Adrian Meronk has very much become a household name over the past couple of years and has cemented himself as one of the best Europeans in the game.
The Pole was extremely unlucky to miss out on representing Team Europe at the 2023 Ryder Cup. However, that’s well behind him after storming through the field with a pair of 66s over the weekend to emerge victorious at the 2023 Andalucia Masters less than a month after the Ryder Cup concluded.
Meronk’s most recent victory is his second of 2023 (third of the season), and his fourth in the last 16 months – making the Ping Tour player one of the most decorated players in the professional game over this time period. He’s had the most victories on the DP World Tour since winning his first title at the 2022 Irish Open at Mount Juliet.
Our Features Editor, Michael Catling, recently caught up with Adrian Meronk, who told Today’s Golfer how much he enjoys playing golf in Australia. This may be because of the success he’s enjoyed over there – picking up his second DP World Tour victory back in December 2022 at the ISPS Handa Australian Open.
That week he beat home favorite, Adam Scott, who he played the final round with. Meronk said it was a special moment to beat the former World No.1.
“He was always my role model growing up… but beating him in the final group in front of the big crowds in Australia is just quite an unbelievable experience.”
The 30-year-old remains the only Polish golfer to have won an event on the DP World Tour and I’m sure he’ll add many more victories to his CV over the coming years.
Being a Ping staffer, the majority of Meronk’s bag is made up of Ping equipment and while he’s having much success it’s unlikely he’ll be switching allegiances anytime soon.
Let’s take a look at the specific models the Polish star elects to use.

Fujikura are leaders in performance shafts, and the brand is honored to regularly be the #1 driver and wood shaft on the PGA, LPGA, and DP World Tours.
In 2022 the brand’s Ventus platform mopped up 44.5% of all available PGA Tour wins, with the Masters and Open champions both playing the brand’s headline shaft unpaid. At the 2023 Masters, 39.1% of players used Fujikura driver shafts, with five of the final Top 10 choosing the brand’s super stable models.
In short Fujikura shafts are the shaft of choice of the world’s very best players.
