Samuel William Randolph (born May 13, 1964) is an American professional golfer who has played on the PGA Tour and the Nationwide Tour.

Early life

Born in Santa Barbara, California, Randolph learned the game of golf from his father, Sam Randolph Sr., who was the head professional at La Cumbre Country Club for 38 years.[1] As a teen, Randolph and fellow future PGA Tour player, Billy Andrade, won the Junior World Cup in 1981.

Amateur career

Randolph played college golf for the University of Southern California and was a three-time first-team All-American with 13 collegiate wins. After finishing as runner-up in 1984, he won the U.S. Amateur the following year. Randolph also won the California State Amateur, the Haskins Award, and was low amateur at The Masters in 1985. In 1986, Randolph was the low amateur at the Masters Tournament and the U.S. Open.

Professional career

In late 1986, Randolph turned pro and joined the PGA Tour. He played on the PGA Tour from 1987 to 1992, and won one event, the 1987 Bank of Boston Classic.[1] His best finish in a major championship occurred as an amateur; T-18 at The Masters in 1985.[2]

From 1993 to 2002, Randolph split his playing time between the PGA Tour and the Nationwide Tour, mostly on the Nationwide Tour. He had three T-2 finishes in Nationwide Tour events in the 1990s, but no victories. After his playing career waned, Randolph moved into the teaching ranks.

Awards and honors

Randolph was inducted into the USC Sports Hall of fame in 2005.
