Michael C. Turnesa (June 9, 1907 – October 31, 2000) was an American professional golfer.

Turnesa was one of seven golfing brothers: Phil (1896–1987), Frank (1898–1949), Joe (1901–1991), Mike (1907–2000), Doug (1909–1972), Jim (1912–1971), and Willie (1914–2001).

[2] Turnesa's first job in golf came in the pro shop at the Metropolis Country Club.

All told, Turnesa played on PGA Tour for 18 years, winning five times.

He won the 1933 and 1941 Westchester Opens, and the 1949 Metropolitan PGA at Ardsley, but is better known for having finished second to Ben Hogan in both the 1948 PGA Championship and the 1942 Hale America Tournament, the war-time substitute for the U.S. Open.
