Life is pretty good for long drive golfer James Tait.

The 29-year-old, who has been involved in the sport for about nine months, claimed his first-ever Long Drive victory at the Long Drive World Series in event in Dubai.

Although he still juggles a full-time job with his love for the sport, he opened up to Sport360 about his future plans and expressed a desire to pursue his passion on a permanent basis.

“I don’t obviously do this full-time. I still have my full-time job, so I try to find a balance between the two is a bit difficult. But I still hit balls five times a week or just whenever I can. It’s still a hobby for me, but hopefully I will do this full-time,” he said.
