Cameron Tringale

Cameron Tringale has been through it all during his time on the PGA Tour. However, in 12 years as a member and through 303 total events, the 30-year old Tringale has yet to record a win on tour.

Since 2011, Tringale has consistently found himself with multiple top-10 finishes in a season. In fact, over the course of his 300 PGA Tour starts, Tringale has accumulated 70 top-25 finishes, which accounts for nearly a quarter of the events he has participated in.

It is hard to pinpoint exactly what is holding Tringale back from capturing a victory. Unlike the other golfers on this list, Tringale does not visibly struggle in one area more than others.

Tringale ranks within the top-50 in strokes gained tee-to-green, strokes gained approach-to-green, strokes gained around-the-green and strokes gained putting. The only outlier is Tringale’s strokes gained off-the-tee, where he ranks No. 94 on tour.

Tringale is on this list because something finally has to give. For such a solid player to play so long and not record even a single victory just does not make sense. If Tringale continues to play at the consistently high level he always has, a win will come sooner rather than later.
