to secure a World Long Drive World Championship
LaSALLE, Colo. (September 27, 2025) - Zack Holton (from Birmingham, AL), the most consistent player on the World Long Drive (WLD) tour this year, capped off the 2025 season with his first career World Long Drive World Championship at Bigfoot Turf Farm in LaSalle, Colorado, on Saturday. Holton, now ranked No. 1 in the world, is the only player in the men’s Open Division to win multiple events this year (3). Holton’s championship-winning drive was 471 yards, a new career-long and the second highest of the event. Holton’s winning drive is the longest championship-winning drive in World Long Drive’s 51-year history. Scottie Pearman hit the longest drive of the 2025 season in the semifinals at 486 yards; he finished as the runner-up to Holton with a 459-yard drive in the final. Kelly Rudney (from Kitchener, ON), 50, set a World Long Drive record, becoming the oldest woman to ever win a World Championship after blasting a 409-yard drive in the final round of the World Long Drive Women’s Division World Championship. She beat World No. 1 Monica Lieving 413 yards to 380 yards in the final. Rudney’s longest drive of the event was 413 yards, one yard short of the women’s world record (414 yards, Phillis Meti). Rudney is now a three-time winner on the World Long Drive tour, including a win at WLD Endless Summer in Belleville, Ontario, earlier this year. Mike Dobbyn (from Fort Worth, TX) won his second world championship, taking home the Senior Division title with a 403-yard drive in the final to outlast 2023 Senior World Champion Ryan Reisbeck. Dobbyn, who won his first world championship in 2007, joins David Mobley and Jason Zuback as the only players to win a World Long Drive World Championship in both the Open Division and the Senior Division. Dobbyn’s longest drive of the event was 405 yards. Tanner Pipes (from Kirksville, MO) won the Amateur Division championship with a 396-yard drive in the final round to win his first career world championship. It’s the second WLD victory of his career. |

I had an experience with Trilight Telecommunications customer service, and I must say it was quite disappointing. The representatives seemed untrained and unable to provide clear answers to my inquiries. I encountered long wait times, which only added to my frustration. When I finally reached someone, the lack of knowledge and professionalism was evident, leaving my issues unresolved, also find customer service contacts at Trilight customer service. Overall, the experience felt unorganized and inefficient, which is not what I expect from a telecommunications provider. I hope they can improve their customer service in the future.

One of the funniest parts of Google Doodle Baseball is the pitcher’s expression. Each throw is delivered with exaggerated style. It adds to the overall comedy of the game.
