Cleveland RTZ

If you rewind 20–30 years, Cleveland was the obvious choice when the world’s best players picked their wedges – and naturally that influence spread all the way down to everyday golfers as well. Now they’re back where they belong: right at the top. With players like Hideki Matsuyama, Brooks Koepka and Minjee Lee on the roster, it’s clear that Cleveland is once again one of the hottest wedge brands on the market.

The Cleveland RTZ is proof of exactly that. Everything here is built around delivering feel, control and consistency in every shot. The major innovation is the material – a completely new steel alloy that provides a softer feel than previous models while also improving durability and overall performance. You notice it immediately at impact: soft, solid and incredibly consistent – exactly what you want from a wedge around the greens.

From a performance perspective, the RTZ is designed to give you confidence in every situation. The grooves grip the ball efficiently and help generate excellent spin, while the club design makes it easy to control both distance and trajectory – whether you’re hitting a simple pitch or attempting a more advanced shot around the green.

When it comes to sole grinds, Cleveland has created a clear and thoughtful lineup.

• The Low grind is aimed at players who want to be creative and play plenty of finesse shots – with extra relief in the heel, toe and trailing edge, it’s easy to open the face and vary your shot-making.
• The Mid grind is the most versatile all-round option. Its V-shaped sole glides smoothly through the turf and provides stability in most conditions.
• The Full grind is the most forgiving choice, offering more bounce and a rounder leading edge to help prevent heavy strikes – ideal in bunkers or on softer turf.
• In addition, there’s the ADAPT grind, developed with inspiration from tour players. It features grooves across the entire face and a higher toe profile, making it perfect for open-face shots and more creative play around the greens.
