\n\u201cThe main reason for that (the ball) is to start to learn how to hit these off-speed shots. I thought that’s actually a better golf ball for him through the bag. And he should be able to incorporate more of these off-speed shots and should be able to incorporate a wedge game that’s required for a top-10 player in the world. . . The wind didn’t move it as much, and even five yards of difference there is huge\u201d,<\/em> said Adrian Rietveld<\/strong> on Thor\u2019s switch to TP5.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\nR7 QUAD MINI PROVES RETRO WORKS ON TOUR<\/strong><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.mygolfway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/WITB-Thor-R7-Quad-Mini-13-5.jpg\")

\u201cI have a\u00a0<\/em>R7 Quad Mini 13.5\u00b0<\/u><\/em>\u00a0in the bag, and so does Thor. At least we have that in common. Except Thor hits his 300 yards.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\nFor him, it’s been a game changer when it comes to accuracy off the tee. For the year, he’s hit north of 60% of his fairways, which might not sound like a lot, but is well above average when you’re playing courses with tight fairways and both distance and accuracy are rewarded off the tee.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cBeing a 180-plus ball speed guy, the mini driver is kind of a safety for that. When he doesn’t feel comfortable with driver, it becomes almost like a 300-yard club to get him in play,\u201d<\/em> said Adrian Rietveld<\/strong> on Thor\u2019s R7 Quad Mini.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\nTHOR’S R7 QUAD MINI SPEC<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- HEAD:\u00a0<\/strong>R7 Quad Mini Driver<\/li>\n

Drive for show. Thor does that better than anyone and everyone I’ve ever seen. He employs a Spider Tour X double-bend. And his setup is both intentional and purposeful as Adrian insights yet again.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cYou can see how structured his practice is now, the drills, the process.

BALL STRIKING THOR<\/strong><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.mygolfway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Thors-P770-3-Iron.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
At the top of this article, we talked about Thor’s superior ball striking and how it starts from the tee. And it most certainly does. But his iron play is second to none as well. For the week, he gained +3.668 Approach to Green with his\u00a0P\u00b7Series irons. He ranked first in Greens in Regulation for the week (63\/72, 87.50%).<\/p>\n
Like a lot of players, Thor employs a combination of P\u00b7Series irons that are all tailored for what he wants from specific parts of his bag.<\/p>\n
