Behind the Design | 2024 Professional Championship Staff Bag and Accessories
Bourbon and Horse Racing—two things that are synonymous with Kentucky. The 2024 Professional Championship Staff Bag and Accessories feature details found in both pastimes.
Tiger, Rory, Scottie and Team TaylorMade will carry a variety of the Derby City inspired staff bag and accessories this week at Valhalla. Let’s go behind the details of the design of this year’s gear.
The blue checkered pattern on the staff bag mirrors the design of uniforms traditionally worn by the jockeys of Derby City. Below the Louisville inspired Taylor Made text is the beading seen on the base of cups that Mint Julep’s are traditionally served in. The panel inside the bag features mint leaves to continue the tip of the cap to Louisville’s most famous drink.
The rose flower seen on the valuables pouch represents the rose bed given to the winning horse of the Derby, one of horse racing’s long-lasting traditions.
Hidden details are aplenty in this year’s bag. On the accessories pouch you will find “Aged 45 Years” resembling the stamp seen on Bourbon bottles to indicate their life span. The 45 years represents TaylorMade’s existence from 1979 to 2024.
On the bottom of the bag, the TaylorMade logo is set in a design similar to a whiskey barrel with “Derby City” text right above it. The handle displays 1:59.40 which is the fastest time recorded in Louisville’s signature horse race. No detail is left behind with the TaylorMade T-Bug logo elegantly placed on each zipper.
The blue colourway continues on this year’s headcovers. The collection features a driver, fairway, hybrid, Spider and blade headcover. Mint leaves cover the front of the driver a clean blue back of the headcover with the T-bug logo.
A TaylorMade horseshoe is the signature feature on the checkered blue fairway headcover, while the hybrid headcover design emulates ice cubes in a mint julep cup.
The checkered blade headcover has a mint julep cup on top with a horseshoe on the side and the Spider headcover comes with a horse and jockey racing down the track of Derby City. On the back of the Spider headcover is the TaylorMade derby inspired text seen on the staff bag and a T-Bug strategically on the magnet of the headcover flap.
