Raymond Loran "Ray" Floyd (born September 4, 1942) is an American professional golfer who has won numerous tournaments and four major titles on both the PGA Tour and Champions Tour. He was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 1989.
Born at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, Floyd was raised in Fayetteville. His father L.B. had a 21-year career in the U.S. Army, much of it at Fort Bragg as the golf pro at its enlisted men's course. He also owned a nearby driving range where Raymond and younger sister Marlene, a future LPGA tour pro, honed their games. From an early age, Floyd could play equally well left-handed, and used his skills to enhance his allowance, winning money from soldiers on the course, as well as civilians in nearby towns.
Floyd graduated from Fayetteville High School in 1960. Skilled in golf and baseball, he had an offer to pitch in the Cleveland Indians organization, but chose to attend the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, but only stayed for a semester.

A six-time PGA TOUR winner, Raymond Floyd had not tasted victory on the PGA TOUR since the previous summer when he won the Kemper Open in his home state of North Carolina. To his own admission, he was striking the ball well, but not putting well enough to stay atop leader boards early that season. Like all players, Floyd knew if he was going to compete at the Masters, putts would need to start falling. Floyd’s confidence translated into an opening round 65, two shots better than Nicklaus. That lead over Nicklaus and the rest of the field grew to five after a solid 66 the following day. In the first three rounds, Floyd had 11 birdies and an eagle on the par 5s. Remarkably, Floyd had hit more par 5 greens in two, than number of bogeys on his card. As a result, Floyd’s 54-hole total of 201...

Floyd's swing is all over the place: no teacher would ever encourage a student to emulate anything about this action except the rhythm and tempo and the eventual (great) results, which, of course, means expert impact alignments.
