"Richard Fletcher "Dicky" Pride III" is an American professional golfer who has played on the PGA Tour and the Nationwide Tour.

Pride was born in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. He attended Tuscaloosa Academy and the University of Alabama, where he was a member of Alabama Crimson Tide golf/the golf team. Pride was named All-Southeastern Conference his junior and senior years. At Alabama, he was a member of Delta Kappa Epsilon Fraternity. He was a semifinalist at the 1991 U.S. Amateur. He turned professional in 1992 and played in that season's U.S. Open (golf)/U.S. Open, where he missed the cut.

Pride became a full-time PGA Tour member after his finish at the 1993 qualifying school. Pride earned his only win to date at the 1994 Federal Express St. Jude Classic, his 19th PGA Tour start. He won that event with a birdie on the first extra hole of a playoff against Hal Sutton and Gene Sauers. His best finish in a Men's major golf championships/major was a tie for 28th at the 2003 U.S. Open (golf)/U.S. Open.

Pride developed severe health problems in 2002 (gall bladder, pancreatitis, plantar fasciitis, broken bones) which severely limited his playing time. For the next decade, he split his playing time between the PGA Tour and the Nationwide Tour. He lives in Orlando, Florida, but remains an avid Crimson Tide fan.

The golf course is playing very difficult and I'm playing very solid. The greens are in such good shape, you can trust your read. You can expect it to go where you want it to.

He'll hang in there, for sure. It's going to be a big test for him. He's going to learn a lot this week.
