Timeline

1940

He tied for 40th at Q-school, earning his card with a two-shot cushion.

Perry and his benefactor agreed on 5 percent, and he has maintained that commitment to Lipscomb ever since in the form of a scholarship for residents of Simpson County, Kentucky.

In Perry's first few seasons, he struggled to retain his qualification status.

1960

James Kenneth Perry (born August 10, 1960) is an American professional golfer who currently plays on the PGA Tour Champions.

1982

Perry turned professional in 1982.

He failed in his first two attempts to qualify for the PGA Tour at Q-school.

He missed by 1 stroke one year and received word that his wife had gone into labor during the fourth round the next year.

He had been sponsored by a group of about twenty individuals, many local citizens from Franklin, in his early play on the mini-tours and his first two attempts at Q-school.

1985

In 1985, a Franklin businessman and David Lipscomb University (now simply Lipscomb University) graduate lent him $5000 for a last shot at Q-school.

Rather than repay the loan, he was asked to give a percentage of his tour earnings to Lipscomb if he qualified.

1987

He made his first big (for the time) check on the PGA Tour ($55,000) with a T-4 finish at the Panasonic Las Vegas Invitational in May 1987.

Shortly after that tournament, Perry repaid all of the money put up by all of his original sponsors, even though he had no legal obligation to do so.

1990

1991

Perry got his first win in 1991 at the Memorial Tournament.

In 1996, Perry was in contention at the PGA Championship held at Valhalla in his native Kentucky.

He had a one shot lead on the last hole but took a bogey and proceeded to be beaten in the playoff by Mark Brooks.

1999

He was eager to make the team as the event was being held in his native Kentucky, and he helped the USA win the cup for the first time since 1999.

2003

He was in the top-10 of the Official World Golf Ranking for over 100 weeks from 2003 to 2005 and 2009 to 2010.

2008

However, in 2008, he had a steady start making 10 cuts in his first 11 tournaments, and beginning in the middle of May he had six top ten finishes in eight starts, including three victories in the Memorial Tournament, the Buick Open, and the John Deere Classic (in which he beat Jay Williamson and Brad Adamonis in a playoff).

He received some criticism for skipping major championships in 2008 in order to concentrate on qualifying for the Ryder Cup team.
