Troy Kelly (born August 2, 1978) is an American professional golfer who plays on the PGA Tour.
Kelly became the youngest player to ever compete in Washington State Junior Golf Association (WJGA) tournaments at the age of 6. He was the WJGA state champion at age 11 and 13. He won more than 40 tournaments in his junior golf career. He turned professional after graduating from the University of Washington in 2003.
Kelly played on mini tours from 2003 to 2008. He played on the Gateway Tour in 2003, 2005 and 2006 where he won two events. He played on the Golden State Tour in 2007 and 2008 where he won multiple events. He also won the AG Spanos California Open on the AG Spanos Tour in 2006. He also played on the Canadian Tour in 2008.
Kelly joined the PGA Tour in 2009, earning his card through qualifying school. He struggled, making only 3 of 17 cuts. He also play in 10 Nationwide Tour events that year and finished in second at the Chattanooga Classic. He only played in 10 Nationwide Tour events in 2010 due to an arthritic hip. In 2011 he recorded four top-10 finishes including two runner-up finishes and a third place finish en route to finishing 11th on the money list, good enough for a PGA Tour card for 2012.
