Brian Gay Biography
Joseph Brian Gay was born in Fort Worth, Texas on 14th December 1971. He was raised primarily at Fort Rucker, Alabama, where his father was an NCO in the U.S. Army, involved in flight operations. Being an only child, he spent much of his youth at the Fort Rucker golf course, first at the practice area, then on the course. He turned professional in 1994.
Gay joined the PGA Tour in 1999 and picked up his first win on tour at the Mayakoba Golf Classic at Riviera Maya-Cancun in 2008. He had his second win at the Verizon Heritage in 2009 winning the event by ten strokes, finishing at 20-under par. The ten stroke victory is the one of the biggest wins in the PGA Tour's history. His best position on the year-end money list is 31st in 2008. He has featured in the top 50 of the Official World Golf Rankings.
Gay was not exempt to play in the 2009 U.S. Open heading into the St. Jude Classic. He was one of seven golfers who could earn the last spot in the U.S. Open by winning the St. Jude Classic, using the "Winners of multiple PGA Tour events since the last Open" exemption. Gay went on to win by five strokes over David Toms and Bryce Molder for his second wire-to-wire win of the season.
