January 13, 2026 –\u00a0<\/strong>Engineered to bring golfers of all skill levels more spin and control into and around greens, PING<\/strong> introduced the s259 wedge<\/strong> series<\/strong> today, its next generation of custom fit and custom-built specialty wedges.<\/p>\n The tour-proven s259 wedges are offered in 25 loft\/grind combinations in two finishes (Chrome and Midnight) and are available for custom fitting and pre-sell beginning today at authorized PING golf shops around the world.<\/p>\n \u201cThe new s259 wedges are already winning on Tour and they continue to find their way into players\u2019 bags around the world on a weekly basis,\u201d<\/em> said John K. Solheim<\/strong>, PING CEO & President. \u201cThe pros love the clean look, versatility and, most importantly, the ability to launch and spin their shots with precise control.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThe s259 wedges represent our on-going commitment to advancing wedge performance and expanding fitting options for golfers of all skill levels.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve refined two of the grinds and added some loft\/grind combinations to better fit more golfers with an emphasis on proper gapping. With six grinds designed to perform in a variety of playing conditions and techniques, we\u2019re confident we have a wedge to fit every golfer.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re also excited to announce we\u2019ve updated our WebFit Wedge app to help golfers find the s259 wedges that best fit their games,\u201d John K. Solheim<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0added.<\/p>\n \u201cThe reliable and easy-to-use fitting tool has been used by hundreds of thousands of golfers since we introduced it two years ago. The app doesn\u2019t require downloading, logging in or signing up for anything. It will continue to be accessible via a QR code in golf shops and on ping.com. We strongly encourage golfers to use the app in their wedge-buying process.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n High Friction, High Spin<\/strong><\/p>\n The s259 wedge\u2019s wheel-cut grooves and machined face combine with an advanced face-blast technology to enhance the surface texture and maximize friction at impact, generating higher spin and control for a lower, more penetrating launch.<\/p>\n The 54-to-62-degree options feature more tightly spaced MicroMax grooves. The 46-to-52-degree wedges are milled for greater control on full shots. Extensive player testing indicates exceptional performance in wet and dry conditions.<\/p>\n \u201cOur wedge-face technology has earned a strong reputation for its ability to not only create high spin with control, but retain it in all types of conditions,\u201d<\/em> said John K. Solheim<\/strong>.<\/p>\n \u201cConsidering it\u2019s rare when a shot doesn\u2019t encounter some level of moisture or loss of friction, this type of control provides a clear and convincing short-game advantage.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Available in a wide range of loft and grind combinations in two performance-enhancing finishes. The proven Hydropearl 2.0 Chrome is hydrophobic, helping repel moisture for control and consistency. The darker Midnight finish provides an attractive, anti-glare appearance. (Midnight finish only in the SS grind).<\/p>\n Tour-Inspired Performance<\/strong><\/p>\n The 8620 carbon steel head is cast and combines with a larger, re-shaped elastomer insert behind the face to produce a Tour-preferred feel. The eye-pleasing head shape captures the ball at address and a refined hosel transition and full-length bottom groove help create a clean, square look.<\/p>\n Progressive hosel shaping and refined heel height provide a smooth transition from wedges into short irons. The CG locations vary by loft to match the performance intent of the wedge.<\/p>\n \u201cA lot goes into the wedge design that\u2019s not readily noticeable,\u201d<\/em> said John K. Solheim<\/strong>. \u201cEverything from CG location to offset can vary by loft to optimize the primary role of the wedge.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n \u201cFor example, our lower- lofted wedges are designed for full shots, so we position the CG to increase ball speed and improve gapping. In higher-lofted wedges, there is more visual offset to provide the player more confidence when manipulating the clubface. It\u2019s a perfect example of what we call custom engineering.