In 2007, Gunn moved to the United States to turn professional.[1] Gunn played the 2014 season on the Web.com Tour with a best finish of T-18 at the BMW Charity Pro-Am. He is playing the 2015 season on the Gateway Tour.[2]
Gunn finished tied for 27th at the 2015 U.S. Open.[3] To qualify for the open he had to play in both local and sectional qualifying and ultimately qualified as an alternate.
