The clubs Branden Grace used to shoot the first-ever 62 in major championship history

On an uncharacteristically calm, sunny Saturday at the British Open, Branden Grace shot the first-ever 62 in a major championship. After Friday's brutal wind and rain, Royal Birkdale suddenly was gettable. Grace, who has been with Callaway since 2011, capitalized by making eight birdies and ten pars in his third round.
Callaway's Jeff Newton says Grace has been opting for low-spin drivers the last few seasons, a trend that led him to the Epic Sub Zero driver that’s in his bag now. Before the event, Grace took out his three-wood and put in the Apex Utility 2-iron to have another option to flight it low on the links course. He hit 10 of the 14 fairways at Royal Birkdale on Saturday. With his Callaway X-Forged irons, he missed only two greens. Here are the rest of the clubs he used during his historic round.
