Maybe he'll finally sell those Nikes to Tommy.

Tommy could easily get irons forged to the same spec using the original moulds, tiger did the same with his tgr irons. I don't think he'd really have much of an issue getting replacementsMaybe he'll finally sell those Nikes to Tommy.

He has been trying them for a while now and has indeed already been "captured" using them on camera.

Likewise, Tommy has been photographed using other blades, possibly even blades/prototypes made for Tiger if what I read/saw was correct.

Been trying them since the Ryder Cup but today is the first time he's gone on record to Confirm it

Tommy Fleetwood knew this day was coming. After playing most of last season with his last set of Nike VR Pro Blade irons — and striking out in an attempt to acquire a set from Paul Casey — Fleetwood appears to have made a change, as he was spotted with a set of unreleased TaylorMade irons with “P-7TW†stamped on the head during a practice round at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship.

"Official confirmation" eagle eyed people spotted it and leaked it a while back.

Key is in the fact Casey himself has confirmed it that there is likely a change ahead, doesn't matter what people have seen before he could try loads of irons and be spotted with them all but until he confirms what he likes then it's all irrelevant.

Whatever. it was hardly a secret, probably slightly better kept than Rose right enough.

It was 'known' JR wouldn't be at taylormade this year from late July/August last year. These guys spend months hitting/practicing with clubs before they put them in play

Yeah I like the look of the irons and wedges. Nice and clean looking, not too sure on the woods though.
I’d happily swap my family (except the dog) for those clubs!
i can see Justin getting DQ'd there's def more than 14 clubs in there

Seems weird that the 3 iron has a bit of a cavity but the 2 and the 4 don't? Oh hang on, there's a different 3 iron further down. I guess he's still comparing the different clubs.

Strange collection of clubs there. 4 iron is different from other irons.
Also I would be very concerned if he is still playing about with TM Woods and Vokey wedges. You would think having made the change, he would be fully committed to the Honma gear and simply wouldn't even have the other manufacturers in play.
I think it was a 10 club deal so that probably means he will forfeit cash if he doesn't play all irons and wedges or all irons and woods and would be surprised if he plays a 2 iron many weeks.

I suspect right now he is just trying different set ups and he will have ten homnas clubs in the bag when he plays
I expect he will stick with TM Woods and then go for irons and wedges in Homna
I don’t actually like the look of them really - something about them
And that putter is fugly - really fugly
Fleetwoods set up he is trying look nice -using the TM Blades

Maybe, but you know yourself - any kind of doubt with anything can cause guys problems.
Also v surprised on the putter. Not that he's changed brand, but that is looks to be quite a bit different. However, surely he has had pretty much full access to any and every putter going, so he must be pretty happy with the Axis.

Given that his trackman is in the background in one of the pics, I would think he is just comparing yardages ect with the different clubs. Maybe he just wants to compare the flight given the conditions at the courses he is playing this week.
Also I don't think he'll be worried about the cash, since he won ten mil at the end of September last year. He'll be more concerned about performance this week.
