  1. Eddie Kilthau a PGA Member is 5'2" and played in th US Open and he played collegiately at Arizona State University, then turned professional in 1981. He became the shortest player to ever play in the United States Open at Oakmont Country Club in Pittsburgh & missed my PGA Tour card by 2 shots in 1986 at PGA West, La Quinta, California. He has been teaching for 26 years in Phoenix, Arizona & he is currently the Director of Instruction at the Vistal Club in Phoenix and owner of Victory Golfworks.


  2. The shortest mail tour golfer would have to be Todd Fujikawa.  I think he's 5'1"

  3. The smallest touring professional is Tadd Fujikawa of Hawaii (Japanese extraction) at 5ft 1inch. It is generally considered that 5' 8" is about the minimum for a touring professional in the modern game but do NOT be put off. Go for it and see how far you go.

  4. Gavin Coles is 5'4

  5. maybe Ian Woosnam, 5'4"

    ..if you love what you do, don't let size stop you from aiming for greatest. Spud Webb was about your height and he slam dunks, he actually won the the NBA slam dunk competition one year. So anythings possible.

  6. Brian Kortan is 5'3"  but I once saw US Open winner Corey Pavin at a tournament and although he was listed at 5'9" I wouldn't say he was more than 5'6" so possibly the shortest major winner?

  7. Ian Woosman but K.J is pretty short too.

  8. i would also say woosnam.  his nickname is the wee-welshman
