Dave Wilson - Career Consultant, PGA of America

Dave Wilson spent a decade as a successful golf professional and now works as a career consultant for the PGA of America, helping to better the lives and careers of PGA Professionals.

The son of Irish parents, Dave grew up in Quincy, MA and began caddying at Wollaston Golf Club in middle school. He continued his loops at Wollaston throughout his time attending BC High before earning a Ouimet Scholarship. His college choice was Penn State, graduating from its PGM program in 2012.

Wilson’s career as a PGA professional has taken him to some of the most prestigious golf courses both nationally and beyond, including Spyglass Hill in Pebble Beach, Shinnecock Hills on Long Island, Cape Kidnappers in New Zealand, The Country Club in Brookline, Hole in the Wall in Naples, Florida, Somerset Hills in New Jersey, and eventually Hyannisport on the Cape, where he was the head pro beginning in 2018. 

Dave has served as a board member for The Fund for the last three years and is a member of the Club Relations Committee. We’re extremely grateful for his dedication as a mentor in the game of golf, and for his promotion of our life-changing scholarship opportunities to young men and women in Massachusetts.
