Jeff Gallagher has grown up with golf all his life. His family has golfing roots that start with
Jeff’s Dad who has been a club professional in Marion, Indiana for many years. Jeff is not the only
Gallagher to have a successful playing career. Jeff’s older brother, Jim Gallagher Jr. has been a
regular on the PGA TOUR for many years. Jeff’s sister, Jackie Gallagher-Smith, is a successful LPGA
TOUR star.Jeff developed his game during the early 1990’s on the Nike Tour. Hard work and dedication
have earned Jeff his PGA TOUR card. In 1998, he enjoyed his best year on the PGA TOUR. The 1998
season included a tie for 6th place at the Nissan open and a tie for 8th at the Buick Open. These
finishes helped Jeff become exempt on the 1999 PGA Tour season by being in the top 125 players on the
money list. Due to a brief shoulder injury, Jeff could not play to his full potential on the 1999 PGA TOUR.
Family life is top priority for Jeff. He lives with his wife and two daughters in Henderson, Nevada. He
spends his free time with his family or fishing and hunting with friends. Jeff is known for his humor and
