Joseph Francis Sylvester (February 2, 1893 – October 28, 1976) was an American professional golfer and club maker who played in the early-to-mid 20th century.
His best performances in major golf championships were a T24 finish in the 1923 U.S.
Open and a T9 showing in the 1920 PGA Championship.
In September 1910, the 17-year-old former caddie won the Greater New York Championship at the Van Cortlandt Park links, beating William Wallace.
