Nicolás Echavarría (born 4 August 1994) is a Colombian professional golfer who plays on the PGA Tour. He claimed his first PGA Tour victory in his rookie season at the Puerto Rico Open.
Echavarría attended the University of Arkansas from 2013 to 2017.[1] He also represented Colombia in the Eisenhower Trophy in 2016.
Echavarría turned professional in 2017. He won twice during the 2018 PGA Tour Latinoamérica season, finishing second in the Order of Merit, gaining a card for the 2019 Korn Ferry Tour season.[2]
Echavarría gained a PGA Tour card for the 2022–23 season, via the 2022 Korn Ferry Tour Finals. In March 2023, he won the Puerto Rico Open. He shot a total of 21-under-par to win by two shots ahead of Akshay Bhatia.[3]
In 2015, during his time at the University of Arkansas, Echavarría was suspended from competing by the university after he was arrested and charged with felony voyeurism, alongside Taylor Moore.[4] Charges against him were later dropped when it became apparent he was not involved despite being present when the incident occurred.[5]
Echavarría's brother Andrés is also a professional golfer.[6]
