In 1997, John Daly became the first golfer on the PGA Tour to average more than 300 yards per drive (302 to be exact). That year, he was more than 30 yards longer than the average Tour player.
In 1980 (the first year that the PGA Tour’s driving distance stats are available), Dan Pohl led the field while averaging 274.3 yards per drive. The Tour average was a meek 256.89 yards.

Since then, the average driving distance has steadily increased, rocketing upwards in the ‘90s and early 2000s. For 13 years — from 1994 until 2006 — the average increased every year, which is the longest such string since 1980. During that stretch, Daly led the Tour off the tee eight years in a row.
In this video, Neil Tappin explains how he organises his golf bag so that everything required for 18 holes is as easily accessible as possible. With many different pockets to choose from, knowing how to organise your golf bag can be tricky... here's how Neil does it!
ATLANTA – Patrick Cantlay will take a lead of anywhere between two (over Tony Finau) and 10 strokes (over five players) into the opening round of the season-ending TOUR Championship at East Lake, which will decide the winner of the FedExCup. All can agree on that.
What is less clear is how significant that is.
“I don't know another format even remotely close to this,” said Cantlay, who in winning last week’s BMW Championship was +14.58 Strokes Gained: Putting, a PGA TOUR record. “I'm going to do my best to throw that out the window and try and treat it like any other golf tournament because the best chance for me succeeding is shooting the lowest score possible.”
Check out the best shots from the epic 6-hole playoff between Patrick Cantlay and Bryson DeChambeau at the 2021 BMW Championship, where Cantlay came out victorious.
With this week’s Solheim Cup and the 43rd Ryder Cup being played in just three weeks' time, we will once again get to see and enjoy the game’s premier Match Play competitions. These types of events don’t happen often in Professional golf.
With Match Play being less of the norm today, as opposed to stroke play, the question that comes up is how do you prepare for, or play in Match Play format events? Is there a strategy or game plan one should have?
In this video, Golf Monthly's Sam Tremlett looks at the data around how far amateur golfers drive it. He takes shot-tracking data supplied by Arccos for both men and women to provide an illustration of how far normal golfers drive the ball. He also compares this to the stats from the professional ranks. This video offers a fascinating insight into how far normal golfers actually drive it!
JERSEY CITY, N.J. – A couple beers last Saturday and good conversation with those closest to him was enough to get Harold Varner III back in the right frame of mind.
He had a self-described “meltdown” earlier that day after flying the green with his approach shot to Sedgefield’s 11th hole in the third round of the Wyndham Championship. Don’t worry, there were no broken clubs. Just a bad attitude. But it was unacceptable to Varner.
“Having a bad attitude probably makes me more mad than … playing bad golf,” he said Thursday, after shooting a first-round 66 at THE NORTHERN TRUST. “That's the only thing you control. You don't really control what you're going to shoot or where your golf ball is going to end up, but you control how you approach each shot.”
