GolfWRX.comJayson Tatum, an NBA superstar who plays for the Boston Celtics, played in the rain-affected FedEx St. Jude Championship Pro-Am on Wednesday alongside Jon Rahm.
Tatum is an avid golfer, but this was his first PGA TOUR pro-am experience. Knowing that he’d be playing alongside Rahm, Tatum said he wasn’t able to sleep the night before due to the nerves.

Most notably, Tatum uses extra-large grips to suit his extra-large hands. He also uses a custom baby blue Jordan brand golf bag with his “JT” logo, a mixed set of irons (his stepfather/caddie says he’s still testing out new PXG irons), and he uses a custom Scotty Cameron TourType SSS putter, which is stamped “Deuce,” the nickname for his son Jayson Jr. Tatum also uses a custom-stamped “Big Deuce” Titleist golf ball.
