Kyle Winn
Memorial Scholarship Fund
The Kyle Winn Memorial Scholarship Fund honors the life and legacy of Kyle Winn, PGA Professional, whose leadership, compassion, and advocacy shaped countless young golfers across California. Kyle believed deeply in the power of golf to build confidence, character, and community — especially for LGBTQ+ youth seeking a place where they could belong and thrive.
This scholarship continues Kyle’s mission by providing meaningful financial support to gay and lesbian students pursuing higher education while remaining engaged in the game he loved. Through annual awards ranging from $5,000 to $25,000, the fund empowers emerging golfers to advance their academic goals, expand their opportunities, and carry forward Kyle’s vision of an inclusive, welcoming golf community.
Rooted in mentorship, diversity, and pride, the Kyle Winn Memorial Scholarship Fund ensures that Kyle’s spirit — his generosity, his courage, and his unwavering belief in young people — lives on in every recipient who steps forward to shape the future of golf.
