JAMIE SADLOWSKI: REWRITING THE RECORD BOOK

Jamie Sadlowski's remarkable resume keeps expanding.

The Canadian sensation added a dominant performance at the 2009 RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship to his 2008 win, making the 21-year-old the first and only back-to-back world champion during the decade.

Sadlowski joined Evan "Big Cat" Williams (1975-76) and countryman Jason Zuback (1996-99) among a select group of repeat winners of power golf's premier event. On the horizon for Sadlowski: a bid for a threepeat in 2010.

Conditions at the 2009 RE/MAX finals effectively curbed Jamie's chances of approaching the finals record of 418 yards he established at Mesquite Sports and Event Complex in 2008. Still, a towering blast of 384 yards into the cool desert air provided a comfortable margin of victory (33 yards) over runner-up Jerimie Montgomery. That followed a series of sets in RE/MAX qualifying rounds during which Jamie peeled off four bills (400 yards) in cold, blustery weather.

Jamie's fearless, full-bore golf swing and electrifying speed at impact stamped the native of St. Paul, Alberta as a future long drive champion as far back as 2005, when he won the first of two RE/MAX junior world titles.

In 2006, at Trophy Club CC in Texas, Jamie set RE/MAX junior world records for the longest drive in qualifying (437 yards) and longest drive in the finals (420 yards).

Expect the former standout in junior hockey, who swapped his hockey stick for a driver, to continue rewriting the record book in power golf.
