A consummate professional, Lucas Glover is having a well-earned late career resurgence.
The proud Clemson alum made his professional debut in 2001. Playing the then-Nationwide Tour from 2002-03, Glover earned PGA Tour status beginning in the 2004 season.
Making more than half of his cuts in his rookie season, Glover picked up his first win in 2005 at the FUNAI Classic at Walt Disney World Resort, holing out from a greenside bunker for the win.
Fast forward to 2009 and Glover wins the U.S. Open, surviving a wild-weather week at Bethpage Black. He became the first ever U.S. Open champion to win the event after having to qualify through sectionals.
The 2009 season was his best year on Tour, finishing inside the top 10 on the money list and earning a spot on the Presidents Cup team.
2012 brought a knee injury that tuned Glover into a shell of his former self on the golf course. Continued struggles from 2016-2018 meant Glover would play the 2017-18 season on the now Korn Ferry, then Web.com Tour.
Regaining his PGA Tour card following a Web.com finals run in 2019, Glover hasn’t looked back since. Wins at the 2021 John Deere Classic and the 2023 Wyndham Championship have given a boost to one of the most well-liked guys in the locker room.
