Andrew Novak claimed his first PGA Tour victory in 2025, showcasing himself off to the world shortly after moving into his 30s.

Born in Raleigh, North Carolina in March 1995, Novak took up the game of golf from a young age, and had a decent amateur career. He turned professional in 2017, and after playing on various mini-tours, he made the move to the Korn Ferry Tour in 2020.

The American would go on to claim his maiden professional victory that year on the KFT, winning the LECOM Suncoast Classic.

Later that year, he also lifted the Grant Thornton Invitational trophy, making it a pair of team wins on the year.

Mention a European country, and Matt will tell you which resorts make the National Club Golfer Top 100s: European Resorts list. He might even throw in who designed the golf course and how many rooms the hotel has got at each one…

Matt got into the game of golf from a young age, following his old man to the local golf club. He fell for the sport, and now can’t seem to go a day without thinking about how to improve his game (Thanks Dad!). Matt has been a member of Howley Hall GC in Leeds since 2020, and is just about managing to maintain a single-figure handicap. He likes to remind people that he once broke 75, but won’t tell people that it was on a shortened course during the winter.

He moved to Leeds after graduating from the University of Central Lancashire with a First Class Honours degree in Sports Journalism. Matt joined NCG after almost five years travelling the world with the Professional Squash Association, working on events in all four corners of the globe.

Matt currently plays a Cobra King LTDx driver and RadSpeed 3-wood. TaylorMade monopolise the rest of his bag, with a SIM UDI, M5 irons and both Milled Grind and HI-TOE wedges, along with a Monza Redline putter. He uses a Vice Pro Plus golf ball, because he’s a bit different…

Away from golf, Matt is a Manchester United fan, and a keen runner, having ran the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon (his first and possibly last), in May 2023.
