Episode Details

What does it take to become the longest hitter in golf history? Most people see the 400-yard drives. They don't see the years of training, the pressure of performing on national television, the sacrifices behind becoming the best in the world, or the mindset required to stay there. In this episode of Digital Social Hour, Sean Kelly sits down with Kyle Berkshire, one of the greatest long drive competitors of all time. Kyle breaks down how he became a World Long Drive Champion, the moment he realized he was better than everyone else, the pressure of competing live on Golf Channel, and why he's now balancing competitive golf, content creation, business opportunities, and life beyond long drive.
