What’s In The Bag: Neal Shipley (August 2025 update)
Last updated:
Today’s Golfer dives into the bag of amateur sensation, Neal Shipley, to discover what equipment he’s playing with.
Most of us in the golfing world are now very familiar with Neal Shipley. However, if you’re someone who isn’t and you’re currently asking – who is Neal Shipley – hopefully that article will help.
As the winner of the low amateur award at the 2024 Masters, Shipley burst onto the scene. He gained entry into the 2024 Masters and 2024 US Open after finishing as runner-up to Nick Dunlap in the 2023 US Amateur. Not terrible form from the American.
That 4&3 loss to now PGA Tour winner, Dunlap, also earned Shipley a place in the field for the 2024 US Open. His Major form has been pretty impressive for an amateur golfer.
After gaining his PGA Tour card in 2025, Shipley will be competing against some of the best in the world week in week out after a stellar season on the Korn Ferry Tour. Shipley won two Korn Ferry events in 2025, impressively mounting final-round comebacks to claim both, while he also has seven other top-10s to his name.
With his PGA Tour debut just over the horizon for Shipley, let’s take a look at what equipment he’s currently using in 2025…
