Edward George Fryatt (born 8 April 1971) is an English former professional golfer who played on the PGA Tour and the Asian PGA Tour.
Fryatt was born in Rochdale. At the age of four he moved with his family to Las Vegas, Nevada,[1] where his father was coaching. He took up golf at the age of 13, before attending University of Nevada, Las Vegas in his home town, and turning professional when he graduated in 1994.
Fryatt joined the Nike Tour in 1995, but after an unsuccessful first season he opted to play in Asia, where he won five times in three years between the Asia Golf Circuit, the Asian PGA Tour and the Korean Tour.[2] In 1999, he returned to the Nike Tour, and won once on his way to earning promotion to the PGA Tour for the first time.
In his debut PGA Tour season in 2000, Fryatt recorded five top-10 finishes, including a tie for third and finished 77th on the money list. He recorded two further top-10s in the 2001 season, but lost his playing rights after 2002. In 2003, he returned to the Nationwide Tour, but missed the cut in all eighteen events he played. His last appearance on either tour was in 2005.
At the 1997 U.S. Open, Fryatt became one of the few players in history to be penalised a stroke for slow play.[3]
In 2013, Fryatt, applied and received his amateur status back from the USGA.
Fryatt's father, Jim, was a professional footballer for a number of English clubs.[4]
Fryatt's ex-wife Michelle was named Mrs International in 2003. They have one adopted daughter together.[5]
