David M. Tentis has found success as a competitive amateur and professional golfer, both home and abroad. He has beat the best at home, winning the State Amateur title in 1984 and the State Open in 2002, and abroad, playing for a victorious U.S. Walker Cup team (1983), and winning on the Canadian Tour (1987). He has qualified for four PGA Championships (2002-2005) and a U.S. Open (1984), as well as earning a coveted invitation to the 1984 Masters Tournament. Injury ended his tenure on the PGA Tour (1989-90), yet since that time Tentis has been a competitive force on the local professional scene, winning the Tapemark Charity Pro-Am four times, the Minnesota Golf Champions three times, and a Minnesota Section PGA championship.
