Golden Bear Club Member earns Fourth Career PGA Tour victory in La Quinta, Calif.

Windermere, Fla. --- The Golden Bear Club at Keene’s Pointe in Windermere has special cause to celebrate: Golden Bear member and PGA pro Brian Gay came from behind to post his fourth career PGA Tour victory on January 21 at the Humana Challenge in partnership with The Clinton Foundation tournament at PGA West in La Quinta, Calif. Matthew Allen, general manager and director of golf at The Golden Bear Club at Keene's Pointe, said many Golden Bear members followed Gay’s victory stroke for stroke and the clubhouse erupted after his winning putt. Gay told PGA golf writer Helen Ross he thought he had lost the tournament when he shot par on the 72nd hole, but he played aggressively and turned a six-stroke deficit at the start of the day into back-to-back playoff birdies. A five-footer on the second extra hole proved to be the winning stroke. “Gay is very well liked around the Golden Bear Club and we’re all excited for him,” Allen said.
