Taylor Pendrith is one of the leading Canadian golfers in the men’s game, securing his maiden PGA Tour victory in 2024.
Born in Richmond Hill, Ontario in March 1991, it would be another 12 years before Pendrith first took up the sport of golf. He went on to study at Kent State University alongside fellow PGA Tour professionals Corey Conners and Mackenzie Hughes, and they have become three of the best Canadians in the game right now.
He turned professional in 2014, but Pendrith would have to wait five years before he claimed his first piece of silverware. That came on the PGA Tour of Canada, where he won twice in 2019. Another five years would pass before he secured a maiden PGA Tour title – with that coming at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson in May 2024.
