Brendon R. Elliott
Lead Golf Writer

Brendon R. Elliott, PGA, brings three decades of distinguished experience to his role as lead golf writer for RG.org. He combines his expertise as a PGA professional with his passion for golf journalism. Based in Florida, Elliott has established himself as one of the most respected voices in golf media, covering the sport’s biggest events and conducting interviews with its most legendary figures.

As a member of the Golf Writers Association of America, Elliott has built an impressive portfolio covering golf’s premier tournaments, including the PGA Tour, LPGA Tour, the Masters Tournament and the PGA Championship. His journalistic excellence has earned him access to notable interviews with golf legends such as Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, Annika Sorenstam and Keegan Bradley, among many other prominent figures in the sport.

Elliott’s media career spans multiple prestigious platforms, with current and ongoing affiliations including PGA.com and PGA Magazine since 2018, GolfWRX since 2018, MyGolfSpy beginning in 2025 and RG.org since 2024. Through his One More Roll Golf Media company, he has established himself as a premier freelance golf writer, contributing to top golf media sites while also consulting with numerous golf start-up companies to enhance their visibility and market presence.

Beyond his writing accomplishments, Elliott’s distinguished career as a PGA professional has been marked by exceptional dedication to junior golf development. His crowning achievement came in 2017 when he was named the PGA of America National Youth Player Development Award winner, recognizing his outstanding skills and unwavering commitment to nurturing young talent. Throughout his career, he has been recognized multiple times as one of the best golf instructors, both regionally and nationally.

In 2008, Elliott founded Little Linksters, an award-winning youth golf academy that became a cornerstone of junior golf development. Two years later, in 2010, he expanded his mission by founding a sister nonprofit organization dedicated to working with children of all abilities, helping them develop a genuine passion for golf. While Elliott sold the Little Linksters academy in December 2024, he continues to serve as executive director of the nonprofit organization, maintaining his commitment to youth development. Most recently, in January 2025, he launched the BE A GOLFER Academy, specifically designed for competitive teen golfers.

Elliott’s unique combination of hands-on teaching experience, business acumen and journalistic expertise positions him as a comprehensive authority in the golf industry. His ability to bridge the gap between instruction and media has made him an invaluable resource for golf enthusiasts, industry professionals and aspiring players alike. Speaking English and operating from his base in Florida, Elliott continues to shape the narrative of modern golf through his writing while maintaining his deep roots in player development and instruction.
