The PGA is the governing body of professional golf. Their rules and regulations must be adhered to before a golfer can play golf on the tour or any PGA-affiliated event. Failure to adhere to the rules could cost a player money or disqualification from the tour or event.
Regulation Clubs
Depending on the PGA event, golf clubs must meet a certain requirement with head weight.
Drug Tests
Golfers must be drug-free or free from performance-enhancing drugs. Drug tests are administered to golfers on a random basis.
Appropriate Behavior
Throwing clubs and other inappropriate behavior on the golf course is cause for banning a golfer from the course or tour.
Regulation Balls
Regulation golf balls are needed so the player doesn't get an advantage over another player by using a lighter ball.
Making the Cuts
Depending on the event being played, a player must be under the cut number provided by the event leader. Failure to do so will cause the player to be left out of the final rounds of play.
