We get lots of questions about eligibility...and the definition of Amateur versus Professional. We understand this topic is somewhat "gray" to some. But, the USGA (R&A and Canada Golf) guidelines for determining amateur status are no longer part of the answer. As of January 2022 long drive, as a sport, is no longer governed by the USGA or R&A. We are governed by the Long Drive Federation which consists of 12+ countries working together to unify our sport.
We hope this helps to clear the confusion. Let us know HERE if you have any questions.
