Gators on Tour
When it comes to success after college, the University of Florida golf program demonstrates this as well as any university in the country. More than 50 Gators have gone on to play professionally on the PGA Tour, Nationwide Tour and Champions Tour (formerly Senior PGA Tour). Former UF golfers have amassed over $120 million in winnings.
Since 1957 when Doug Sanders, Dave Ragan and Pat Schwab entered the ranks Gator alumni have hoisted the trophies for numerous tournaments, including three of the four majors. Andy North won the U.S. Open twice (1978, ’85), Mark Calcavecchia won the British Open in 1989 and Tommy Aaron took home the coveted green jacket from the 1973 Masters tournament.
