The sport of long drive doesn’t usually bring to mind the phrase “It’s a game of inches,” but that’s exactly what it turned out to be for Kyle Berkshire on Monday (AEDT). Twice.
There were a couple conditions working in Berkshire’s favour. For one, he was at 6,700 feet of elevation. And for another, he had a 22mph tailwind. But good luck to anyone trying to beat this guy.
In two-plus years, the strapping 6-foot-3, 97-kilogram, 22-year-old Berkshire has moved to No.1 on the Long Drive circuit with power produced by staggering speed.
