Biography

Kenneth Allan Still (born February 12, 1935) is an American professional golfer who has played on both the PGA Tour and the Senior PGA Tour.

Still was born in Tacoma, Washington. During his early twenties, he developed a friendship with Los Angeles Dodgers pitchers Sandy Koufax and Don Drysdale. He turned professional in 1953.

Still won three PGA Tour events. In 1969 he won the Florida Citrus Open Invitational in Orlando in the spring, and the Greater Milwaukee Open in the summer.

Still took part in the 1969 Ryder Cup matches. While playing a match with Dave Hill against Brian Huggett and Bernard Gallacher, Still and Hill lost a hole after Hill putted out of turn. While upset with what took place, Hill later said "well we won. So let's forget about it." In the final singles encounter Jack Nicklaus had Tony Jacklin pick up a missable putt so the match would end in a 16-16 tie.

Still had two top-10 finishes in major championships during his career: a 5th place finish at the 1970 U.S. Open, and a T-6 at The Masters in 1971. After reaching the age of 50 in 1985, he began play on the Senior PGA Tour and continued to play in this venue until the late 1990s. He lives in Fircrest, Washington.

Still was elected to the Pacific Northwest Section PGA Hall of Fame in 1995. He is married to wife Linda J. Still (née Evans); they have a son Mark H. Evans.
