McRoy graduated from Virgil I. Grissom High School in 1986. He attended the University of Alabama graduating with a bachelor's degree in corporate finance in 1991.[3] He was on the Alabama Crimson Tide golf team while there.

Open.[6][7] McRoy last played a full PGA Tour season in 2005 and continues to compete occasionally on the PGA Tour and Web.com Tour.[8] Outside golfMcRoy is married with three children and lives in Huntsville.[9] He was inducted into the Huntsville-Madison County Athletic Hall of Fame in 2009.[8] Professional wins (7)PGA Tour wins (1)
