David Eger was an American professional golfer on the Champions Tour. He turned professional in 1978, and in 1982 he went to work as a golf administrator. He served as Director of Tournament Administration for the PGA Tour from 1982–92; Senior Director of Rules and Competition for the USGA from 1992–95; and as Vice-President of Competition for the PGA Tour from 1995-96. As a golf administrator, Eger kept his skills intact by playing competitively as an amateur, winning the 1988 U.S. Mid-Amateur and the North and South Amateur in 1991. He was also a three-time Walker Cup team member and two-time semi-finalist in the U.S. Amateur. Eger won the 2003 MasterCard Classic — the first Champions Tour event ever held in Mexico, he won his second title in 2005 by shooting a final-round 67 in the inaugural Boeing Greater Seattle Classic.
