Ronald Raymond Streck (born July 17, 1954) is an American professional golfer who has played on the PGA Tour and Nationwide Tour, and is a current player on the Champions Tour.
Streck was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma. His father started him playing golf at age 3 1⁄2. He attended the University of Tulsa from 1973 to 1976, and was twice an All-American. He turned pro in 1976.
Streck had several notable "firsts" in the annals of professional golf, earning him the nickname "Milestone Man". He was the first PGA player to play with Metalwoods.
