Kristoffer Reitan didn’t just make his family proud with his victory in the 2026 Truist Championship. In winning the tournament, he also made Ping, his sole club manufacturer and sponsor, very happy.
The Norwegian’s setup is a perfect example of modern TOUR gear: forgiving, high-lofted fairway woods instead of utility clubs and hybrids, 4-9 iron sets, and a bag that features four wedges for versatility when hitting from the “aim for the pin” zone. Everything in the bag is designed to tighten dispersion, control spin, and eliminate costly misses.
And unlike some TOUR setups filled with secret prototypes and experimental nonsense, most of Reitan’s clubs are equipment regular golfers can actually buy. Assuming they’re comfortable turning “just browsing” into a four-figure credit card experience.
Here’s a look at the exact setup Reitan used to win his first PGA TOUR title — and why it works so well for elite players.
Driver: Ping G440 K (9 Degrees)
Reitan used a Ping G440 K driver with a Mitsubishi Tensei 1K White 60 TX shaft. The G440 lineup first released in 2025.
The “K” model prioritizes forgiveness and stability while still keeping spin low — exactly what modern TOUR players require. Elite golfers do what they can to squeeze out extra distance off the tee, while avoiding disaster when they start gripping the club tighter under pressure.
The Tensei 1K White shaft is built for aggressive swingers, offering low launch, low spin, and exceptional stability through transition.
Basically, this setup is built to hit missiles without accidentally visiting another fairway.
Fairway Woods: Ping G440 Max 3-Wood + 7-Wood
Reitan carried:
- Ping G440 Max 3-wood (15°)
- Ping G440 Max 7-wood (21°)
Both models launched publicly in 2025.
The 7-wood continues to explode in popularity on tour because it launches high, lands soft, and performs beautifully from rough. Better golfers increasingly prefer them over long irons because modern courses demand towering approach shots into firm greens.
His shafts:
- 3-wood → Mitsubishi Tensei 1K White 80 TX
- 7-wood → Mitsubishi Tensei 1K Black 65 TX
The heavier TX profiles help stronger players tighten dispersion and maintain control during aggressive swings.
Translation: fewer surprises, more lasers.
Irons: Ping Blueprint S (4-9)
Reitan played Ping Blueprint S irons from 4-iron through 9-iron with KBS Tour X shafts. The Blueprint S irons debuted in 2024.
This is a classic modern better-player setup.
The Blueprint S offers compact shaping and precision while still providing slightly more forgiveness than traditional blades. TOUR players want control, but Reitan also appreciates not getting punished for being half a groove off-center.
The KBS Tour X shafts provide stable launch and smooth feel, making them popular among high-speed players who still want responsiveness.
These irons are built for trajectory control, shot-shaping, and consistent spin — basically everything elite golfers obsess over.
Wedges: Ping S259 (46-S, 50-S, 54-S, 58-S)
Reitan used Ping S259 wedges paired with True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 shafts. The S259 wedges released in 2025.
This setup is all about consistency and versatility around the greens. Better players want wedges that can hit low spinners, high soft shots, and controlled partial wedges without dramatically changing feel or launch.
The S400 shafts remain a tour and average Joe favorite because the slightly heavier feel improves rhythm and distance control on finesse shots.
At the highest level, wedge play becomes less about “getting it close” and more about controlling spin like a NASA engineer.
Putter: Ping PLD Custom Ally Blue H (White Finish)
Reitan rolled a Ping PLD Custom Ally Blue H putter in a custom white finish. The PLD line first launched publicly in 2022.
The Ally Blue H blends mallet forgiveness with a cleaner, more compact profile preferred by better players. It offers stability and alignment help without looking like a kitchen appliance behind the ball.
The white finish also frames the ball beautifully and makes alignment easier — plus it looks fantastic on TV – we noticed!
Golf Ball: Titleist Pro V1
Reitan played the 2025 Titleist Pro V1.
The Pro V1 remains one of the most popular balls on TOUR because it provides consistent spin, reliable flight, and excellent greenside control. Better golfers prioritize predictability more than anything else.
