Benjamin Evans (born 13 December 1986) is an English professional golfer who has played on the European Tour.

Education

Evans was educated at Claremont Preparatory School, St Leonards-on-Sea and then at Millfield School, Somerset (2000–04).

Professional career

Evans finished second at The Foshan Open in 2014.[1] This result helped him to a 17th-place finish in the Order of Merit for the 2014 Challenge Tour that gave him conditional status on the European Tour.

In 2015, Evans finished 110th on the European Tour and thus retained full status for the 2016 season. He initially was placed 111th and looked to have missed full status, but later gained full status for 2016 after Brooks Koepka relinquished his European Tour membership for 2016 and was removed from the rankings.[2]
