A professional golfer with four PGA Tour wins, known for his consistent play and strong iron game.
Keith Fergus is a renowned American professional golfer who has left an indelible mark on the sport, with a career spanning over four decades and numerous accolades to his name. He is known for being one of the pioneers to have won on all three PGA Tour-sponsored tours, including the PGA Tour, Nationwide Tour, and Champions Tour.
Born on March 3, 1954, in Temple, Texas, Fergus started playing golf at the tender age of 8. During his high school days, he excelled in football and basketball, but his true passion lay in golf. He attended the University of Houston, where he was a three-time All-American and finished as the runner-up to Jay Haas at the 1975 NCAA Championship.
Fergus turned pro in 1976 and had his most successful years on the PGA Tour in the early 1980s. He achieved over 40 top-10 finishes and clinched three victories during this period. His best finish in a major was a T3 at the 1980 U.S. Open, followed by a T4 at the 1981 PGA Championship. In 1988, he took a break from the tour to accept the head golf coach's job at his alma mater, the University of Houston, a position he held until 1994.
Fergus resumed tour play in the mid-1990s, competing on both the Nationwide Tour and limited PGA Tour events. In 1996, he had a harrowing experience at the Nortel Open, where he was attacked by a swarm of killer bees and stung 10-15 times. His caddie was stung over 50 times in the incident. After turning 50 in 2004, Fergus began playing on the Champions Tour, where he won his first event at the 2007 Ginn Championship Hammock Beach Resort. This victory made him the second player to win on all three PGA Tour-sponsored tours, a feat achieved earlier by Ron Streck in 2005.
Fergus currently resides in Sugar Land, a suburb of Houston, Texas. With a career spanning over 40 years, he has established himself as one of the most prolific golfers of his generation, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire aspiring golfers around the world.
