FOR FREE ESTIMATES PHONE 623-5410 G.et with the ýACTION F rom Tee To Green by ALEX SHIELDS Professional at Bowmanville Golf Club The life of the touring pro appears ta many ta be a very pleasant way of mraking a living. Indeed it may be if you can stand the pressure of making those agonizing three foot putts for pars anc of which can mean thousands af dollars, They travel from city ta cityc starting in California in. JanuaTy and. jwinging during the summer m-onths. The successful ones we through the Southern States and then play a tourna- during the summer months. The succssful ones we watch an television certainly appear in an enviable position when we see them collect those enormous cheques for four rounds of golf. But how did these fellows get started playing the tour and how does one get on the tour today? Up üntil 20 years or so, when there were much fewer tournan-ents, it was easy, ail a fellow had ta do was declare himself a professional, enter the tourna- ment and play. As the tour expanded the American P.G.A. (Professional Golfers Association) who contra] the tour, ruled that only players issued with an Ap- proved Players Card could enter tournarnents. Tol obtain this card an aspiring star had ta f iii in a! lengthy form showing proof, by giving details of hisii golf ing talents, that he was able ta play a good game' of golf. Now-a-days one must s tili have an Approved'! Players Card ta enter the large taurnarnents, but here is what has ta be done ta get one. He still must fi in a form giving details of his' golf ing experience in local taurnamenm play ail this being verified and co-signed by a senior P.G.A mcm- ber. lHe must guarantee financiai security ta the ex- tent of $6,000 (last year it was 6 thousand and I believe this year it -nay be 8 thousand). He must also guar- antee ta play in a minimum of 15 tournaments il issued with an Approved Players Card. If everything is in order and he can raise the money, he is then in- vited, along with about 200 other hapefuls ta attend a 2 week seminar at P.G.«A. Headquarters in Palm1 Beach, Florida- at bis own expense. During this period he will attend classes and lec- tures every mamning and play two 72-hale tourna-1 ments. These lectures cansist mainly of discussing rules, etiquette, player-sponsor relationship etc- with emphasis on the rules. At the end of two weeks he f ilîs in a questionnaire consistîng of about 200 "true or false" questions. If he has been paying attention andi successfully passes the academic portion and is anc of the low scorers in the tournaments he bas a good chance of being anc o! the 20 or 22 ta be approved ta play onthe tour.
