    Hey Team Titleist, 

    The PGA Championship is underway, but before the year's final major began Thursday, players competed in the Long Drive Competition off No. 10 at Quail Hollow Club. The 10th hole is a par-5 that runs 592 yards and Titleist Brand Ambassador Byeong Hun An was the defending champion after sending his drive 347 yards at Baltusrol Golf Club in 2016. 

    At this year's Long Drive Competition, Titleist Brand Ambassador Jason Kokrak kept the title in Team Titleist with a 321-yard drive and winning by five yards.
