# Séamus Power (golfer)

Séamus Edmond Power (born 4 March 1987) is an Irish professional golfer who plays on the PGA Tour. His notable achievements include winning the 2021 Barbasol Championship and the 2022 Butterfield Bermuda Championship.

## Early life and amateur career

Power was born in Waterford, Ireland, and has two elder brothers, twins Jack and Willie. Power's mother Philomena died when he was eight years old, leaving his father Ned, a small farmer from Tooraneena, to provide for the family. Power was an ambidextrous hurler during his youth, and started playing golf at West Waterford Golf Club when he was 12. Ned later started an additional job as a welder at Boston Scientific to allow Power to travel to junior golf tournaments across Ireland.
Power was recruited to play college golf at East Tennessee State University where he won five times including the Atlantic Sun Conference Championship in 2007 and 2010.

## Professional career

After graduating from ETSU, Power played on mini-tours while attempting to qualify for the Web.com Tour. He won two events on the eGolf Professional Tour in 2014 and earned his Web.com Tour card for 2015 through qualifying school.
Power had two top-10 finishes on the Web.com Tour in 2015 and finished 72nd on the money list, re-earning a card for 2016. In May 2016, he won the United Leasing & Finance Championship, becoming the first Irish player to win on the Web.com Tour. Power also represented Ireland in the 2016 Olympic tournament.
In July 2021, Power won his first PGA Tour event at the Barbasol Championship. He won the event on the sixth extra hole of a playoff. In doing so, Power became the fifth player from the Republic of Ireland to win a PGA Tour event after Pat Doyle, Peter O'Hara, Pádraig Harrington and Shane Lowry. Power broke into the top 50 for the first time in his career on 17 January 2022, following a third-place finish at the Sony Open in Hawaii. In March 2022, Power earned his maiden Masters Tournament appearance after making the quarter-finals at the 2022 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play. Power made his third straight major cut, after finishing tied for 12th at the 2022 U.S. Open.
In October 2022, Power won his second PGA Tour event at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship. He shot three rounds of 65 en route to a one shot victory over Thomas Detry. Prior to the 2023 Masters Tournament, Power became just the third individual to record back-to-back holes-in-one in the Par 3 Contest.
