Spike McRoy
Robert Lynn "Spike" McRoy Jr. (born May 20, 1968) is an American professional golfer who has played on the PGA Tour and the Nationwide Tour.
McRoy was born and raised in Huntsville, Alabama. He got his nickname Spike from his great uncle, a Ty Cobb fan, who sent McRoy a miniature Detroit Tigers uniform when he was born. Cobb was known for his aggressive base running – often "spiking" opposing infielders as he rounded the bases. McRoy graduated from Virgil I. Grissom High School in 1986.
He attended the University of Alabama graduating with a bachelor's degree in corporate finance in 1991. He was on the Alabama Crimson Tide golf team while there.
McRoy turned professional after graduating from the University of Alabama. McRoy has split his playing time between the PGA Tour and the tour's developmental tour relatively equally throughout his career, and has just over a half-dozen top-10 finishes in each tour. He was the top money winner on the Buy.com Tour in 2000 with $300,638 in earnings with victories at the Buy.com Dakota Dunes Open and the Buy.com Tour Championship. In 2002, he captured his first win in a PGA Tour event at the B.C. Open. McRoy last played a full PGA Tour season in 2005 and continues to compete occasionally on the PGA Tour and Web.com Tour.
McRoy was inducted into the Huntsville-Madison County Athletic Hall of Fame in 2009.
McRoy is married with three children and lives in Huntsville.
Note: McRoy never played in the Masters Tournament.
