Former PGA Tour player Matt McQuillan has died at 45 years old.<\/p>\n

The Canadian from Kingston, Ontario, died on Aug. 5 “surrounded by his family,” according to an obituary published in the Kingston Whig-Standard newspaper.<\/p>\n

McQuillan earned a scholarship to play collegiately at Oklahoma State, where he began his college career in 2000 before later transferring to the University of Georgia. He turned professional in 2003 and ultimately played in 32 PGA Tour events, making the cut in nine of those starts.<\/p>\n

McQuillan’s best finish on Tour came in 2011 when he finished T-3 at the John Deere Classic, which came in large part due to an impressive final round 64. He tied for third alongside two-time major champion Zach Johnson.<\/p>\n

His most recent appearance in a PGA Tour-sanctioned event came on the PGA Tour Canada circuit in September 2016.<\/p>\n

According to the PGA Tour<\/a>, McQuillan stayed connected in the game as a teaching professional in his hometown and introduced the game to the next generation of players across Canada.<\/p>\n

“Matty was a respected golfer, devoted son, hilarious brother, and friend. His father, Mark, started teaching him how to swing the club at the young age of ten and his passion and talent grew immensely,” the Whig-Standard obituary reads.<\/p>\n

“Starting as a junior on the Canadian Tour and making it to the PGA in 2011, Matt developed lifelong friendships while mentoring anyone who loved the game of golf<\/a>. There will be a celebration of life held at the ANAF at a later date to be determined and announced by family. He will be deeply missed by many and his spirit, love and compassion will be remembered every day. Rest easy, Matty. We love you.”<\/p>\n

McQuillan earned just under $604,000 during his PGA Tour career.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
