Professional Golfer · Dominican Republic

Dominican standout with tour mileage, discipline, and a relentless competitive edge—all in on the road to the PGA TOUR.

Willy Pumarol is a Dominican professional golfer from Santo Domingo with deep roots in the game—on a PGA TOUR Americas campaign for 2025 with access to Korn Ferry Q-School (USA) and European Q-School. He grew up immersed in golf, won his first national title at nine, and later competed for Barry University, collecting team wins while sharpening a tour-ready mindset. Turning pro in 2011, he finished runner-up at the Argentine Open and earned status for what became PGA TOUR Latinoamérica, where he has competed in 100+ events.

Why Willy?

Because Willy is proof that heritage plus hunger scales to the world stage. He was born into golf—grandfather (elite amateur), father a player at 14, and Willy swinging since age three but it’s his work ethic that keeps him moving forward: long seasons on PGA TOUR Latinoamérica, constant travel, and a mentality built on discipline, faith, and team effort.

He’s already made history first Dominican under par in a PGA TOUR event and he’s not easing off: PGA TOUR Americas today, Korn Ferry and European Q-Schools on the docket, and a singular mission to carry the Dominican flag onto the PGA TOUR. For brands, that means global visibility, credibility earned in competition, and a leader who inspires the next wave of Dominican talent with every tee shot pointing to what’s next.
