In the Men’s Long Ball division, it was Kenny Held who seized the crown with a commanding 402-yard bomb, holding off Anthony Tiqui (371 yards) and Ryan Bennett (360 yards) for the title. On the Women’s side, Sierra Everson showcased her power and poise, launching a winning 287-yard drive to top the podium ahead of Shawnna Joyner (208 yards) and Zariah Bilal (65 yards).
The night’s most gripping moment came in the first round of the Men’s Long Ball bracket, where Austin Shulze and Tommy Valles each launched identical 356-yard drives, forcing a sudden death playoff. With tension mounting and the crowd on edge, Shulze edged out Valles with a decisive tiebreaking drive, propelling him into the semifinals in one of the most memorable showdowns of the season.
The 3Ball competitions—where consistency across three drives defines the champion—delivered their own fireworks. Ryan Bennett earned redemption in the Men’s 3Ball, racking up an impressive 953-yard total to claim first place. On the Women’s side, Shawna Joyner took home the title with a steady 548-yard performance, narrowly edging out Sierra Everson’s 542-yard effort.
