Single Figure Golfer, or SFG, refers to an amateur golfer with handicap of 9 or lower. The terms are registered trademarks in Europe, North America, Australia, India and some other countries, owned by former Walker Cup captain Peter McEvoy, Paul Heming and Robert Millar.

There are a number of online communities created for golfers who have achieved this level including the official Single Figure Golfer website. The basis of this website is to provide amateur golfers the chance to qualify and play against Ryder Cup stars in a 3 day golf tournament, the Single Figure Golfer Challenge Cup.
