About Evan

Evan Silkworth, a Poughkeepsie native, began tournament golf in high school and graduated to NCAA competition before turning professional in 2009. In addition to serving as the Head Golf Professional at Marine Park Golf Course, Evan founded the Silkworth Golf Academy, and has been teaching golf for over a decade.
