PGA Of America Letting PGA Tour Take The Anchoring Ban Reins
/Mike Stachura reports that after all that huffing and puffing about the anchoring ban, the PGA of America will be leaning on the PGA Tour to determine its future stance on the anchored putting ban.
"As we have seen over the past few months, the Rules of Golf can affect recreational golf in addition to play at the elite level. The PGA of America will continue to confer with the PGA Tour on the subject of Rule 14-1b, and The PGA of America will reserve any public comments on this matter until after the PGA Tour Policy Board meets on July 1."
The decision to let the PGA Tour dictate things was made at Sunriver, Oregon during the PGA Club Pro which ended with a dramatic playoff shot when Rob Labritz, Director of Golf at GlenArbor Golf Club in Bedford, N.Y., holed his third on the par-4 11th at Sunriver Resort (Ore.) to capture the 20th spot.
