Robert Damron played golf at the University of Central Florida from 1991-94 before leaving to turn professional. He was a three-time honorable mention All-American and set the school record for the most wins in school history with five, including the prestigious invitation-only John Hancock All-American Tournament. He helped the team to two NCAA Regional berths and competed at the Regional as an individual the third year. He was the first from UCF to make it full-time to the PGA Tour and the first to win a tournament there, defeating Scott Verplank in a playoff at the 2001 Byron Nelson Classic.
