One of the unique prizes that will be given out at this week’s Epson Classic is a $1,000 cash prize for the player who finished in the Top-5 with the shortest average driving distance for the tournament. The prize, which has been named Short Drive to the Top-5, was generously donated by Bob Mayberry Hyundai.
Duke grad and solo fourth place finisher Lindy Duncan (Jupiter, Fla.) took home the prize with a 233.83 average.
“It’s really cool,” Duncan said. “I wasn’t really expecting it because usually I hit the ball pretty far but the holes they did the measuring on I was able to hit 5-woods so I think that’s probably what helped me to get this money.”
