Titleist staff player Trillium Rose breaks down three essential wedge shots to help you handle any tight situation around the green:

  1. Chip Shot – a low-trajectory, run-along-the-ground shot ideal for tight lies. Trillium emphasises controlling the bounce and minimizing wrist movement.
  2. Pitch Shot – a medium-height shot with a soft landing, suitable when you need a bit more loft. She focuses on maintaining a steeper lofted swing, soft hands, and landing the ball just past the green.
  3. Flop Shot – a high-trajectory, soft-landing shot for clearing hazards or quick-stopping on slick greens. Trillium highlights opening the face and using a big, controlled swing.
