Who is the longest driver in golf history?

Distance off the tee, across eras that used very different equipment. Comparing them is unfair, which is what makes it fun.

   John Daly

   Led the PGA Tour in driving distance in eleven separate seasons.
2. 2
   Bubba Watson

   Led the tour in driving distance four times, all with a pink driver.
3. 3
   Bryson DeChambeau

   Rebuilt his body specifically to hit the ball further, then won the 2020 US Open by six.
4. 4
   Dustin Johnson

   Combined top-five driving distance with a major-winning short game.
5. 5
   Rory McIlroy

   Has finished near the top of the tour's driving-distance list for most of his career.
