SGA’s Policy on Amateur Status
The SGA has enunciated its policy on amateur status of golfers so as to keep the amateur game as free as possible from abuses that may follow from uncontrolled sponsorship and financial incentives.
The Rules of Golf are constantly evolving. Every Four years, there is a review of the Rules of Golf. The R&A website has a summary of changes to these Rules which you should be familiar with if you are to make the Rules of Golf work in your favour.
The R&A and the USGA have agreed on a list of conforming and non-conforming drivers. This list came into effect on 01 January 2008. The list is regularly updated, and it would be in your interest to check the list before buying that driver you have been eyeing.
