The Open Championship bag and accessories roundup

Published

Jul 16, 2025

We look forward to the major championships each year for a lot of reasons, and one of those is checking out the cool gear that is created for them. This week at Royal Portrush, we have spotted some great accessories from almost all of the brands out there. Here are some of the ones that stand out from our photos on the ground.

Check out our photos from the 2025 Open Championship

Scotty Cameron

Mutton Chops is the name of the sheep that Scotty Cameron has on their headcover for The Open. Portrush has a rich heritage of sheep grazing in its lush grass, and Scotty has mallet, mid-mallet, and blade versions of the headcover. These here are the Circle T versions for tour players where the retail cover, which is already sold out, has Scotty’s seven-point crown on the side.

TaylorMade

There is a steam train whose track runs next to Royal Portrush, and TaylorMade brought that locomotive style to its staff bag. Everything from big rivets to the red, green, and gold trim pays tribute to the line that has been in use since 1855. On the small front pocket, you have your ticket to celebrate The Open Championship!

Cobra

Northern Ireland is well known for its whiskey production and tartan fabrics. Cobra got both right with their staff bag and headcovers. The sides of the bag look like a whiskey cask with its wood grain, and it is highlighted by a wonderful green tartan pattern. You can see an “Aged 52 years” logo that refers to aging whisky in barrels while the “52 years” pays homage to Cobra being founded in 1973.

Srixon

A deep mahogany and navy blue color are used to celebrate The Open Championship by Srixon this year. The bag has matching headcovers and around the base are the years Royal Portrush has hosted The Open (1951, 2019, 2025).

Titleist

While Titleist staff players don’t have a unique bag for The Open they did create a classy staff bag in the merchandise tent! Simple navy blue with white accents and logos go great with the oldest major championship in the sport.

Callaway

A beautiful mural of the ocean and a castle are not something you see on a golf bag outside of The Open! Callaway celebrates the importance of the Atlantic Ocean to the city and golf courses of Northern Ireland. You can see the putter headcovers have 3D moss growing between the bricks and all of the zipper pulls on the bag are small life preservers!

GolfWRX Staff

A reminder from your friends at GolfWRX: Father’s Day is June 21. And as we do every year, we’re rounding up the best gifts for dad.

As we say every year, there’s no better golf-related Father’s Day gift than a round of golf with pops. Be it a country club or your favorite muni, take the time to get together to play 18 if you can.

Let’s get to the gifts.

Ghost Golf Qualifier Diamond Polo

We like the new polos that Ghost is offering, as the fabric and fit are so good. These new Qualifier Collection polos breathe well, are lightweight, stretch with your swing, and of course look great. You can wear them on the course, in the office, or just out at a casual event and they will fit right in.

STR8-Strip Grip Tape Remover

If your dad is an equipment aficionado and tinkers with his clubs, this tool works wonders. Removing grip tape has never been easier, just put a little head on the tape and the STR8-Strip peals it right off the shaft without any damage.

Why Golf: Putting Thing

When it comes to practice, it is good to have a purpose. This “Putting Thing” sure does it. We know from personal experience how challenging it can be and how rewarding it is on the practice green. This also provides some competition for your kiddo to see who will unload the dishwasher or do the next chore around the house.

OluKai Lae‘ahi Men’s Breathable Slip-On Shoes

Riding to and from the course in style and comfort is always a good thing. If you’re in a hurry, it’s a nice feature to slide into your shoes and get to the tee time. For the post-game shoe, at your locker or while putting your clubs away in the car. Nice to slide into a shoe that looks good anywhere. Pair that with meeting the family for dinner, no need to change!

Therabody Theragun Relief

A little wellness goes a long way. Keeping loose is a good way to go when it comes to the weekend game or treatment during the week. If there is a little ache or pain, the Theragun is there to help out. Help loosen up the back for a pre-game warm-up or cool-down.

World Cup golf apparel

Something for the soccer dads. Embrace the World Cup fever this summer on the course with custom gear to support the nation of your choice.

FootJoy Pro SL spikeless golf shoes

Personalized Titleist Pro V1 golf balls

The No. 1 ball in golf is a safe bet, and the Pro V1 fits the largest chunk of the bell curve if you don’t know what ball pops plays. Add personalization for a, well, personal touch!

With the PGA Tour across the border in Canada this week, GolfWRX Tour Photographer Greg Moore stayed stateside and headed to the OccuNet Classic presented by Amarillo National Bank in Amarillo, Texas.

It’s always interesting to see what the guys are playing on the KFT, and this week certainly hasn’t disappointed so far, with some incredible wedge stamping on display.

At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals who all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.

It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.

Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, @HuskerFlyer is sharing a Scotty Cameron GOLO with a BGT Stability Tour2 2022 M Edition shaft. While the putter is certainly enviable, the Augusta-inspired shaft is equally noteworthy.

From the listing:
