In the domestic golf ball market where golf equipment companies fiercely compete, Titleist has consistently maintained its position as the 'number one brand' this year as well.

According to the golf equipment distribution industry, including Golfzon Market, as of January to October this year, Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x ranked first and second in golf ball sales. Pro V1 has held the number one spot for three consecutive years since 2020, and Pro V1x rose from third place in Q4 2020 to second place last year, maintaining its sales ranking.

The new Pro V1 model released last year increased the number of dimples from 352 to 388. This technological enhancement was made to increase distance and allow the ball to fly more stably. Pro V1x also increased its dimple count from 328 to 348.

The Titleist representative golf balls, Pro V1 and Pro V1x, are the most used by players on major tours worldwide. Since the 1949 U.S. Open through 2022, they have ranked first in usage rate and winning rate on the U.S. PGA Tour for 74 consecutive years.

The New TOUR B by Bridgestone, made famous by Tiger Woods (USA), emerged as a rising power in the golf ball market by ranking second in sales in Q4 2020, and has maintained third place last year and this year, continuing its reputation. This product is suitable for golfers who want increased tee shot speed and more spin on short shots.

Bridgestone E12 Contact, which emphasizes straightness, distance, and wedge shot spin performance, ranked fourth in sales this year, and Volvik Triple Soft was within the top five through the third quarter. Since Q4 2020, the 4th and 5th positions in golf ball sales have alternated among Callaway, TaylorMade, Bridgestone, and Volvik, each promoting design and performance improvements.
