The Rock’s 490 yard drive

The Rock claims to have hit a humongous 490 yard drive.

Fair play to the big man but not even the best players in the world could come close to reaching 490 on the par 5-12th which was playing downhill and down-wind at Austin Country Club last week. The likes of Dustin Johnson and Jon Rahm were putting on a driving show but even they couldn’t come close. It’s certain that the Rock can crunch a drive but we will see when he makes an appearance at the World Long Drive Championships.
