6-9.
He gained over 5.5 strokes on the field with his irons during his Houston Open win to rank 7th.

Woodland has three Cobra wedges along with a Cleveland RTZ Tour Rack lob wedge.
He putts with a prototype Scotty Cameron GoLo Tour with a center-shaft, which has been a new addition to the bag.
He ranked 1st in Strokes Gained: Putting for the week in Houston with 8.325.

His ball is the Titleist Pro V1 .
