Richard Fletcher Pride III (born July 15, 1969) is an American professional golfer who plays on the PGA Tour Champions.
Pride earned his only win to date at the 1994 Federal Express St. Jude Classic, his 19th PGA Tour start.
He won that event with a birdie on the first extra hole of a playoff against Hal Sutton and Gene Sauers.
In 2011, Pride was actively fund-raising for Alabama natives affected by the tornado that hit his hometown of Tuscaloosa.
Dufner holed a 25-foot birdie putt from a similar position on the green to deny Pride his first victory in almost 18 years (a win would have established a PGA Tour record for longest time between wins, beating Robert Gamez by over two years).
Overall, Pride played in 19 events, made 12 cuts, earned $1,259,712, played in three stages of the FedEx Cup, and finished 70th on the 2012 money list, earning a full Tour card for 2013 and entry into invitational tournaments reserved for the top 70 money earners.
