Tim Burke Gets His 2nd Title in 3 Years

All he needed in the finals was 394 yards, that is all.

Yeah, that sounds like lots to us mere mortals. But Tim Burke, 2013 World Long Drive champion, had smacked it over four hundred yards in each of the previous rounds... And he pretty a great deal needed it both instances.

The big shocker of the night time changed into while Jamie Sadlowski neglected the grid with ALL of his shots within the Round of Four. The opposition had taken a turn whilst the wind picked up all through the Round of Eight, quartering into the gamers from the left, however Jamie had efficiently negotiated it to take out Jeff Crittenden.

Then the tenth seed, Jeremy Easterly, who had quietly disenchanted each in shape with consistent if much less than awesome drives -- if you may name 380-yard drives "less than extraordinary" -- published a pressure and Jamie in reality lost his rhythm. Whether it become the wind, the clock, or simply looking it too much, Jamie failed to placed even one ball in the grid and become removed.

That introduced the suit all the way down to former champ Tim Burke and primary-timer Jeremy Easterly.

You can discover the video of the very last between Easterly and Burke at this hyperlink if you neglected the real competition and the video didn't embed properly above this paragraph. It's an outstanding shot.

I'm certain Tim Burke can be looking it again and again and over. After all, he's the 2015 champion now as properly.
