Larry Murphy

As the Moorhead Country Club Head Professional, Murphy has spent the past 44 years as an important mentor and community member. Since becoming a PGA member in 1969 Murphy has mentored many employees and assistant pros that have passed through the Moorhead golf shop, many of whom perused are still in the golf industry. One of his many accomplishments includes the creation of the Fargo-Moorhead Junior Tour, which provided an excellent environment for junior golfers to learn competition golf. During the off-season Murphy was active in youth sports by refereeing high school and college hockey games.

Murphy has served on the Minnesota Section PGA Board as well as the Dakota Chapter Board. He has won numerous awards from both sections, including Golf Professional of the Year four times (at the chapter level, 1995, 1996, 2000 and 2008), and the Section level (1989). Murphy has inspired many people through the game of golf as well as his presence in the community.
