Robert "Bob" Wynn (January 27, 1940 – May 18, 2005) was an American professional golfer who played on the PGA Tour and the Champions Tour.
Wynn turned pro in 1966. His victory at the 1976 B.C. Open was his only career win in a PGA Tour event. Wynn's final-round of 69 was enough to give him a one-stroke victory over Bob Gilder in that tournament. He had 17 career top-10 finishes in PGA Tour events. His best finish in a major championship was a T-24 at the Masters Tournament in 1977.
After reaching the age of 50 in 1990, Wynn joined the Senior PGA Tour, where he also enjoyed one career win. He won the 1993 NYNEX Commemorative. In 1997, he earned $177,874, and finished 2nd in the BankBoston Classic. He last played competitively in 2002, and ended with 12 top-10 finishes in Senior PGA Tour events.
Wynn died in La Quinta, California at the age of 65. He is survived by his daughter, Jennifer of South Carolina and his son Robert of California.
