David Spencer Gossett (born April 28, 1979) is an American

Web.com Tour
(formerly the Nationwide Tour).

Gossett was born in

U.S. Amateur,[3] the Big 12 Championship, and was the Big 12 Student-Athlete of the Year in 1999. He was also a member of the Walker Cup team in 1999.[4]
He turned pro in 2000.

As winner of the U.S. Amateur, Gossett was supposed to play in the U.S. Open in the same group as defending champion Payne Stewart, but Stewart perished in a plane crash in October 1999.

Gossett won his first official PGA Tour event in 2001 at the

Barracuda Championship, but missed the cut in both. Once considered a golf prodigy with comparisons to Peter Hanson, Gossett's PGA Tour status is extremely limited due to lack of play and results. He is currently a commercial real estate agent in Nashville, Tennessee.[5]
