An emerging talent with the pedigree to become one of the sport’s elite, Tuff captured the Herman Flad Memorial Award as the WPCA’s Most Improved Driver in 2023. The 2025 season saw him record six top ten runs, including three top five finishes. His best overall result came at the Teepee Creek Stampede, where he placed eighth in the aggregate standings. Tuff will be one of the Chuckwagon 101 Drivers at the 2026 Calgary Stampede Rangeland Derby.
Tuff began his driving career with the Western Chuckwagon Association in 2018, earning Top Rookie Driver honours, and followed that up by receiving the WCA Sportsmanship Award in 2019. He made his WPCA Pro Tour debut at the Battle of the Foothills in High River in 2021.
A third-generation chuckwagon competitor, Tuff is the grandson of chuckwagon legend Kelly Sutherland and the son of fellow driver Dean Dreger and 2024 Ty Tournier Memorial Award winner Tara Dreger. Away from the track, he enjoys playing hockey and guitar. Tuff is single and makes his home in Grande Prairie, Alberta.
