Career
Fryatt joined the Nike Tour in 1995, but after an unsuccessful first season opted to play in Asia, where he won four times in three years on the Asian Tour. In 1999, he returned to the Nike Tour, and won once on his way to earning promotion to the full PGA Tour for the first time.
In his debut PGA Tour season in 2000, Fryatt recorded five top-10 finishes, including a tie for third, and finished 77th on the money list. He recorded two further top-10s in a consistent 2001 season, but lost his playing rights after a poor 2002. In 2003, he returned to the Nike Tour, by then renamed as the Nationwide Tour, but missed the cut in all eighteen events he played, although he did make the cut in his one PGA Tour event that year. His last tournament on either tour was in 2005.
At the 1997 U.S. Open, Fryatt became one of the few players in history to be penalised a stroke for slow play.
In 2014, Fryatt, applied and received his amateur status back from the USGA. He currently playing local and national amateur events.
