Dana C. Quigley (born April 14, 1947) is an American
professional golfer.
Quigley was born in Lynnfield, Massachusetts. He
graduated from the University of Rhode Island in
1969 and turned professional in 1971.
Quigley's career in regular tournament golf was
unremarkable. He worked as a club professional for
many years and had 18 tournament victories in local
tournaments in New England. His best finish on the
PGA Tour was sixth at the 1980 Greater Milwaukee
Open.
In 1997, he became eligible to play in senior golf
tournaments, and he soon became a leading player at
this level. His first win on the Senior PGA Tour
(later called the Champions Tour) came at that
year's Northville Long Island Classic and further
wins followed. In 2005, he led the Champions Tour
money list at age 58 to become the oldest player
ever to win the Arnold Palmer Award for the leading
money-winner on the circuit. He has won 11
tournaments on the tour.
Quigley was elected to the New England section of
the PGA Hall of Fame in 2000. His nephew Brett
Quigley plays on the PGA Tour.
