Go outside the realm of traditional golf club styling with the Gold Series Drivers from Williams. Thanks to an exclusive partnership with Williams Formula 1, the Gold Series brings the technological and aerodynamic advances of the racetrack to golf, distinguishing Williams drivers from clubs on the course in performance and looks. Williams Sports elevates the performance of the Gold Series FW32 drivers to a new level by engineering three key aerodynamic features--the Trip, Winglets, and a Diffuser--directly into the FW32's shape to manage airflow and reduce drag. ?In addition, the FW32 boasts unique Densimet metal weighting for a maximized head shape and weight as well as a Williams Formulated Titanium (WFTi) Core for absolute formability, strength, and heat-treatment properties. Finally, the Gold Series FW32 is most notably distinguished by its exquisite 24-karat gold plating on all exposed metal surfaces with a rich metallic color to bring out the luster of the gold plating. The Gold Series is perfect for golfers looking for a combination of luxurious styling and the cutting edge ultra-high performance technology on the course.
Key Aerodynamic Design Features:
- Trip: The Trip redirects airflow over the crown of the driver to minimize the surface area of the crown that is affected by airflow contact. This is an important feature in the reduction of drag.
- Winglets: The Winglets manage and control the air flowing around the heel and toe section of the clubhead, creating a more consistent and stable path throughout the downswing and at impact.
- Diffuser: The Diffuser is a key component in diffusing and controlling the air the flow across the soleplate. Combining the Diffuser with the effectiveness of the 'Trip', the wake and density of airflow off the rear of the club is minimized for reduced drag on the clubhead.
Formula 1 Densimet Weighting:
Williams Sports entire golf product line utilizes Densimet for its weighting purposes. A by-product of the Williams F1 technology, Densimet is the second heaviest metal in the world. Williams uses Densimet in the FW32 racecar to bring the car up to the minimum race weight and to provide additional traction for the driver. Densimet is heavier than Tungsten and other materials traditionally used for weighting in the golf industry. By using Densimet, Williams Sports can maximize its design capabilities thanks to the reduced head-volume needed to create the same headweight when Tungsten or other materials are used. This is just another way that Williams Sports is bringing F1 technology to golf.
Williams Formulated Titanium (WFTi) Core:
Derived from the F1 team of engineers, WFTi is used in all Williams Sports drivers. Modeled after the SP-700 titanium commonly used in golf design, this specially formulated WFTi SP-700 titanium offers even greater formability, strength, and heat treatment properties than the original. Williams' WFTi material promotes longer drives and a longer driver lifespan.

The Williams Sports line of Woods and hybrids incorporates state of the art technology straight from the Williams F1 Race Team. Key elements from wind tunnel testing have been incorporated into the full line of metals. 3 Key elements have allowed us to increase clubhead speed by reducing drag on the clubhead. The combination of the Trip, Winglets, and Diffuser have allowed us to build a club that is more efficient and reduces drag by approximately 11%. The use of Densimet in the weight ports gives the club an ultra high MOI making the club more stable through the hitting area and proprietary Williams F1 Titanium is used in the clubface. Combine all these elements along with top of the line Fujikura shafts and you have the ultimate driver. Simply put, this technology will allow you to swing the club faster and keep the head more stable allowing you to hit the ball further and straighter.
