Sean "The Beast" Fister Returns for
14th Annual Dennis Memorial Golf Tournament
Sean Fister was the first professional long driver to break the 400 yard barrier in the final round of the World Long Drive Championships at 406 yards and 5 inches in 1997. This three-time ESPN RE/MAX World Long Drive Champion and author of the New York Times bestseller The Long Drive Bible will join golfers again this year at the George J. Dennis Memorial Golf Tournament on June 25 at McGregor Links Country Club in Saratoga Springs to benefit the Alzheimer's Association of Northeastern New York.
Fister will demonstrate his long drive technique prior to the shotgun, and will be available on one hole throughout the tourney, providing players with one-on-one driving tips. For more information on the tournament registration and sponsorship opportunities click here to visit the web page.
