Brandt Newell Snedeker (born December 8, 1980) is an American professional golfer who plays on the PGA Tour.

Following this victory, he moved into the top ten of the Official World Golf Ranking for the first time in his career.

In February 2013, after winning the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, he moved to a career high of number four in the world.

He made eight consecutive cuts starting at the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic in January and ending at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in March.

From May to early June, Snedeker made the cut in two of the four tournaments he entered, including a T12 finish at the prestigious Players Championship.

Snedeker picked up his first PGA Tour victory the next week at the Wyndham Championship in North Carolina.

The following week Snedeker had a chance to win his second PGA Tour title at the Valero Texas Open but made a number of mistakes on the back nine on Sunday which cost him victory, eventually finishing alone in 4th.

Snedeker won his second PGA Tour title at The Heritage, beating Luke Donald in a sudden-death playoff at the third extra hole.

This sidelined him for six to eight weeks at the end of year, however Snedeker confirmed he wished to have surgery at this stage in order to be fully fit for the 2012 season.

Snedeker won his third PGA Tour title at the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines.

Stanley had a three stroke lead coming to the final hole, but pitched his third shot into the water resulting in a triple bogey 8 to take the tournament to a playoff.

[7] He then won in his fifth start of the year, the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am and moved up to a career-high 4th in the Official World Golf Ranking.

[15] Snedeker spent the entire 2013 PGA Tour season inside the top 10 of the World Golf Rankings.

After a winless 2014 including many missed cut and rare top-ten finishes, Snedeker worked in the off-season with his coach Butch Harmon to find new sensation in his swing and especially new mental strength.

[17] This hard work finally paid off at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, where Snedeker won for the second time in three years with the score of −22, three strokes ahead of Nick Watney.

[17] This was the seventh PGA Tour title for Snedeker and the victory lifted him back in the top 50 in the World Ranking.

[18] Snedeker was back to his consistent ways in the 2015 PGA Tour season with frequent places in the top-10 of events.

[22] His brother, Haymes Snedeker, won The Big Break X: Michigan, and earned a shot at Q school and the PGA Tour.
