I'm Eric J. Mac Donald, a dedicated PGA Professional with over a decade of experience helping golfers at all levels improve their game through a blend of proven systems, personalized coaching, and a deep understanding of performance. I hold an MBA from Boston University and multiple elite certifications, including TPI (Titleist Performance Institute), TrackMan Level 2, SAM PuttLab Level 3, and more—each representing a commitment to data-driven, results-oriented instruction.

​

In 2023, I was honored as the Assistant Golf Professional of the Year by the South Florida PGA Southeast Chapter, a recognition of both my leadership at The Old Course at Broken Sound and the lasting impact I strive to make on every student and facility I serve.

​

My teaching philosophy focuses on five key areas: the Power Game, Short Game, Putting Game, Scoring Game, and Mental Game. Whether it's helping you gain 15+ yards off the tee, sharpen your wedge control, or build the mental toughness required to compete under pressure, my approach is comprehensive, individualized, and rooted in modern sports science.

​

I’ve competed in PGA Tour and high-level regional events, and I bring that competitive insight into every lesson, blending tour-tested strategy with actionable drills and feedback. My ultimate goal is to help you become a confident, well-rounded player—not just someone who hits balls, but someone who plays the game with purpose and mastery.

I aspire to become one of the most respected PGA Professionals in the country, leading not only through instruction but through mentorship, innovation, and a genuine love for the game. Whether you're a competitive golfer, a beginner, or a facility looking to enhance operations and member engagement, I’m here to help you elevate every aspect of your golf experience.