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Find Your Grind<\/strong><\/p>\n The new s259 wedge series continues PING\u2019s extensive offering of six grinds (S, H, B, T, W, E), with refinements to the \u201cE\u201d and \u201cT\u201d options and the addition of 50\u00b0W and 52\u00b0W lofts, which incorporate a wider, more forgiving sole and blend seamlessly into the entire PING iron lineup.<\/p>\n The E-grind was re-shaped in the s259 to give it a more familiar look at address while maintaining high performance from the sand and slightly-open-faced shots. The s259 T-grind features a steeper trail edge, allowing the face to sit very low on open-faced shots.<\/p>\n \u201cFitting for the ideal sole grind remains a key to unlocking improved wedge performance in the new s259 series,\u201d<\/em> said John K. Solheim<\/strong>.<\/p>\n \u201cWe work closely with our Tour staff to ensure their needs are met and at the same time, we\u2019re focusing on a selection of grinds and lofts that will help all golfers improve their short games. That includes grinds that are more forgiving and grinds that are more versatile. It\u2019s one of the reasons getting custom fit for wedges is so important.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Sole Grind Descriptions\/Loft Options:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cS\u201d Grind:<\/strong> Fits a wide range of players and conditions. A mid-bounce design supports square-faced and full shots, while heel and trail-edge relief offer added greenside creativity. Available in 46\u00b0, 48\u00b0, 50\u00b0, 52\u00b0, 54\u00b0, 56\u00b0, 58\u00b0, 60\u00b0.<\/p>\n \u201cH\u201d Grind:<\/strong> Inspired by the PING Wrx half-moon grind, the H ensures versatility in softer conditions. It accommodates various face and handle positions and supports steeper swings with excellent control and turf interaction. Available in 54\u00b0, 56\u00b0, 58\u00b0, 60\u00b0.<\/p>\n \u201cB\u201d Grind:<\/strong> Tailored for shallow attack angles and a square setup, the B grind features a low bounce profile that sits tight to the turf. Its wider sole provides forgiveness in firmer conditions, for full and finesse shots. Available in 58\u00b0, 60\u00b0.<\/p>\n \u201cT\u201d Grind:<\/strong> Has the lowest effective bounce at 6\u00b0. It\u2019s the most versatile option and features steeper trail-edge relief to make open-face shots easier and more controlled. Performs exceptionally well on tight lies across medium to firm conditions. Available in 58\u00b0, 60\u00b0, 62\u00b0.<\/p>\n \u201cW\u201d Grind:<\/strong> Maximum forgiveness through the turf. Best fits a player with a steep angle of attack who might have a lot of shaft lean and prefers the look of a specialty wedge with more forgiveness in their scoring clubs. Available in 50\u00b0, 52\u00b0, 54\u00b0, 56\u00b0, 58\u00b0, 60\u00b0.<\/p>\n \u201cE\u201d Grind:<\/strong> Eye2-style dishing in the mid-sole delivers softer, more controlled shots from tightly mown areas around the green. Wider back-edge bounce preserves reliable, confidence-building performance for bunker shots. Available in 58\u00b0, 60\u00b0.<\/p>\n New Dyla-Grip<\/strong><\/p>\n The new Dyla-Grip advances wedge performance through hand-placement indicators for more versatility around the green. The proprietary grip is \u00be” longer with a reduced taper and marked with indicators for gripping down, leaning the shaft and manipulating the face to play with more precision.<\/p>\n \u201cWe look at every club as an entire system,\u201d<\/em> ends\u00a0John K. Solheim<\/strong>. \u201cThis is especially important in wedges due to the variety of shots you\u2019re hitting. With the PING Dyla-Grip, we\u2019re providing subtle markings on the grip to give you the versatility and confidence to grip down, open the face or lean the shaft in either direction. All three of those techniques can lead to a better short game.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n PING s259 WEDGES SPECIFICATIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n January 13, 2026 –\u00a0Engineered to bring golfers of all skill levels more spin and control into and around greens, PING introduced the s259 wedge series today, its next generation of custom fit and custom-built specialty wedges.
