Bridgestone Golf couldn’t ask for a much better introduction for its new Tour B with MindSet golf balls, as Chris Gotterup’s new outlook has bagged two PGA Tour wins in three starts in 2026 with his new Tour B X.

“This was another great highlight in my career, and I couldn’t have done it without Bridgestone and the new Tour B X with MindSet,” said Gotterup. “With the new Tour B X, I’m getting max speed and distance off the tee, and total control when it matters most around the greens. As far as I’m concerned, this is the best golf ball I’ve ever played.”
The new Tour B series golf balls ($54.99) are built with VeloSurge core-mantle integration technology, featuring a denser mantle material pushing the moment of inertia (MOI) to the limit for increased ball speed and distance. Testing with Bridgestone tour staffers Gotterup and Jason Day – as well as amateur players of varying swing speeds – produced average gains of 2.3 mph in ball speed and 8.7 yards in distance across the board.
The “Reactiv iQ” cover on Tour B series balls adheres to the clubface longer, generating spin and precision control on shots around the green, the company says.
The Tour B balls with MindSet are designed with input from Day to help players separate analytical thinking from athletic performance. A visual cue printed directly on the golf ball serves as a reminder of a simple three-step process: identify the target; visualize the shot path; and focus on the green dot.
The Tour B family of golf balls includes the X and XS for swing speeds more than 105 mph and the RX and RXS for swings speeds under 105 mph.
