Andrew David Putnam (born January 25, 1989) is an American professional golfer on the PGA Tour.

Early years

Born and raised in Tacoma, Washington, Putnam graduated high school in 2007 from Life Christian Academy. His older brother Michael also plays on the PGA Tour.

Putnam played college golf in southern California at Pepperdine University in Malibu from 2007 to 2011. He won two tournaments and was a three time All-American.[1]

Career

Putnam turned professional in 2011, and he played on the eGolf Professional Tour in 2012.[2] He first played on the Web.com Tour in 2013 and was 49th on the money list, not enough to earning a PGA Tour card. Putnam won for the first time as a professional in April 2014 at the WNB Golf Classic.[3] He made his PGA Tour debut at the Shell Houston Open in 2014, where he played in the same tournament as Michael, but missed the cut. Putnam finished eighth in the Web.com Tour Finals that year to earn his PGA Tour card for the 2014–15 season. He gained his first PGA Tour win in August 2018 at the Barracuda Championship, an alternate event near Reno, Nevada.
