The longest drive: 437 yards, by Brett Wetterich. Imagine playing in his pro-am group, proudly banging one out there 287 yards, almost in the fairway. And then .........

I was curious about similar data for the LPGA, but I couldn't find any.
It wasnt that long ago Gary Player was getting a lot of stick and laughed at for saying the day would come when tour players would hit 400 yards. They said that was years away, the old course at St andrews is as good as obsolete for these guys now as is many more of the older courses.
