Kevin Tway is one of the most popular and richest Golfer who was born on July 23, 1988 in Edmond, Edmond, United States. Kevin Tway (born July 23, 1988) is an American professional golfer who has played on the Web.com Tour and the PGA Tour. He won numerous junior tournaments, and most notably, the 2005 U.S. Junior Amateur. Tway is the son of Bob Tway, an eight-time winner on the PGA Tour, including the PGA Championship in 1986. Following Kevin’s maiden PGA Tour win at the Safeway Open in October 2018, they are one of only ten father-son pairs to have won PGA Tour events.
During the 2014 season, Tway made only eight cuts in 23 events with no top-10 finishes. His best finish was a tie for 26th at the 2014 Travelers Championship, and he finished the season 177th in FedEx Cup points, losing his PGA Tour card. Back on the Web.com Tour in 2015, Tway carded two top-10s, with a runner-up finish at the Mexico Championship, but he finished 28th on the money list; three spots shy of regaining his PGA Tour card.
In 2017, Tway’s season began with a slow start without having a top-30 finish in his first eleven starts, but in April, Tway knocked off three consecutive top-5s, finishing T3 at the Valero Texas Open, solo 3rd at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans (partnering with Kelly Kraft), and T5 at the Wells Fargo Championship. Tway also moved from 175th in the FedEx Cup to 55th in those events, virtually locking up his Tour card for the next season. He made the playoffs for the first time and finished the season 69th in points, easily retaining his card for 2018.
On October 7, 2018 (beginning of 2019 season), Tway won the Safeway Open, for his first career PGA Tour victory, in a playoff over Brandt Snedeker and Ryan Moore. Tway birdied the last two holes in regulation to join a three-man playoff. Tway and Moore both birdied the first playoff hole, however Snedeker made par, eliminating him from the playoff. The next hole, Tway and Moore both birdied, forcing a third playoff hole. On the third playoff hole, Tway won with a 10 foot birdie putt.
Tway turned professional in 2011 after graduating from Oklahoma State. He made his professional debut at the 2011 Travelers Championship, with his father caddying for him. He played on the Web.com Tour in 2013 and picked up his first win in July at the Albertsons Boise Open, defeating Spencer Levin on the first playoff hole with a birdie. Both had shot a tournament record 261 (–23). Tway finished 5th on the regular season money list to earn his PGA Tour card for 2014.
