JAMIE SADLOWSKI
Jamie Sadlowski’s rapid rise to the
top echelon of power golf has been
nothing short of spectacular. The
Canadian phenom, a former junior
hockey player from St. Paul, Alberta,
made an immediate impact on the sport
of long drive.
The 24-year-old Long Drive Professional
is known for his incredibly athletic swing and the outrageous ball speed he
creates at impact. In fact, Sadlowski became an internet sensation last year
when he put a hole through the Golf Channel simulator while making an
appearance on one of their shows.
Twice a junior world long drive champion, Sadlowski subsequently stepped
up on the big stage at the RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship in
Mesquite, Nevada and won back-to-back titles in 2008 and 2009. His win in
2008 included a record for longest winning drive in the finals (418 yards). He
has 6 consecutive television finals and has never finished worse than 5th in
the world since he started competing. Couple that with one other LDA Tour
victory and 5 other finals, Jamie has produced an unmatched competition
record since taking the tee.
Showing his amazing versatility, Jamie teed it up on the web.com tour and
was successful in his first start by making the cut. Plans are for Jamie to play
a couple Canadian & Oversees PGA Tour events to keep his game sharp. Look
for Jamie to also play in the annual Peter Jacobsen Pro-Ams and other similar
pro events.
Sadlowski has parlayed his prowess with the big stick into a career as a
power golf entertainer. Having set up a U.S. base of operations at Whisper
Rock in Scottsdale, Arizona, Sadlowski is in incredible demand for top
country clubs, Fortune 500 Companies and top charities to be their
entertainer of choice. In 2013 Jamie signed a multi-year deal with Callaway
Golf as a brand ambassador and will travel the world displaying and
promoting their products. All in all Jamie will travel more than 230 days this
year performing his shows.
Don’t miss the Golf Clinic with Jamie Sadlowski at 10:30am at
our 19th Annual Invitational Golf Classic on March 9th!
