Max Homa Hits the Longest Drive in PGA Tour's ShotLink Era
Homa's Colossal Drive Shatters Records
During the third round of The Sentry in Hawaii, Max Homa made history by hitting the longest drive in the PGA Tour's ShotLink era, which has been tracking drive lengths since 1983.
Record-Breaking Distance
Homa's drive on the seventh hole at Kapalua measured an astonishing 477 yards, surpassing the previous record of 476 yards set by Davis Love III in 1983. Homa's drive was a mere yard longer than Love's, making it the narrowest margin of victory in the ShotLink era.
Unassuming Power
Homa is not known for his prodigious power off the tee, making his record-breaking drive even more remarkable. The 477-yard poke was an outlier for Homa, who typically averages around 295 yards off the tee.
Dominant Performance
Homa's record-breaking drive was just one highlight of his impressive performance at The Sentry. He went on to win the tournament by three strokes, solidifying his status as one of the most in-form players on the PGA Tour.
The record-breaking drive is a testament to Homa's skill and determination. It also highlights the increasingly competitive nature of the PGA Tour, where players are constantly pushing the boundaries of what is possible on the golf course.
