Matteo Manassero What’s In The Bag?
Not so long ago, Matteo Manassero was one of the brightest upcoming talents in the game, with the Italian becoming the youngest-ever winner on the DP World Tour at just 17 years and 188 days.
By the time he had turned 20, he was a four-time winner on the DP World Tour, including the circuit’s flagship tournament in 2013, the BMW PGA Championship.
Inexplicably, Manassero suffered a downturn in form that saw him drop into the 1000s of the World Golf Rankings, with the Italian losing his DP World Tour card in 2018. However, he has fought back, regained his tour card, and at the 2024 Jonsson Workwear Open, he won his first DP World Tour event in 3,942 days!

His TSR3 is fitted with a Fujikura Ventus TR Red 6 X shaft.

Hybrid
What Hybrid Does Matteo Manassero Use?
Manassero opts for a 19-degree TS3 hybrid to bridge the gap between his fairway woods and iron set. Always a tricky area of the bag to navigate with the options of using a high lofted fairway, or even a utility iron, the Italian player does so with one of the best hybrids.
Manassero is not alone in using an older model hybrid or fairway wood. This is a notoriously tricky area of the bag to get right so often when tour pros find something they’re comfortable with here, it stays in for a long time.
