Robert Edward Heintz (born May 1, 1970) is an American professional golfer who plays on the Nationwide Tour. Heintz was born in Syosset, New York. He was a three-time Ivy League champion at Yale University. Playing as a PGA Tour non-member out of the 151–200 money list category, Heintz had a very close call at the 2010 Reno-Tahoe Open where he missed a 3.5 foot (1.1 m) putt on the final hole to get into a playoff with Matt Bettencourt for an opportunity for his first PGA Tour victory.
