Longest Drive Ever Recorded

The longest drive ever recorded in a professional golf competition is 515 yards (471 meters) by Mike Austin in the 1974 U.S. National Senior Open. However, it's worth noting that this distance was not officially recognized by the PGA Tour, as it was not measured by a standard distance-tracking device.

In terms of the longest drive ever recorded with a standard distance-tracking device, the record is 475 yards (434 meters) by Davis Love III at the 2004 Mercedes Championships.
