Krank Golf Powers Into Another Major: The 153rd Open Championship at Royal Portrush

Krank Golf continues its run on golf’s biggest stages—this time, at The 153rd Open Championship, held at the legendary Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Ireland. Known for its brutal winds, undulating fairways, and punishing pot bunkers, this classic links course is the ultimate test of both player and equipment. And once again, Krank Golf is in the fight.

From the blistering heat of The Masters at Augusta to the precise control needed on the narrow fairways of the U.S. Open, Krank’s Formula FIRE Drivers and Fairway Woods have proven themselves time and time again. Now, they face a new challenge: links golf at the highest level.

Engineered for the Elements

What sets Krank apart in these conditions? It starts with technology.

• Super-Hot Forged Beta Titanium Face: 4x harder than cast faces, delivering explosive ball speed. Enhances spring effect and ensures faster face recovery on every drive.
• 8.5 x 8.5 Bulge and Roll: Designed for superior forgiveness and accuracy, helping correct off-center hits in any condition
• MET (Maximum Energy Transfer): Channels every ounce of power into the ball for maximum distance—ideal for the unpredictable, wind-blown terrain of courses like Royal Portrush

In a tournament where players are often forced to keep the ball low, shape shots through crosswinds, and rely on precision over power—Krank delivers both.

DeChambeau Brings the Fire

Once again, Bryson DeChambeau brings his scientific edge and raw athleticism to the global stage, armed with the Formula FIRE PRO TOUR Driver—the same club he used to win the 2024 U.S. Open. While Bryson’s power is undeniable, it’s the driver’s ability to maintain control in harsh conditions that makes it so dangerous in a setting like The Open.

His presence with a Krank driver in hand doesn’t just represent another elite competitor. It represents the validation of Krank’s mission: to build clubs that not only dominate in distance but excel under the highest levels of pressure and performance.

Another Major. Another Milestone.

For Krank Golf, The 153rd Open Championship is more than just another tournament—it’s another milestone in a legacy of disruption. While other brands rely on tradition, Krank pushes forward with relentless innovation, proving once again that elite-level equipment doesn’t come from the mainstream—it comes from the bold.

As the wind howls across Royal Portrush, and the best players in the world battle for the Claret Jug, Krank Golf will be right there—in the bag, in the swing, and in the spotlight.
