Yuto Katsuragawa continued Japan’s exceptional run on the DP World Tour with a hugely impressive three-shot victory at the ISPS Handa Championship at Taiheiyo Club Gotemba Course.
Katsuragawa took inspiration from Keita Nakajima’s win at the most recent European Tour event – the Hero Indian Open – while Rikuya Hoshino lifted the Qatar Masters trophy back in February.
Katsuragawa became just the sixth Japanese winner ever on the European Tour after a stunning 63 on Sunday to seal victory. And that incredible fourth-round effort helped him pick up a first DP World Tour victory on just his fifth start.
As a result, he is now set to take up full DP World Tour membership and – like many of his peers – has long-term aspirations of making it onto the PGA Tour one day. Let’s take a look at what is in his golf bag…

Fairway Woods
What Fairway Woods Does Yuto Katsuragawa Use?
In his fairway woods, Katsuragawa uses two TaylorMade Qi10 models at 15 and 18 degrees of loft. This is the same fixed hosel model that both Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy are using and we found it to be one of the best fairway woods of 2024 during testing. Easy to launch, with exceptional ball speed, it is little wonder that so many of the top players in the game are currently using this model.
He again has Fujikura Ventus Blue shafts in his fairway woods, using the 7-X in his 3-wood and 8-X in his 5-wood.
Irons

Katsuragawa is using a heavily blended combo set for his irons and is trusting undoubtedly some of the best iron models in the game to do so. His 4-iron is a Srixon ZX5 MK II, which we loved the feel and visual of during testing, while the remainder of his bag is made up of a combination of Titleist T150 (5-iron) and T100 irons (6-PW).
